Me and the puppies have had a few busy days with lots of visitors. We all enjoy it very much! I am happy to have had all the new puppyfamilies here for visits now and also all of you now knowing which puppy you will get. 
The puppies has now had one more check for Dermoid sinus and other faults by Ridgeback breeder Šárka Štusáková from kennel Anunnaki in Czech, who in three weeks will bring Mr Yellow with her home to Czech. She found nothing! So very pleased with that!

I will treasure every hour I have with the puppies these last three weeks, well, maybe not the first wake hour in the morning, but all other hours I have with the puppies before they move!
They are almost always she sweetest things! ;-)
Below are some photos from today and yesterday, 36-37 days old. All puppies has now been outside checking out the snow for the first time and also played all together in the kitchen. So far they are easy to entertain!
Enjoy the photos!

Today the puppies are 5 weeks old and we will have a new photoshoot. But before I start with that I wanted to share a few photos from yesterday and also a morningvideo of the happy bunch.  When I get up in the morning the first thing I do is clean the puppyarea. After a long night of sleep the puppies are full of energy that they are more than happy to get out of their system! 
This means loud and energetic playtime!
Enjoy the photos and video below and soon more pictures will follow!

It's Christmas time! For me this doesn't really mean a big difference in our daily routine. Having eight 4½ week old puppies at home gives me some limits, but I am not complaining! 
I had Erik here until Christmas morning before he had to leave to go back home to his morning. They day I spend entertaining my dogs with a couple of walks and playing with the puppies. In the late afternoon it was time for me to head to my sisters house to celebrate a short version of Christmas with my whole family.
It was really wonderful, even though I of course which I could have stayed longer. But getting back home and getting into the puppyarea there is no other place I rather be. I think this feeling is like a drug to me. That unconditional love you feel from these little puppies is the best thing ever, and what I love even more is that my grown up puppies still show me this!
Being a breeder is the shit! ;-) 
Only a couple of days left now until they are 5 weeks old and our next photoshoot. We are getting a visit from our puppybyers living furthest away, and I hope they will fall in love with the puppies and pick their boy. After their visit I will try to make my decision to where each puppy will go, based on their apperance and personalities. So hold on for a little bit longer, soon you will all know which one of these pups that is yours!
Below are photos from yesterday and today. Enjoy it!

The puppies are 4 ½ weeks old now and definetely getting wilder each day. The playtimes are getting tougher and they are using those sharp little teeths! Both on each other and visitors! So getting some new toys, cardboardboxes and other things to entertain them.
Erik has also been here with his two dogs Kiwi and Svea. Svea is a german huntingterrier who now is 4 months old and absolutely loving the puppies. She has been allowed by Moa to be in the puppypen with the puppies and play, guessing she is ok to do that since she is only a puppy herself. And also because Moa is a very calm and secure dog, so she accepts pretty much anything that I say is ok. 
Below are a couple of videos and also lots of new photos of the puppies 29-31 days old.

The puppies are 4 weeks today and we had a new photoshoot. They have also been weighed and  they are now around 3-3,5 kg. They have been dewormed for the second time, not all that excited about that... but it was ok when I gave them some tasty food right after! 
Because food is their favorite thing, and it get's pretty loud around feedingtime! They are now eating all together which is easier than one by one, which I had to do when I dewormed them. Because when I take them one by one all the others are crying because they want food aswell! So giving them all at the same time is a lot more quiet!
Enjoy the new individual photos below!

Today the puppes are 27 days old which means they turn 4 weeks tomorrow! Already looking forward to the photoshoot! So fun to compare the pictures and see how much the have developed. We have had our first puppybyers visiting here the past few days and more coming tomorrow!
Nice with some company and nice for the puppies with new people to try those teeth on! 
Below are photos from today and yesterday aswell as a video from today. Enjoy!

The puppies are today 25 days old and they have had their first visit from one of the puppyfamilies. This week they will all start to come over to see them for the first time, and I am happy for the company!
They got a little bit bigger playarea today so they have a some more room to play. They are now beeing few twice a day but also nursing milk from Moa. 
But she has not started to stop them sometimes when she is in there with them. Sometimes she just wants to lay in there and take care of them, but not feed them. Soon they will probably understand better when it is food time and when it is only qualitytime. Now she just escapes if they are getting to intense!
Below are some pictures from yesterday and today! Enjoy!

It has been a busy weekend so no new photos of the puppies... But I had photos from Friday when they were 22 days old that I hadn't posted, so here they are! At least something for you to look at until new photos will be taken!
The puppies are true sweethearts, and I try to spend time with them everytime that they are awake, playing and cuddling. 
They love their daily feeding and scream out loud for more! They are also very social so far, really want the attention, all of them, all the time... !
No photos and videos hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday!

Finally puppies are three weeks old and I took the first real stacked photos of them. Very happy to see how they are looking at this early age. The next few weeks will be sooo interesting!
They were all weighed today and they have all passed 2 kg. Smallest at this point is Ms Red at 2060 g and our biggest is Mr Black at 2670 g.
They are still getting lots of milk from Moa and one meal a day of minced meat from me. Their weights is clearly not a problem! As the weeks go on they will be fed more often by me and get less and less milk from Moa, until the last week or two when they only get food and Moa stops letting them suckle.
You can tell she is not as comfortable anymore since they got their teeth. So she will just enjoy it less and less...
Below are today's individual photos, of course in a Christmas theme since it is Lucia today! Enjoy!

Puppies are 19 days old today and everyone is doing great. I had to work for a few hours today so my dad came to watch them and Moa, and it felt like they had grown just during those few hours I was gone!
It is unbelievable how much I love these little once already! Their personalities has started to shine and they are sooo cuddly! Loves to come up and get some kisses!

This evening I cut their claws for the second time, all 144 of them! I also recieved new covers to my Biabeds, so I could change into the big one for the puppies. More room for them but also better for Moa when she is in there feeding them.
Their little playarea is also a little bit bigger now so they have more room to walk around during their short awake periods during the day.
Only two more days now until they are 3 weeks old and the next individual photoshoot! Time is going sooo fast! Just a little bit over 5 weeks left until they can move! But trying not to think about that now, they are still mine and only mine! ;-)

Here is a bunch of photos from the past two days. The puppies has gotten a little bit of minced elkmeat two days in a row, amazing how fast they got a hang of it! They love it! Guessing today won't be different!
They are doing pretty well with walking out of their dogbed to pee on the papers on the floor, most of the time they make it...
Yesterday I build out the puppybox a little bit giving them a little bit more space to walk around in. They are really becoming more dogs now. A lot more barking, growling and playing. And they are starting to really enjoy every time I come in to cuddle. Real sweethearts that is more than happy to share some wet kisses with you!
Their tiny teeth is starting to break trough, so guessing Moa and her poor nipples will soon have an even harder time! They have started to taste more things, my clothes, the toys, each other... Guessing that is the itching teeth talking! 
This morning I got and idea of what the next 5-6 weeks will bring... they were loud! Very loud playtime this morning, so soon I can say bye bye to sleeping in in the mornings!
Enjoy the pictures below, of the puppies 16 and 17 days old!

These photos are from yesterday, when they puppies were 15 days old. I can't stop looking at them, they are sooo adorable. They are not awake for very long time, still mostly eating or sleeping. But when they are awake they explore the world, which is still pretty small to them.
Today they will get their first taste of solid food, I hope they will enjoy it! Pictures will come later of course!
Until then, enjoy yesterdays photos!

Today the puppies turned 2 weeks old. A big and for them "busy" day. Before lunch I had my weekly photoshoot trying to get some new individual photos of them all. 
Not the easiest since they were all pretty sleepy and rather laid down with their eyes closed than sit up and smile for the camera... 
In the afternoon it was time to weigh them all again and they keep on growing nicely. Not as chubby as last week, but still good steady puppies! 
In a few days they will get to try solid food for the first time. Just waiting to get some nice low on fat meet from my dad who is a hunter. The puppies can't digest fat so it is important to use meat with little fat in the beginning as they develop.
Today they all got dewormed for the first time. It was not popular and they didn't enjoy it all. But now they won't need it for another couple of weeks!
Below are todays individual photos! Enjoy!

The puppies are 13 days old today, which means 2 weeks and new individual photoshoot tomorrow.
They are soooo adorable now. They have started to interract with eachother, they still don't have any teeth, but it looks like they are tasting eachother. They now enjoy being picked up and held closely for some kisses, so of course getting some of that each day!
Today I took the sidebar out of the puppybox which will gice them all a little bit more room, which is good now when they are starting to move around.
They now pee and poo without Moa's help, but they are still to small to be able to walk away to do it... It will make it a lot nicer when they start to do that, easier to keep a clean bed and an open floor surface for them then. But for now the whole puppybox is still covered with blankets.
Below are some photos from yesterday and today aswell as two videos from today. Enjoy!

The puppies are now 11 days old and they all have their eyes more or less open. They are absolutely adorable! Can't stop looking at them, and finally having them looking back!
Moa is doing great, she is such a wonderful mother. So calm and caring, relaxed and loving. She shows her experience from her previous litters, how she moves around them and with them. Just a wonderful mum! 
Below are the photos and one video from today!

The puppies are 10 days old today. They have all started to open their eyes, so adorable! They have started to get around on all four, instead of just dragging themselves around only using their frontlegs. Still very unsteady and falling over a lot, but starting to look a little bit more like tiny dogs than sausages!
I can't wait until they get a little bit bigger so I can start to cuddle with them for real. Until they can see properly I avoid carrying them. It is just stressful for them when they can't keep their balance. So really looking forward to them getting bigger and interact more with them!
Below you can see one video of them from today and also some new photos!
