Week 4. They have grown alot this week! Looks like they are all extremely healthy, no fleas whatsoever, insects aren't a problem at all. Teeth are coming in, momma will be kicking them off the teats pretty soon. They are beautiful.

Lot'so pictures...

 

Nice lookin' puppies!

Glad to hear they are all doing good.

Are you keeping all of them or what?

 

Hey Rip glad to hear they are all doin well, gettin big quick, pretty soon you won't know which one to chase or which one is chewin on the fence...

 

nice lookin pups man!

 

No they will be selling. I'm gonna post on week 6 and try to get them sold after about week 7 or 8. That's when I'll be comfortable. Gonna get them to the vet beforehand. I'd like to keep them, they are all so loving and full of life, but ain't no way. Thanks for keeping up with this.

 

thanks for posting the pics! no matter how bad your day is going, looking at puppies sure has a way to make you feel better!

 

Those are some good looking dogs! Past few months I've been wanting to get my own as I miss not having my goldens around, and it seems like every week I'm considering a new breed! English bulldog, boxer, husky, pit, etc...

I'm about decided on a Boxer (size, personality, and style of hair I want mainly), but these photos got me thinking!

 

Thanks ya'll, they sure lighten my day everyday!!! Its awesome to see them all perk their ears and come barreling at you like you're the most important person in the world!!! They all have certain personalities, every one of them has something that makes them unique to me. They are doing great, mommas getting sore, their teeth are like razorblades! Went and got some wet food for them starting tomorrow, and teaching them what water is, before i would just use a syringe and manually give them water, now they're getting the point.

xtoyz, my girls best friend has 2 boxers, a brown and white and a black and white. They are great dogs, very agile. Personally I would've had them instead of pits but I don't like boxers tendencies and their body language, aka twisting their back bones so much!!!


I will have week 5 pics up after Saturday sometime. Kinda bracing for Ike, though we probably won't see over 50-60mph. Who knows what will happen.

 

Alright guys, week 5, again alot of development this week, they are on a mix of Nutro Max chicken lamb and rice wet and Iams Pro-Active puppy food, no pot bellies when they fill up, but they eat like vacuum cleaners, they know what water is and lap it up when they need it. They are hard biters, and all are very associative, they all run up to see me. Enjoy....

 

Notice the runt in the middle of pic 3. She is awesome, has a very mellow personality but she holds her own with the big'ns.

 

She looks good...

I don't miss those razors for claws and teeth though!

 

Yeah now I have to make sure I'm fully clothed to go out to them, if not they attack my legs and feet instead of pants and boots. Those teeth are like thorns!

 

Man there gettin big quick.... Can I make a suggestion, stop feeding them striods. They look good and healthy Rip your doin a great job with them.

 

Thanks man!!! They are getting there quick! Momma is doing a great job, I never hear a squeal of pain from them at all, and they are always fat. I just make sure they have clean water, good food, no insects, light at night and a nice cool breeze thanks to a farm and ranch fan. I also make sure to put down plenty of bedding, scented redwood chips do really well and helps the pups stay smelling fresh til they get their 1st baths. Its been alot easier than I thought, I really believe the hardest part has yet to come, parting with them.

 

Gorgeous looking dogs, and that Runt has got the cutest face of any pit I've ever seen. The dogs are really filling out though! Just showed the better half the photos and even she said they'd be a **** good second choice rather than a boxer.

Only downside is the 7 or 8 pitbull attacks we've had in the past 3-4 weeks, they're really getting a bad rap around here.
