Day 14 - As you can see, their spotting is starting to develop although it is still indistinct.  It will become more definite as they grow.   Some puppies have a little heavier coat and their spotting is even more muted right now.  Their eyes are also starting to open and should be completely open in the next several days.

These were supposed to be their 1 week old pictures but they were not cooperating last night.  Nose trim is coming in although eye trim is hard to identify on some of the pups just yet.

Day 6 - the puppies are just being very cute and moving around the whelping box although here they are all asleep.   Cadbury likes to air his tummy.

Puppies are growing by leaps and bounds.   I have been having trouble coming up with a theme for puppy names and since this is an all brown litter think have finally decided to use chocolatiers.   So for all of you chocoholics:

Yellow Girl = Godiva
Blue Girl = Lindt
Red Girl = Ghirardelli or Delli for short
Pink Girl = Perugina or Gina for short
Patch Girl = Noka (most famous for their dark chocolate)
Green Boy = Cadbury

The old camera just wasn't giving me the pictures that I was looking for so here are the puppies with the new camera.

Mystic is finally settling down with the babies although she seems to think that she has to be with them 24 x 7.  Here's a shot of her deciding that she was going to stay with them while the whelping box was being cleaned this morning.  This is a 200 size crate.

Some head shots of the babies from yesterday:
