Last weekend we started offering Blottie's pups food, which is puppy kibble soaked in puppy milk, which makes a very edible porridge for them. We have started a bit earlier with food with Blottie's pups due to how many there is. I now have them up to four feeds a day and will slowly make the food less wet. They also are able to lap water from a water bowl. They now have teeth erupting and are very aware of noise and they respond to your voice. Very cute when they wag their tail when they hear your voice. We are now in what I call the "dirty phase." When they first start to eat, they can spend more time tramping around the food then eating it and once on solids, Mum starts to not be so keen to clean up after them.

What gorgeous photos! It’s lovely to see them grow and develop their own little personalities. I can’t imagine what it’s like to wean 11 puppies in the messy stage! You’re doing a fantastic job. I look forward to your updates.
