2013, Day 54 - Itchy

I had quite a treat today, time with puppies!  They are four weeks old to the day and are just now entering their adventurous phase.  The world is ripe for exploration and while it is all good fun it doesn't take long before they are ready for a meal and the comfort of a cuddly nap with their siblings.  I think Mom is ready for them to start eating solid foods as they are a little abusive in their nursing and I expect it won't be long before the transition is started by right now they still mob her at meal times.  Fortunately her only son is happy to show his appreciating by grooming Mom's head after he has had his fill.
