Bistol's Playtime at 4 Weeks

These videos were taken around the time Bristol was 4 weeks old. They were taken after we moved her into a larger play space in our living room and let her have more time with our whole pack. Hemi was quite happy to have more time to visit with Bristol and has been a great...."chew toy" as Bristol gets her new puppy teeth! She's been a great "aunt"!

4 Weeks Old!!

Bristol is getting cuter every day! and Heavier every day! She's gained nearly 2 pounds this week and weighs 6 lbs 10 oz!

Once she was used to eating out of the bowl, we started grinding up puppy kibble and mixing it with the bottle formula. She mows it down really well and it tends to keep her full a little longer so we are down to feeding 4 times a day.

Visit from the Big Dogs!

Bristol had a visit from both Piston and Hemi today!

Piston preferred to keep his distance and sniff Bristol whenever she wasn't looking. He's always a little unsure about the puppies...very curious but would rather keep his distance.

Hemi however has been waiting for the last few weeks to meet Bristol! She hopped right into the whelp box and laid down to offer up her belly.

Hope kept a watchful eye on Bristol's visitors, but she was very accepting of them both. Hope and Hemi have been great playmates and friends since Hope joined us.

Bristol's First Mash Up!

Today was Bristol's first attempt at puppy mash!

Which basically consists of the same formula we've been feeding her with a little ground beef mixed in. Biggest change was it was in a dish! She did quite well all things considered.

She ate herself into a little food coma and slept it off while Hope cleaned off her face.

Bottle Time Swimming

Since Bristol has opened up her eyes she's been far more active...even while drinking!

It has been a busy week for Bristol! She's started opening her eyes and her ears have opened up. Things are only going to get busy from here!

Bristol now weighs a stout 4 lbs 12 oz!

Bristol's Panda Paws

I think her little black and white panda paws are just the cutest!

Soooo stuffed!

Her eyes may be just opening, but they are still "bigger than her belly"!

Our chunk-a-monk has developed quite the appetite and has continued to grow at an impressive rate.

I'm sure if she could speak English she'd be telling us off for posting such unflattering photos! ;)

"Do I have a little something on my chin?"

Who ate to much? Bristol says... "meeee!"

2 Weeks Old!

Wow! We can hardly believe it has already been 2 whole weeks!

It looks like Bristol is getting really close to opening her eyes. We wouldn't be surprised if they open in the next couple of days.

If you hadn't noticed, Bristol has done a LOT of growing this past week. She has gained 716 grams (1 lb 9 oz)! She is up to 3 pounds 7.7 ounces! She has outgrown the basket we were weighing her in and have upgraded to a small box. It doesn't look like it will last for very long either!

Hope Says... "Really??"

What a CHUNK!!

It is safe to say that Bristol is still doing very well on Leerburg's Bottle Feeding Recipe!

Not only is she gaining weight, she's a surprisingly active girl. We've noticed her already standing on all four wobbly legs. It will be no time before she's no longer crawling her way around the whelping box!

Changing Every Day

Every day Bristol is growing and every day we see her features starting to develop. She's got a cute little puppy button nose, you can see her eye shape starting to form and her ears are starting to open. It is amazing to notice something new every day.
