Yesterday was a big day for the babies.
At just 3 days old, they began Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and had their tails docked. Today they start Early Scent Introduction (ESI) and get their dewclaws removed.
Tiny moments now… but the beginning of building stable, capable, resilient dogs later.
Time is already flying, and this litter is becoming a tight-knit little pack. They sleep together, move together, settle together, and are already showing the first signs of individuality and connection.
Everyone is healthy, thriving, and progressing exactly how we hoped. Rhea continues to impress us with her calm, natural maternal instincts and the way she cares for her pups.
The foundation is already being built.
