Puppies from left to right:  Blue girl, Clear boy, Green girl (no, she isn’t being strangled–just not cooperating), Purple boy, Red boy.  The pups have really grown–somehow week 6 pictures never got taken–there was probably to much going on and no time for pictures.  At the end of week 7 the pups are continuing to “cut” teeth (that’s the reason for some staining beneath their eyes) and growing a lot of hair.   A favorite activity is to run in the dog room or if the weather is nice to get outside and run in the grass–this week the pups found the “weak” spot in the fence and 3 of them were able to crawl under the gate and make a break for the big world–only to be caught–the gates have since been “puppy proofed!”

Rita and David sent pictures of Lacey on her summer adventures.  In the left picture Lacey appears to be enjoying her ride in a kayak and at right she is doing some sailing (and she doesn’t seem to mind the life jacket).  Rita reports that Lacey like the boating activities and swimming–but really doesn’t like to walk (at home or out camping on the leash).  Sue and I wonder if Lacey just wants to be carried–there are other Bichons in Lacey’s line that like the good life of being carried.  Thank you for the pictures Rita–nice to see Lacey and some of the activities you have her doing.
