Daisy Dukes hits the grass!

Weekend out on the town!

The girls came up for a visit today. Ella and Jake stayed home while Kim and I grabbed the puppies and went looking for fabric for the blankets. Kim found a really cute pattern, black and white with puppy paws all over. This was the first time the puppies went out without their mom. Ella did great and didn't seem to upset when we returned. The girls are getting really playful, especially Daisy! She likes to growl and pounce on everything. She kept trying to get Jake to play with her, but he stil isn't sure what to make of these tiny pups! We finally weighed the girls again. Daisy is 3lbs, Kaley is 2. 4 lbs and Sally is 2.2 lbs! They are really growing!

Saturday night we put them in the crate to see how they would do. This is when we realized the puppies eat three times a night still! So we will continue to put them in the crate for longer and longer periods as they continue weaning from Ella.

More play time

Shorkie Girls Playing

Shorkie girls hit the town!

Today was their first trip out, momma Ella was in a Fashion show today. The girls loved riding in the car and we had no problems there. Daisy was the first to want to look out the window as we drove.

The puppies stayed in Kim's purse for the show and everyone kept saying how adorable they are. We of course now this already. We met some other dog lovers at the fashion show and everyone looked so cute! Ella wore a cute pink tank top dress with bling clips in her hair.

After the fashion show we went to our new favorite store IPaw. If you live in Utah this store is a must! They have the cutest designer clothing, fun gear, and treats for your princess. As you can see Kelly Mae has her first t-shirt. We couldn't believe something that small could fit into a shirt already. The girls at Ipaw loved the Shorkies. Kelly and Sally have found homes, but it looks like there are few people that are very interested in Daisy (aka Dusty) The girls have the cutest little bathrobes to wear after their baths now. These will be going to their new homes with them.

The girls were wiped out on the way home, after a quick bite to eat with momma they soon fell asleep. They are doing so well on their potty training, there were no accidents in the car or the purse. They patiently waited until we arrived at my house before they did their business.

We then decided to see if the girls were ready for their model days. We tried many attempts at getting a family portrait, but they were just to busy checking out the new area. My dog Jake wasn't sure what to think of these three. He has never seen any dogs this small before! The girls seemed to love the huge lovesac and were even found a few balls under the couch to play with. Enjoy the pictures! We shot some more video and hopefully this won't be as dark.

Fun pictures

Shorkies 4th Week Update :)

Well two of our little girls have found families and they continue to thrive! They have started gumming the puppy food and the teeth are coming in! They have had their first round of de-worming medicine and are busy exploring their little world. They are playing with each other a lot more. The weaning process is beginning and I don't think Ella could be more excited! It's time to clip the nails again this week and the girls are doing really well with this. Unlike Jake who has to go to Petco and be strapped down because he absolutely hatest this procedure. LOL

Ella is no longer taking care of the potty training, so the girls will be getting some grooming and bathind shortly. The puppies have started eating a rice mixture and Ella is having a hard time letting them eat. We will have to make some for her so the girls can eat. The girls are wrestling, fighting and barking, but learning not to bark in the house. So cute!
