Shorkie Puppies - 8weeks!

The puppies turned 8 weeks old yesterday and got their shots done. They are doing great with car rides now, although Bentley still tries to be held during the car ride. Everyone at the Pet center fell in love with the puppies, and they did really great. The vet said the shots would make them really tired, which was good because the slept all the way home.

I'm trying to get them over cat napping through the night. Tuesday night they woke me up at 1:30 and again at 4:45. So yesterday we played and played and played! My friend from work Melinda brought her super cute little boy Shiloh (not sure how to spell his name) over see the puppies. They loved him and were instantly climbing all over him to give him lots of licks and kisses. Last night I played with them until 11PM then gave them some thick gruel and waited for them to fall asleep about 30 minutes later. They didn't wake me up until 7AM this morning!! Woo hooooo!

I have a bunch of random pictures of the pups from yesterday. The toy basket is their new favorite toy. They love to sleep in it, chew on it, turn each other upside down in it. The Princess bed is where they like to hide all their toys and any socks they have found of mine.

Tori gets a bath

This morning after I gave the pups their breakfast (a watered down type of gruel) Lenny decided to chase Tori... right through the plate of food. She was covered! So it was off the the bath to clean her up. She did really good and we had to blow dry her to keep her warm afterwards. She didn't like that so much. But she is all clean and smelly great! These are some pics of Tori wearing Daisy's old bath robe. Its hard to remember Daisy being that young!

The puppies are super playful now. They run and jump and wrestle and tease and play and then they crash! Right now they are patient enough to wait until 7am before they start whining for my presence. I guess they figure if the sun is up... everyone else should be too!

Shorkie Puppies Playing around

The puppies love to play with each other, as well as try to chase Daisy down for a meal. It is so much fun to watch all five of them try to keep up with her and nurse at the same time.

Couch Potatoe Shorkies!

Bentley loves to be on the couch. He will beg and plead and jump to try to get onto the couch. Once he's on the couch he will lick and play and then curl up and take a nap. The others love to get up on the couch and sleep, but Bentley is obsessed with it! So dang cute!

Random Pics of Cuteness

Here are just some random pics, I always keep my camera close. Daisy is really weaning the puppies these days. They have a lot of teeth, and chewing on my toes is no longer cute! LOL

Tori.. AKA Claire

Our little princess has a new name, from here on she will be known as Tori. Hope this doesn't confuse anyone. Luckily Bentley seems to be the only one that recognizes his name when I call, so tonight I'll start working on the name change. Bentley and Tori have decided they like to curl up on the couch with me. So last night we all took a nap, Duke even joined us for a little bit. Ace and Lenny still like to sleep in their bed. I think Lenny is still just scared to venture out to far due to his recent adventure.
