So, yes, I think that Creekside puppies are renowned for their "Terrible Twos" Seems all the 2nd born seem just a little bit BAAAAAAD! Except Tap (#2 of 2004 Pat x Glen litter), she was never bad :) And it seems like this #2 is destined to join the ranks...She is doing little barking, bossy growly noises already. And she always seems to want OUT of the puppy room at ever opportunity. Yikes.
Today's (not very flattering) pics and weights at 18 days old:
Puppy #1 (Girl): 2 lbs, 14 oz.
Puppy #2 (Girl): 2 lbs, 11 oz.
Puppy #3 (Boy): 2 lbs, 13.5 oz.
Puppy #4 (Boy): 2 lbs, 15 oz.
Puppy #5 (Boy): 3 lbs, 1 oz.
Puppy #6 (Boy): 2 lbs, 8 oz.
On a sad note, today my 13.5 year old Jess began to have symptoms of vestibular syndrome ("old dog disease"), and by this evening she is vomiting and cannot stand up at all, has very fast REMs and is completely out of sorts, so is safely tucked away in a nice dark crate by my side. It is a very scary thing to watch, but Boomer went through it at about the same age and after a few days it began to clear up and after 3 weeks he was pretty much back to his old normal self.
It's so hard to watch them grow old!

I really hope Jess feels better soon.
Man, as you scroll down, they get increasingly adorable. #1 was a stunner, then #2 looked like a stunner, and...by the time you reach that #6. Man, oh man. He is PERFECT.
-Owner of a previous #2 puppy who at this very moment attempted to trade a toy for a roll of toilet paper.
PS -and owner of a very, very sweet and special classic #6 : )
PPS -whoever is getting this #6, I will e-mail you my address and would be pleased if you promptly shipped him to me upon receipt. Unless he is evil.
Poor Jess :( We send her our love and hope she is much better soon!!
On the #6 note...all the perfect, most handsome boys have been #6's ;) starting with the 2004 litter ;)
