Tramac Puppies: 6 to 7 weeks

Well it's always something new!! This litter got ringworm... How?? Who knows, but it happens... They have black or liver spots but now they also have some pink ones too. The have one more week of treatment and the hair is already growing back :)

All are doing well! Tess too! I would not wish it on anyone and grateful there are only 4 puppies, but they will be fine and will grow back hair in time. Better than many, many other thing that can befall puppies in their early weeks...

The puppies got their baths and were hearing tested on Saturday, 3 are bilateral - hear in both ears and Ringo is unilateral - hears in one ear. Just what I thought it would be. Ringo's new family came to visit Saturday and as both are Vet Techs they held the puppies for their test. Thanks for your help!!

While I was gone Mom & Dad kinda renamed the puppies... John (Lt Blue) is now Face, Mom just loves his face!! Paul (Drk Blue) is now Stripe and you will see why in his photos :) George (Lt Green) our brown boy is now Buster and Ringo (Drk Green) stayed Ringo the only name they liked :).

Enjoy!! And for those who want to see stacked photos... I will do my best to get Dad up here to take some!

Clockwise; Buster, Face, Stripe and Ringo

Buster

Face

Ringo

Stripe

Now you see why his name has become Stripe!

Tess had a shirt on so they would not nurse. No problem now! They all play together w/o the shirt :)

Buster

I put up a mirror and some puppies take a bit to figure it out... Face has no problem with it and "plays" with it!
Buster is not too sure who is in the mirror...
