Week 4

This has been a week of firsts for Nick. We had our first guests over for a puppy visit, Nick had his first real meal, and Nick had his first real marrow bone. Nick is topping out the scales at 6#10oz. I decided to spare his poor mom from feeding him by putting him on regular food a little early. Usually I wait until they are between 4 and 5 weeks old to switch to real food but Nick is so large, I gave him a couple days of goat's milk and today he received a meal of softened, mashed kibble and goat's milk. Usually it is a great day of pictures when puppy eats his first meal but Nick put his head in the bowl and ate like he has been doing it for weeks. No fun pictures. He is very playful and is all over the other dogs, wrestling and pouncing. He loves to chew on bones and toys and is even chasing balls. He is a very fun pup and the whole pack is really enjoying him.
