Puppies' first teeth and first 'woobies'!

[From Pearl's 'humans']

The puppies are currently growing their first teeth which they have started testing out on their siblings. Especially after meals, the pups prance around the puppy pool and then, with excited growls, pounce on each other.

In order to give the pups something else to chew on at playtime, we recently brought out the 'woobies' (favorite toys- usually stuffed). The puppy toychest produced some tiny stuffed bears, a rubber dinosaur, a couple balls and a pair of so-called 'loofah' pets which have become the woobies of choice. [At left, Avila plays with the bear.]

The puppies like to bring their new woobies to dinner and bath-time.

And, at bedtime, everyone wants to hang out with the woobies. [At left, Avila naps with the 'loofah puppy' woobie.]

Admittedly, some puppies are 'woobie-hogs'.

However, at night, the puppies share the woobies in the family 'puppy pile'.
