Puppies!

We are having so much fun puppysitting this weekend. The Norwegian Elkhound pups are so cute. Granted we've had our share of piddles and poop to pick up, but all in all its been a great time.

They have so much energy. Well, until they crash and sleep for awhile. Then they are right back at it! We set up an X-Pen in the Great Room so they have a place where they can sleep safely, but also be near us. Mackenna has been sleeping downstairs with them. We've worked our schedule so they've yet to be alone since arriving!

The cats have retreated upstairs. They want nothing to do with the puppies. Spirit sits up at the banister meowing. She wants me with her, but that's just not happening right now. She'll get me tonight while we sleep! Yoda is happy under the bed. Rocket is fine hanging out on the window sill by our bathtub. I'm sure we'll see all in their normal places once the puppies leave.

Chaos had her issues on Friday night, but Saturday she was a new dog. She got in trouble for growling and baring her teeth. We were very careful with the three of them, but one of the puppies got really scared and cried. The sad sound just broke our hearts. Chaos figured out fast if she did anything like that she wouldn't be with any of us! Needless to say, we've had no trouble with her and the pups since. It's cute to watch them all together.

I have to admit it's going to be hard to say goodbye to them later today. Pink puppy will be meeting her potential family next weekend. But orange puppy's family can't pick her up for a few more weeks so maybe we'll get another chance to spend some time with her. Here are some more pics of them.
