Vet visit and playing

Not too much has been going on....just getting into the swing of feeding, cleaning, letting puppies out, putting papers down, washing towels, rugs and toys, mixing food, giving dewormer, taking puppies to the vet and treating any issues they come up with each day.  Puppies are just like kids in that they get into trouble if possible.  When I am asleep at night they escape into the entire kitchen and string rugs all over and pee on the floor and other catastrophes.  When you call them to come in 3 come in, 2 go back out, and 1 goes in, 4 goes back and its just pandemonium.   But you can't help but just laugh at them because they are so squirmy and silly--everything is just FUN for them even if you have no time to play they always do!  You put clean papers down and they find a way under them and they just delight in tearing them to shreds so you have to do it all over again.  They love playing with a smashed empty plastic water bottle but manage to get it out of reach behind the kennel each time and just bark until you come get it for them.  In the yard they are a blast...running and rolling around each other and the big dogs.  But that's where some issues come up like a splinter in a toe, dirt in someone's eyes, a bitten foot that causes one puppy to limp for 20 minutes because some puppy played too hard.  That's just like kids to me, but then I raised 2 boys so they were just like that, broken toes, scratches, bruises and scrapes....
