Meal-Time Scramble

You would think that having their eyes open would help the pups locate Ryder more accurately when she is in the box...yes, one would think! Here is how it usually plays out- Ryder will stick her head in the box to check on things. One puppy will see that and go into a crazy frenzy, barking, and spinning in circles. This action wakes everyone else up, who mimic the first. Ryder will then get in the box and it is a scramble in every direction but the correct direction to get to her first. Some puppies are backing up, some are spinning in circles, at least one has it's front feet up on the pig rails braying like a donkey. Finally, one by one, they find her. It sounds like a takes a while, but this all happens in less then a minute. This is what the final product looks like:


Not even time for her to sit or lay down. I will try to get a video of it.

All the pups are growing, growing, growing! They get to come out of the box everyday to explore or just hang out. In a week they will be moved to their puppy yard so they can have more room to play.
