I gave Vando a haircut today.  Take a look at how much I cut off.  2/3 of a 20 gallon waste basket!  His hair was about 3" long.  I had to blow it out to cut it, so not many curls in this sampling.

I used a 3/4" clipper blade on most of his body, 5/8" on front and back profile.  Here is a close up of how fabulous his curl is.  This is how he looks with only 3/4" of hair.  I scissor the legs, tail and head.

I did not show his head as I didn't trim it yet.  I am going to make another short video on clipping his ears and trimming the eyes.

If you haven't already seen it, check my website for a cute family photo taken on day one.  My they change so quickly!  Click on the right sidebar that says "puppies".

Here is a little video I made on Easter Sunday.  I am still a bit video-editing challenged so I just got it finished.  This little guy had just started to get up on his feet and I had my phone handy.  They are so cute.

Today we moved the babies out of the quiet of the extra bedroom and into the center of the house.  We put covers up around the sides of the pen so mom and babies can get used to the noise and other dogs a little bit at a time.

 2 weeks on Easter Sunday!  4 of the babies have "peepers" or eyes either partially or fully opened.  I couldn't use a flash for these photos because of the fragile little eyes.  First photo is blue boy.

  

Green boy.  The stuffed toy is a sort of pink dog with rabbit ears.  I hope the puppies don't get confused identities from this creature.

Yellow boy.  His skin has some darker pigment so I can't tell yet if he will keep any white in his fur.  Some places still appear to have pink skin, but we shall see.

Orange girl is above and purple girl is below.  Orange was the first to open eyes.  Most of the puppies are able to sit now.  They are practicing walking and it is pretty funny.  I will get a video of them when I can catch them at it.

The puppies continue to grow and get stronger.  They are starting to get up on their legs as they scoot around the whelping box.

Many thanks to friend Faith for making and decorating our "photo box" for the pups.  The little birthday cake is about 3" high, so you can get an idea about the size of the puppies.  None have hit the 2 pound mark yet, but I expect by Sunday they will be there, or very close.

Sleeping through the party!  They don't qualify as party animals yet, do they?  1 week birthday for blue, green and yellow boys.  Photos taken Sunday evening.

Happy 1 week birthday girls!  These were taken on Sunday evening.  All the puppies are gaining weight and have doubled their birth size.
