4 Weeks and they have names!  

Lind: "Spring" (male)

This boy is always the first to climb out of the pen.  I think he will make a great performance prospect or pet for an active family.  It will be good if he is given training that gives him a "job"even if it is learning tricks.

_______________________________

Vaxa: "Grow" (female)

This girl has an attitude. She is very intelligent and she is definitely an Alpha girl.  Her family will need to provide firm, loving, consistent guidance.  

_______________________________

Sturta: "Shower" (female)

Sturta is very sweet and active.  She sometimes sits back and watches to see what is happening before she joins in the rough play.

_________________________________________

Blo'm: "Flower" (female)

Blom is the most snuggly of this litter.  She is not afraid to get in there and wrestle too, but she is the most calm puppy of this group.

______________________________________

Dogg: "Dew" (male)

Dogg will be a large boy.  He reminds me so much of his grandpa Laki in looks.  He is also one to sit back and watch a situation before plunging in.
