O Litter By The Numbers

The O's continue to thrive under the watchful eye of supermom, Omeeka.

I thought it would be interesting to track the pups' aggregate weight gain over the course of the next few weeks. (Ok, maybe it will be interesting or maybe I'm not adjusting to retirement as well as I think . . .) Anyway, here goes:

• On Monday evening (July 20th) the total puppy weight was 9.1 lbs.
• Four days later, Friday morning, the total puppy weight increased by 2 lbs.
• Nine of the pups are now one pound or better, only little brown who weighed 11.5 oz at birth is hovering just below the one pound mark.

As the work associated with caring for the litter increases over the next few weeks, it will be interesting to see how much time I will have for this kind of fun trivia!!
