Furry Potatoes update
Posted By Christina Towler,
02/11/2023 Puglet update. Sylvia and Amadeus' puppies are now 4 weeks + 2 days old. They are hungry chunky little bears and thriving. They are eating solids, but their favourite dish is still their mama's milk. Their teeth have started to come through and they are practising growling and barks and it sounds adorable. How on earth am going to be able to part with them #pugsofinstagram #puglife #pug #puglove #pugpuppy

She’s not into walking now, which is fair enough since it is starting to get warmer, so we do PT sessions in the pool to her absolute disgust. She will only swim the bare minimum, but it is important that she is fit for birthing, so we must push her. After having searched heaven and earth...
