Parmelee Beagles

3 weeks old

The puppies are 3 weeks old now and it’s been a busy week! Last weekend the eyes were still opening and focusing was just starting. During the week we had puppy ears open and many cute sounds starting to come from the puppies. We also expanded the little ones to their PuppyPen from just the PuppyDen. Happy to say they all go in and out of the Den at will and sometimes they even nap out in the Pen area. Two of the pups have been seen coming out, peeing, and going back in to the Den, but that may just be a fluke at this point. This weekend the teeth started coming in. Poor Shelby! 

All the pups are doing great, growing like mad. Even before their teeth are all the way in, they are eating puppy kibble. Shelby is still their prime source of food but I was feeding a few kibble from my fingers.

This coming week - we start soft food meals for the puppies. They will have kibble available at all times but we will start having breakfast, lunch and dinner this week. We will also be going outside. Only to the back patio to start, by the weekend we should be going down the the grass as well. Next weekend we start potential family puppy visits and will start letting families reserve specific puppies.

Bellanca 35.5 ounces

Curtiss 47.5 ounces
