Our Bed

My apologies to all of you!
This week has been so hectic I did not get new pictures of the kids posted by tonight like I said I would.
I thought I would click a picture of all of them sleeping but they are quick. Before I can adjust the camera the are at my feet wanting some attention. Here's a quick pic of the not so quick ones. There are 2 large crates in the room but they all like sleeping together.
It's A Slumber Party Every Day!

Tear Stains

Update on tear staining 
Here is what I posted a few years ago and at the time I thought I was giving good advice as the product mentioned did work;
To all of you following the pictures of my Westies I thought I would include some info on tear staining and what causes it. The following link is an advertisement for one of the products my vet suggested www.angelsglow.com Try to ignore the sales hype and click on frequently asked questions the info is good.
I have tried a couple of topical product but find them ineffective. I started using this product today but if it works it takes time. My vet seemed convinced that in my puppies case the cause is stress related suggesting I might have mixed the two litters together a little too soon as I did it just as they were starting to wean and cutting teeth. At any rate the problem should correct itself after they settle in their new homes long enough for new hair to grow in to replaced the stained hair.


Here are my current thoughts;
I no longer support the product mentioned above and all products that contain the antibiotic tylosin. Yes they do work but these products have been outlawed in the UK for several reasons.
I still have found no topical product to be anymore effective than washing faces everyday with warm water ( I use kangen water with a ph of 6), a little tearless shampoo, and drying completely with a little cornstarch to take away the last of the moisture, for internal use a natural product called Tearlax, and finally lots of love and chew toys to keep them calm and happy during weaning and teething as stress can cause an increase in tearing.

Guess what!
I had both ears
up for about 30
seconds yesterday.

By the way I dig
the name Milo.

Lilly 6 weeks

I don't really look like
one of those short
legged wiener dogs.
It's all prospective.

Jonah 6 weeks

I know yesterday I said
I was looking for a
forever home but today
Frankie and I traded
places. So take a look at
him, he's a real cool guy.

Harley 6 weeks

is well with you.

Willie 6 weeks

Every once in a while
I can hold one ear all
the way up for a little
while.

Ema 6 weeks

Very playful
but not rowdy.

Micah 6 weeks

I'm a sensitive guy
Mom doesn't let me nurse
constantly anymore and I
don't handle the stress
well therefore I have more
tear stains than everyone else.
The vet had a few ideas that
we're trying. Hoping something
works soon!

Riley 6 weeks

I have a foot fetish,
I just can't resist a nibble.

Zoi 6 weeks

I like sitting in the
dry food bowl, don't
know why it just
feels good!

Lola 6 weeks

So cute!
Our ears are starting to go up!

Lola 11/13/08

HI EVERYONE THIS MORNING
I GOT THE SEE WHAT OUTSIDE
LOOKED LIKE FOR THE 1ST TIME
WOW! IT'S BIG

m-m-m-m good!

Our human mom took the fence down between the 2 litters so now all of us can be together all the time.



She also put cedar shaving in the back of the room between the crates. She wants us
to learn to go potty there. Lola here has the hang of it but it is very fun to play in!



We now get Diamond Puppy Food softened in nice warm goats milk.
m-m-m-m good

Willie

At birth I was the smallest of the litter but 2 of my brothers past me up. Now Frankie is bigger than me but I'm bigger than Riley ha--ha! On top of that I have been told I have the nicest hair of all, my human mom just loves to hold me----don't tell anyone but I think I am her favorite.

Ogi

My human mom caught Lilly and me eating mom's food yesterday so now we get Diamond puppy food softened in goat's milk.
Oh my goodness it is so-o-o good!
However, now mom doesn't like to clean us up so we all had our 1st sponge bath today.
NOT SO FUN!
I guess there is a price to pay for everything!

Frankie

Last week I weighed less than the other kids, but hey guess what?
I now weigh more than 2 of the other guys, I'm on a roll!
