Closer to Home Litter Seven Week Update

It is hard to believe that these puppies are seven weeks old and will start to go to their forever homes in just one week. They have had a lot of visitors, young and old, and have done very well with all of them. They have had individual explorations outside of their yard and away from their pack. Though, a little nervous at first, all have done very well with that, and even handled meeting the resident chickens and rooster. They have also graduated to regular collars, so some of them are in new colors. More interesting experiences are scheduled for their final week here.
