My visit and photos are from a few days ago, when they were 6 1/2 weeks old. They have grown a lot since my last visit! They are getting lots of access to the outdoors via a large deck and an even larger penned-in grassy area. They have lots of interactions with people and the adult Chinooks in the pack. It is fun to watch their exuberant play and they increasingly complex interactions with each other.

Ruffian may be the smallest pup, but her name suits her. She could have been named Tuffian, as well, because she will take no guff from any of the other puppies!
