Week Six (Days 36-42)

DEVELOPMENT OF THE PUPPIES

Growth and development continue

Puppy Toddlers (3 - 6 Weeks) During the Toddler period, puppies emerge on their own from the litter. They venture into the surrounding environment. This emergence from the litter is a gradual and continual learning experience. During this stage of development puppies learn basic behavioral patterns specific to dogs. While playing, they practice different body postures, learning what the postures mean and how they affect their mother and litter mates. They learn what it is like to bite and be bitten, what barking and other vocalizations mean and how to make and use them to establish social relationships with other dogs. Such learning and activity tempers their own biting and vocalizing. From the age of five weeks, the mother teaches her puppies basic manners.

We continue to take them outside when they wake up for feeding. All know "come" when called. Go down and up basic set of stairs. The pups are given lots of TLC by humans. All call for us to pet them. Paper trained.
