Hard to believe that our Marvel pups are already 6 weeks old. This stage is the hardest work by far but also the most fun. Trying to get anywhere or do anything becomes a marathon with 8 babies hanging off your ankles. Islay is at the stage of pushing the pups away but Flotta remains the most patient and adoring of aunties and will spent ages lying on her back with pups crawling all over her. She’s trying to teach them how to do zoomies around the garden but, so far, and thankfully, given the disastrous muddy state we’re currently in, they have just stood and watched in amazement as she tears around. I’m sure it won’t be long before she has company!
