And...today was the pups' first adventure outside onto the deck, and then into our yard. The big dogs all joined in - with several of the adults taking up 'sentry' posts to watch for danger, while others supervised all puppy activity closely.
They had a blast sampling pinecones, leaves, sticks, and anything else they could sniff/stuff into their mouths....ahhhh...let the loose poops begin, just in time for puppy meet & greets.
They proved fearless in a new environment again, and you could almost hear their little neurons firing and new pathways exploding in their brains with all the new sights and smells and sounds.
As usual, the first outing creates little monsters of them - they woke up from a long nap, and immediately demanded to go outside again. So much for the living room keeping them occupied!
And even more pics!

Wet puppy foot print...
Randolph was the first brave soul to venture off the deck into the yard.
Smooch was next.
Such confidence!
Then came Tommi.
Next up - Spinner Dunn.
Buggy wasn't so sure about leaving the deck at first.
He was more content to watch his siblings in the yard...though the fear of missing out would have to kick in eventually.
Still thinking about it...
One foot...
Woohoo! Made it!
Spinner
Johnson on guard to make sure no harm comes to the pups.
