AARCS - It's been a long time, baby!

It's been a long time since we've had fosters - about 10 weeks. An orphan litter arrived from AARCS from a spay/neuter clinic held at Wabasca Reserve last weekend. The mom is fine and healthy, but the owner didn't want these 6 girls from the litter, and so he surrendered them at 3 1/2 weeks old.

It's always a fun girlie time when we get our bath assembly line going for our really little puppies.

Hannah's favourite is the wash station. If she isn't washing, I am.

Ming was not impressed with getting all wet and then the sudsing was totally humiliating!

She completely relaxed when she was rinsed in the warm water.

After her bath, Morgan was on the drying station and I manned the delousing comb. This litter is completely clean - no lice, fleas or round worm. Very, very nice! Then, the puppies are moved on to inspection and feeding.

Feeding is the puppy's favourite station on bath night.

We couldn't get a good picture of Sui, so the best I could do was after she was through all the stations and was put to bed with Ming. She was the most unimpressed puppy I've ever seen on bath night.

Then came Liao.

And Qing

And Xia

And cheeky Tang ended the night.

These pups were all very happy to sleep since bath night is always so very exhausting for them!!
