So sweet!

I have decided it is almost impossible to photograph jet-black poodle puppies. When their eyes are closed while they are sleeping and even when they open them they are so black you can't make out what is what. I need a bigger zoom lens or something. They are now all over a kilogram in weight and growing fast. They are all walking, or toddling/waddling I should say. This weekend they will have their first solid food-just like babies! It's been such a wonderful experience watching them grow. The only problem we've had is old Pippi, our fox terrier who loves them dearly is not allowed by Polly to go anywhere near them. They have had awful spats and we feel so sorry for Pippi as she just wants a lick or two. The mother instinct is so strong however, and even though Polly and Pippi are usually the best of friends this is a whole new ball game. Just as well the puppies are in a playpen so we can keep them contained. Now all I need is a puppy pram so I can talk them for a walk! Has anyone heard of such a thing?
Have a great week.
