Yes, it’s true. Between Susan, Shannon and I, we came up with dessert names. Cookies and pastries, to be precise! Not only that, but in the one week they’ve been pounding the puppy food, they’ve already grown and developed little personalities, and learned how to play and drink water! I continue to offer them dry kibble and they eat some of it, but mostly, they just play hockey with it. I leave the room and come back and the kibbles are all the way across on the other side of the room…hey! how’d they do that??

So, the one and only boy is named Biscotti (or Scotti for short). He’s a very cuddly puppy, who loves to be held, but also likes to venture away from the girls and explore. He may be the most needy.

The black and white girl is Moon Pie. She’s a playful and sweet little girl, who likes to pounce on her siblings.

The lightest colored gold girl (also the roundest one at this point) is Eclair. She’s wearing the yellow collar. She’s the one who finishes eating first, and heads right off to play by herself. Sometimes she plays in their little den, but lately, she’s been playing with the ball (see video).

The darkest colored gold girl is called Fritter (as in Apple). She’s wearing the teal colored collar. She is by far the most playful. She will play with her siblings and the toys, and well, even just a single little kibble on the floor. sometimes she’ll even pounce on the floor when there’s nothing there. She was the first to learn how to drink water out of a bowl.

The medium colored gold girl is called Macaroon. She’s wearing the black collar. She’s sweet and playful and likes to climb up on the x-pen to make sure you see her first. Smart cookie.

All of these little ones love to be snuggled up in your jacket where it’s nice and warm. We figure without mom, they need a bit of that kind of snuggle loving…

Here’s their video for today. Enjoy!
