Boxer Puppies: Week 4: That's my food!

This week starts their 4th week in this world. What an exciting week we had last week! We introduced our sweethearts to canned puppy food- Yum!

The name: Nutro Ultra Holistic Puppy Food

Benefits:

Healthy Skin and Coat: Contains a combination of superfoods like avocado, sunflower and flaxseed that are rich in essential fatty acids for a healthy skin and a shiny, soft coat — one of the best indicators of your dog's vitality

Lean Muscle Mass: Three animal proteins from chicken, lamb and salmon provide essential Amino Acids that help promote lean muscle mass

Strong Immune System: Antioxidant-rich superfoods like blueberries, pomegranate, tomatoes and cranberries help build and maintain a healthy immune system so your puppy will have the best protection possible

Cognitive Development: Nutrient-rich whole foods such as salmon and egg are rich in DHA, which has been shown to promote cognitive development and healthy brain function so your puppy can learn to sit, stay and play

Strong Teeth and Bones: Contains optimal calcium levels to help growing puppies build strong teeth and bones

It was so fun watching them eat this for the first time. They were SO excited. We started out with three bowls... two days later went to four bowls and today I decided to add a fifth bowl because they're arguing over food now! I even added almost a whole other can of food. They growl, they push, they bark and howl. They look forward to their Ultra puppy food for breakfast and dinner. In between, they still drink milk from their mom. Their belly's are round and full and I can tell that each one has gained weight from it.

Here are a few pictures of their first time eating the food!

Now the fun part... how does your baby look? They're growing so fast and some that started off smaller are now getting larger. Their characteristics are coming out and they're starting to wrestle with one another. We take them outside to potty and we have puppy pads. In no way are they potty trained, but we're hoping a few of them will figure out the pattern. If you have picked out a name for your puppy and you would like us to start calling him or her by it, please let us know!

Below are the new pictures I took last night. Most of them barely fit in the sleigh! Each puppy will have at least two pictures below. Now that they are getting older, it's fun to be more creative. I can't wait to see what I think of next week! ; )
