The eyes of the young Broholmers were still closed and the puppies only crawled through the puppy box, mostly close to their mother. There are only two functions at that age: Sucking and sleeping. The post picture shows a young female. Rosa (they don’t have names yet and are referred to by their collars) was the last of the litter to be born with 7 puppies and is therefore also the lightest.
The little male (here Grey in the picture) prefers to be close to his mother and sleeps cuddled up directly to her leg:
The other puppies lie head to head, usually one of the puppies is used as a pillow.
The largest of the puppies — Blue, the first-born — is lying on his back and stretching out his still quite small paw towards us. The skin of the pads is still very soft.

Lieber Marc,
es ist ein entzückender Bildband mit so liebevoller Beschreibung entstanden. Ich fühle mich geehrt, dass unsere Welpies einen Platz in deinem Blog gefunden haben.
