Developmentally, the pups are just bigger and more playful. Socially, most the pups are all out and about now when we are around. Unless a pup is asleep, they are begging for attention. So, the initial observation of some holding back is now null-and-void!
As for where the pups hang out now - They have moved themselves up to the porch now. I still keep a blanket under the trampoline because they still like playing under there and sometimes still "crash" there. At this point, they explore the entire backyard. All are explorers, but again, sleep time is usually back on the porch. Thankfully, they have learned to respect that area more and I can allow it. The only time they might do their business there now is in the middle of the night.
Special note: I am constantly finding our daughter holding the runt. She will certainly leave here the most socialized of the bunch.
Fun Note! Four picks were made this week.
