Chaos vom Eisenherz - Page 2

Cylas is the same, maybe a pound bigger. Cierny was the biggest; glad to see the boys are catching up. I think pics are deceptive. 

Cierny was 12lbs at under five weeks. I thought she was some sort of freak. I was scared to buy her a crate for shipping for fear she'd have outgrown it by the time she was 8 weeks. Chaos was only 1/2lb behind and Cylas and Corrado were about a pound and a half behind. These pups were the biggest she'd ever had, though not at birth, just in the following weeks. 

I give people a hard time for fat puppies, but these puppies were not even fed by me until they were almost 5 weeks old. I offered, of course, but Capri kept them well fed. I really didn't make them fat.  I was so embarrassed to tell Haley that Cierny was almost 18lbs when she shipped. Holy cow. 

hahah!  She slowed down after she got here.  She's a food hog, but she didn't gain more than a pound, MAYBE 2, a week, until the last 2 weeks.  Growth spurts.....

Not fat by any means, but she's so dang broad across the back she's like a damn foot-stool. xD LOL. Ironically, her first vet visit, they said she was "kind of thin". At that point I might have thought we needed a new vet. :P

Adorable puppy!  I love the close up of his face! 

Awwwwww.... he looks like a little bear! :)

Whoa, Lukas...when was the first vet visit? Right after Haley got her or did she wait? Kind of THIN? An EIGHTEEN pound 8 week old puppy? Um, yeah...new vet. lol    My pet peeve is fat puppies. Cylas looks chunky in his pics, but he's just wide. Ribs are easily felt, as are pelvic bones. I was thinking Cierny looked just right from the recent pics...on the thin side of normal. 

A lot of Capri's pups are broad like that. Chests can be wide, but especially hips. One previous puppy owner tells her dog that she has a "butt like a rap singer's girlfriend" or says that if she tells her to "haul ass" she'll have to make two trips. LOL  

I like that broad stance, personally. 

Chaos was really similar. They were so similar if I wasn't looking at their faces, I would mix them up. Remember, I had to put hemorrhoid cream on Cierny for like 2 weeks...oh what fun that was, going out into the puppy yard/pen and trying to quickly grab the one I needed without the others attacking me. I grabbed the wrong fuzzy butt a time or two. 

Hallix, as of yesterday he is slightly over 35 lbs. He had a bath the day before, after perfuming himself with stink du jour and I could see him without all the fluff. I was a bit worried that he is on the overweight side, especially when he sits, his butt looks huge. Wet, he looks fine. He has a really broad chest and is very lean/muscular. I think they all will look spectacular as adults. His tail still looks like a rat's tail, but I do see it getting longer and fluffier. And he already has 4 new teeth...I know, I know...that is what happens when you have one dog only ;)

Well, if they're all within a pound, we can't all be wrong, right? So they must be fine, growing exactly as genetics dictates. 

Chaos has a rat tail? Really? Or does it just look that way compared to his big wide fluffy butt? Capri has a super thick tail, and I don't just mean the fur. I don't remember much about Chico's tail, honestly. Bravo has a lovely tail though. I would expect Chaos to follow suit. If not, send him back and trade me for Cylas, since you've confessed that he doesn't bark in your face. You're missing out. 

Almost missed this thread...wouldn't want to left out of this family reunion. Corrado is just making a fashion statement by sporting a tight bi-color coat.Funny thing is, we were prepared for a long coat and we got the shortest coat in the litter. Doesn't matter either way, we're just as happy with him as we are Aurick .

Thanx to Jen and Sina for producing "keepers"!

Cute little fuzzy, but with an intense look....so watch out!
