Ruby’s puppies are eating soft food now, and this morning little Pink fell asleep in the bowl! Red collar boy was still hungry, and ate around her. ![]()

Cleaning Doberman Puppies
Cleaning kennels with lot’s of puppies excited to see you can be difficult. Whenever I crouch down to scrub a spot I am swarmed by puppy love. All wanting to play, and grab anything they can. And even when I am standing they still go for my feet and ankles. It’s lots of fun.

Soraya Betelges
Sorya loves attention. If I sit on the floor with her in the kennel, and am not paying direct attention to her, she’ll sneakily wriggle on her side across the floor, closer and closer to me. Soon enough she’s practically in my lap, looking up at me expectantly. She’s so cuddly

Lola L-O-L-A Lola….
Lola is a funny dog. She rather stay inside on her nice warm blanket than go play outside. I think she is one of the only dogs that won’t willingly go running outside during potty breaks. She knows that it is cold outside, and would prefer not to go out and play with her buddies if it means she has to freeze to do it.

Griss and Priss
Griss, and Priss. I always get their names mixed up. Their a funny pair. Both of them are usually together, causing the same mischief. When we had them in separate groups, they’d always pause by the door, waiting for me to let out the other. Both of them are so energetic, it’s good they have each other to tire each other out. Except it seems like they never run out of energy, always bounding, and playing around. Such teenagers.

Doberman Vibrato
DD is such a funny dog. Normally in the mornings the dogs will bark and get all excited right before breakfast, but after they eat they go to sleep. She on the other hand is the opposite. She is quiet all night and morning, until after you feed her. Then she starts making this vibrato barking sound. I guess that after breakfast she feels it’s time to say “good morning.” She’s so goofy.

Little Red
Ruby’s red collar boy is so feisty. I think it’s great that even though his siblings are almost twice his size, he’s always biting them, and fighting them. And when I try to help him nurse he always thrashes around and growls angrily at me. It’s adorable. He’s a tough little guy, doesn’t want anyone messing with him.

Doberman puppy breakfast
Feeding puppies breakfast is always fun to watch. First they chirp and chirp, knowing food is coming. Then once they get the food they don’t know what to make of it, sniffing around the bowl. But once they realize what it is they all dive in, squishing as many puppies as they possibly can into the bowl. By the time they are finished they are all completely covered in puppy food, and all their belly’s are fat and round. It’s funny to see them all fat and messy, hobbling around to go nurse once they are done with the first course.
Breakfast for Dobies
During feeding time, the dogs are always excited to have their breakfast. Some are more excited than others. Penny gets so excited that she eats her breakfast as fast as possible, then will reach through the kennel bars and knock down her neighbors food bowls so that it spills on the floor where she can eat it up. I’m surprised more dogs haven’t learned this trick. Now I have to remember to be sure that I put the food bowls of anyone next to Penny’s kennel out of reach.

Weaning Doberman Puppies
You can always tell when the puppies are getting to that age when they are about to be weened. It’s when you are feeding mom breakfast, and she has to fend off all the intruders fighting to get into her bowl. Celeste’s babies are coming to that age, and she has a lot of them she’s got to ward off. It’s kind of funny to watch.
