new fun things

This morning, we brought the pups into the house either one or two at a time. They explored the tile floor and wanted to nurse on Hallie. In an effort to keep them from nursing, we put a shirt on Hal and a leash on the babies. This was their first exposure to a leash and we just let them wander. This photo is a good example of how mom-dogs keep their babies in line. Other ways she demonstrates are to put the pups head in her mouth or to growl/snap at them. They get the message really quick.

Here is a quick example of how these guys work together. I put the skateboard in with them about 3 minutes before I shot the video. They immediately ran over to the new thing and started trying to take it apart - bite by little bite.
