4 Week Old "B" Litter vom Prairie-Flusstal Outside for 1st Time

Our "B" Litter turned 4 weeks old yesterday and it was a nice spring day so I decided to introduce them to the great outdoors for the first time. They were a little cautious at first, but quickly learned to use their noses and start exploring. You can hear them start crying when their mother Liesel is near. They are at that age where they always think they are hungry for the milkbar. You can see that the pups are starting to learn to come when called. I've been making kissing noises whenever I feed them to condition them to coming when called. 3 puppies recalled pretty nicely in this video.
Big sister Livvy (now 8 months old) has been around the puppies for the past month as they've been stationed in our living room. But I never let her in the whelping box. So yesterday was also the first time that I let Livvy interact with her little brothers and sisters. She was amazing! Appropriately cautious and very gentle with them. And the puppies were equally interested in her. I like introducing young puppies to our other dogs as early as possible to ensure that everyone learns to behavior appropriately around each other.
