Photo Diary of Asti's pups week 5

	7 February 2003 (Day 29) We had our second puppy worming today.  I worm them at least every two weeks starting from two weeks of age.  It is a very messy affair as the chocolate flavoured syrup ends up everywhere including all over me and the pups.  I hate giving it to them because they clearly don't like the taste and splutter away.
	8 February 2003 (Day 30) The pups are becoming much more active at play times.  Ears are on there way up.  I wanted to get a photo of the red & white girl as she has one ear up and looks quite funny with the other still down but she was camera shy and moved out of view.
	9 February 2003 (Day 31) Today Asti has began regurgitating her food for the pups.  Although this may sound horrible it's how a mother naturally weans her pups in the wild.  It's fresh food she has just eaten and the pups gobble away then Asti tidies up any leftovers.  I'd already began gradually weaning the pups since they were 3 weeks old but Asti obviously feels 4 weeks is the appropriate time.
	10 February 2003 (Day 32) As you'll see from the photo above the pups have been showing a lot of interest in the great outdoors looking through the patio doors even at night.  So when it was cool and overcast they went walkabouts.
	11 February 2003 (Day 33) Trotting for the first time on grass towards a pair of feet which are out of view.
