Ella's pups are three weeks old today 🥹 Last night they tried their first puppy mush, as they have been trying to steal their mothers food but offcourse have no teeth to chew it. 🤣

Weaning is always a messy ordeal. We have added two metal weaning bowls to the Amazon wishlist and would be super duper grateful if anyone was able to send them for the pups as they definitely need bowls with more room. 🙏
