Elaine has bounced back from her delivery. She went on our daily run today and ran like the athletic Elaine she was before she became the mommy-blimp Elaine. I have her on a supplement called Puppy Gold, which I will also give the puppies when they are weaning. We are getting phenomenal daily weight gains, partly because the litter is not overly large for mom's milk production to handle and maybe in part because of this supplement.
Here are the weight gains so far.
| wt at birth (oz) | wt at 5 days (oz) | |
| green boy | 13 | 19.4 |
| yellow boy | 12 | 17.7 |
| blue boy | 12 | 19.9 |
| Little Elaine | 11 | 16.4 |
| pink girl | 9 | 15.2 |
They are much quieter at night now, and they are getting so big that Elaine notices when she lies on one and gets off before doing any harm. Blue boy wagged his tail yesterday.
