The Trinity Litter: AKC Poodles 3 Week Update • SoFun Dogs

These little nuggets are heading into my favorite stage of puppyhood, where they are learning to walk more steadily (sort-of, haha!) and experimenting with their voices. They move around the whelping box as if they’re inebriated and *trying* to play with one another — but all movements are in slow motion and it is so funny!

All 3 spots on this reservation are available! A reservation fee made now will secure the “pick of the litter” spot!

Below are updated photos and weights at 3 weeks old. Reminder: genetic codes listed are only necessary knowledge for interested breeders.

CURRICULUM: This week we started our 10-step handling exercises and continued daily weights. I also have started conditioning them to different sounds they may be exposed to — specifically loud, sudden noises. They are currently at the age where they do not yet fear sound, so we are jump starting their desensitization to it. My goal is to slowly and safely condition them to many different scenarios they may encounter as they grow. You can watch a video of the handling exercises from our first litter by clicking HERE. We do this because my relationship with them is their first relationship with a human, and it’s critical I make it a positive one — so gentle and safe is key! Late in the week, if their teeth start erupting, I’ll introduce them to puppy mush (blended and liquified puppy food).
