1. all poop was out of the pen from overnight
2. they had eaten
3. the puppies were enjoying their turkey broth (free of salt or additives) popsicles

By 7:45AM, pooped had been cleaned up three (3) times! I had 8 samples of poop instead of 5 to take to the doc to run a test. All 9 doggy dishes are in the dishwasher and now I just need to get in the shower and go to the vet's office. Since it is Wednesday, he is only in for 1/2 day!
Vet called to say the test results came out negative for any type of worms! I don't think anyone has ever had any worms with my puppies - not a surprise! It does seem the heartworm preventative Belles was on about a year or two ago as a puppy killed every worm. They have since taken it off the market. The heart worm preventatives now don't cover preventing as many worms. Therefore, they have to be tested for certain varities of worms from time to time.
Debra and I ran them around the kitchen island last night! I would post the video, but our video photographer didn't keep the camera on the puppies all the time. I might be able to be edited later!

Yesterday, we decided to tackle our potty pad while Mom was out. We had tiny bits of cotton flying everywhere! When Mom returned home, it was a huge mess and she removed all potty pads! No fun! Now, we are working on grabbing the potty pads underneath our papers and carpet from the outside. We are able to get our paws outside the fence and pull the pads toward us. Then, Mom goes and weights everything down. She is threatening to bring in bricks to put around the pens to hold everything down! Sometimes, we just pull up the carpet and try to destroy the pads. So, she put paper on top of them, then the carpet. She says, it is all about layering! Well, we will come up with other ways to have fun. We will not be defeated by a human because we know we are much smarter than a human!
