Got a little progress report. I have a litter of 5 puppies, they were 10 weeks old yesterday. Today is the 5th time they have been on their walk. They remembered the hog pen and bolted to the fence and bayed their guts out. I let them bay a few minutes, called them off, then headed to the woods. As I was crossing the fence, they all scattered out ahead of me, noses to the ground. Not far, and they kept checking back in with a "visual" and leaving back out. I let them cruze the woods for 15 minutes, called them in, and headed back to the house. As soon as we stepped out of the woods, the pups bolted to the hog pen again 80 yards across the pasture and started baying again. Called them off and headed to the stock pond--they took their first swim. Beings catahoulas, they fell in love with the water. I'm watching these guys develope like camera film. Proud of them as 10 week old pups.
