The Wonderful World of Puppies
Puppies are adorable, playful, and full of surprises. Let’s explore some fun and interesting facts about these little bundles of joy!
Tiny Beginnings
When puppies are born, they are tiny and completely dependent on their mother. They are born blind, deaf, and toothless. At birth, they can’t see or hear and spend their first two weeks finding their way by smell and touch.
Learning to Walk
Around two to three weeks old, puppies start to open their eyes and ears. This is when they begin to learn to walk. Their first steps might be wobbly, but they quickly become more confident and start exploring the world around them.
Puppy Teeth
Puppies start developing their baby teeth at around three to four weeks old. These sharp little teeth help them learn to chew and play. By the time they are about six months old, they will have their full set of adult teeth.
Playful Nature
Puppies love to play, and playtime is important for their development. Through play, they learn important social skills, how to interact with other dogs and humans, and even how to hunt. Tug-of-war, chasing, and gentle wrestling are all favorite puppy games.
Sleepyheads
Did you know that puppies need a lot of sleep? They can sleep up to 18-20 hours a day! This sleep is crucial for their growth and development. Just like human babies, puppies need plenty of rest to grow big and strong.
