They all have their eyes open, and got their second toenail clipping today, which was accepted without a struggle.  They are all up and “walking” on all four feet, no more dragging around.  Of considerable distress to Brian and I is the realization they now have real voices, which means besides whining, we also bark, and HOWL.  True Songdogs!  Our days of blissful peace and quiet are over.
