Description:
The 4 musketeers puppies: Aramis Athos D Artagnan and Porthos. On Feb. 17th SASA contacted us to rescue these 4 bottle babies that were found dumped in a box on the side of a road. They were just a few days old and would have died. Huge thanks to our Hero Bottle Baby foster home. She took them in and they thrived. All super adorable. Their eyes opened at about 3 weeks old. They are still bottle feeding (raw goat's milk and puppy replacement milk) and went to their 2nd bottle puppy foster home on 3/9/24. Soon they will be licking slurry mix. More info. to come as they keep growing. They look to be huskies and will be available when 8 weeks old on April 13th and get their vet care (exam vaccinations deworm microchip). Video: https://www.facebook.com/reel/2044996872540433 3/10/24: They 3 1/2 weeks old and are in their hero bottle puppy foster home until they start eating solids at about 6-7 weeks. 3/31/24: They went to our vet for their first exams vaccinations and microchip. Pairs are now relaxing and learning at two foster homes for puppy training. Ready after 8 weeks old. We are learning more about their personality as they grow. Please read and research the adult Husky breed and their exercise needs. As large adults they will need more exercise. Will be great hiking buddies. Most want be around someone or have another dog at home as pack. 4/7/24: 7 weeks old. They have been doing great at pottying outside or on the pee pad - I think we have only had 2 accidents? Also they are sleeping perfectly through the night I only get up once in the middle of the night to let them go potty. Athos is a little chiller and more affectionate with people. Porthos is more playful loves toys and a bit more independent. They have been so sweet and so easy compared to our last foster... Pups personality so far: Athos is the first one to settle down to nap; Porthos is higher energy and will wake up first and wake Athos up. Athos is slightly more vocal but they are both vocal :) Porthos is more mischievous and curious I already see him looking for escape routes out of the pen. Athos also seems to be the bossier one... Porthos backs down but Athos seems to be the more dominant (despite being smaller). 4/20/24 Update: Athos is calmer than his brother laid back and more aloof. He doesn't seek out attention from people quite as much as Porthos but is very affectionate - he is content being held by anyone quieter and settles down quickly. He is mostly only interested in our dog when his brother is playing with her so I think he would be fine as the only dog with an active owner/family. He is more independent and less eager to please than his brother a little bit slower on the training :) but is very sweet and chill.
