Five Wrinkly Puppies Fit Into Just One Pair of Hands
Five white Bulldog puppies are cupped in a single pair of hands, stacked like a tiny pyramid of wrinkles. Each face is round and squished, with pink noses, small folded ears, and serious dark eyes. A stuffed toy and a soft blanket sit in the background, and the person holding them wears a gray sleeve, steadying the whole bunch with great care.
Newborn and very young puppies are small and fragile, so careful handling is important. Support the body fully, hold the puppy close, and never let her dangle or wriggle free. Wash your hands before handling very young pups, and keep sessions short so the mother and littermates are not stressed. Your vet can give advice about when it is right to handle a new litter.
Bulldogs have a short, broad build and a flat face, and they are known for sweet and calm personalities. Because of their short muzzles, they may snore, snort, and breathe noisily, and they need extra care in warm weather. A good breeder will talk openly about health, and your vet can advise on how to look after a Bulldog's breathing and skin folds.
The five in this picture are all quiet and curious, and none seems to mind the crowd. It is hard not to smile at such a pile of wrinkles, and harder still to say who is cutest. They all take first place.
