nyssa – Aug 1, 2004 12:00 AM

Today Nyssa is 81 days old. She greeted the morning shift with a submissive rollover and lots of facial licking. Nyssa and her littermates weren't very active during most of the morning and early afternoon because of hot and humid weather. Nyssa and her littermates were sprayed down with a hose to help cool them down. Nyssa lost control of a deer leg during one of the programs which seems to be usual because of Nyssa's aggressive feeding behavior. During the evening Nyssa and her littermates became much more active as they were all chasing one another around in the puppy pen.
