Eight Weeks

Here's the video we took yesterday.  Pups are eight weeks.  I tried to video each separately, but Abatha's didn't turn  out.

Enjoy!

Seven weeks old as of last Tuesday.

New type of dog tag

While microchips are indispensable this is another great idea:


Scan Me Home pet tags are easily scanned by any smart phone ~ which provides the animal's "finder" with instant information. No need to upset the pet and take it to the nearest Vet to scan a microchip. If you do not have a smart phone, simply go to our website and enter the serial number on the tag... which will provide you with the same profile page.
Each pet profile includes: a photograph of the animal, contact information (up to 3 phone numbers) the pet's date of birth & breed; the veterinarian, rabies, registration and microchip number; gender, medical and dietary information. There is even an additional information section where you can add anything you want about your pet. If your pet is lost the person who finds them will have all of the information they need to take care of your pet and quickly contact you to return him/her home safely.

Six Weeks Old on Tuesday.

It's pretty cold outside today, but the pups seemed to cope with it fairly well.  It'll be a while before they get enough undercoat to keep them warm.

Six Weeks

Five and a half weeks

New video

Not the greatest video, tried to take them out two at a time in the rain, but they weren't very happy about that.  This weekend for sure we'll get some good shots.

Spooky Holloween

Dunka from George and Willow (black and white) and Migo from Lucy and Rico

Please stop raining!

These puppies NEED to go outside!  They are in need of a good run around so do hope this rain stops soon.

I call these two the twins, simply because they play together all the time.

Tried to get pictures of everyone in the "Pot of Gold" but....

All I got was Cayke and Betsy.  The rest didn't turn out.  Everyone got a bath today and nails cut, no issues, all were pretty calm.  They have all taken well to puppy food mixed with milk replacer but still love  mom best.  No upset tummies, or anything involved with the digestive track which is nice. :-)

Am working on video of them playing in the kitchen, if the power doesn't go out.  Hope to get them outside soon.

Baron from the summer litter

Mom, Willow, and  puppies get a bath today.  They love the puppy mush so much they are wearing it, walking in it and then licking it off each other.  :-)

In the the mean time here is five month old Baron from the Lusa and JJ litter.  They are such a happy bunch that they keep wagging their tails even when getting shots from the vets.  Baron's vet says she's never seen a puppy like Baron.  :-)

Glinda, 3 and a half weeks.

Betsy Bobbins 4 weeks, 3 days

Cayke (pronounced cake) 4 weeks and 3 days

Abatha - 4 weeks and 3 days

The Wizard 4 weeks, 3 days

Auntie Em - 4 weeks and 3 days

Lots of kisses this morning and see seemed to be very curious about any changes in her environment.

Big sister Dunka from two years ago

This is Dunka, a full sister to the litter we have right now.  There were a few "thank you"s in various languages because they were born on Thanksgiving eve - Merci, Dunka, Jaden, Gracias, but then there was Rick Rack because he had that pattern down his back and Mouse who was totally white. He is now a beautiful cream color.

If you want to see them after they were born then go here:

Then there were seven

Puppies are eating from the dog bowl as well as mom.

Litter Update

The pups had their nails cut today for the first time.  It didn't seem to bother than at all.

They also are out in the living room area which is the earliest we've ever brought a litter out of the whelping room.  Not only are they fully mobile, but going to the bathroom on the pee pads at 3.5 weeks - that's why I left the picture in with the stained pads in it.  I think this is going to be one smart bunch of puppies.

Last George/Willow Puppies

Merci and Dunka are two full sisters to this George/Willow litter.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Here is a member of the George - Willow litter born two years ago and sister to Merci. This is Dunka and she's enjoying her turkey toy a bit early.  Do you think that there will be a puppy in this litter that looks a lot like her?
