Almost 8 weeks, Monday, April 18, 2016

The pups will be 8 weeks old tomorrow, Tuesday, April 19.  Not sure where the past 8 weeks have gone, feels like they were just being born.  Over the next few days the pups will be venturing out - and headed to their forever homes with their new forever families.  We sure will miss these little pumpkins.

​Play before the rain, Friday, April 1, 2016

With the projected forecast calling for rain, snow and COLD temps we decided the morning would be best spent playing outside with ALL the pups (Izzie's and Sandie's litters).  ​

Izzie's Puppies Have Arrived, Tuesday, February 23, 2016

Izzie welcomed a beautiful litter of 8 puppies a bit earlier than we had planned (due date of Sunday, 2/28).  Though she took me by surprise, momma was ready to welcome her babies and did a fantastic job.  Izzie's litter has 6 apricot boys (with white markings) and 2 apricot girls (with white markings).  Momma and babes are doing well - eating, sleeping and cuddling. (Picture below is from Sunday, March 6, 2016 @ 1.5 weeks).
