A little note from us... As the time nears closer to picking up/delivering the puppies, I realize I have become so attached to all these little guys. It is going to be so hard letting them go. I know they are going to good people and that is all I can ask for but all the same it's going to be a bit hard. Heck, if it were up to me I'd probably want to keep at least one from every litter but I know I can't do that! So, I am just trying to soak it all up now while I can before they go to their forever homes. I hope you all enjoy your new babies as much as we have.
They are starting to play more now and it is so much fun to watch. It is also neat how each one of them has their own little unique personality. They have all become my personal favorites. There is just something to love in every single one of them. I love this breed of dog and have had so much pleasure raising and taking care of the puppies until you all are ready for them to come "home". They are all very healthy and very happy puppies! They go in for their vet check on the 25th already! That should be interesting hauling in momma and all 5 babies, this will be their first outing. They are growing up so fast- just want them to stay babies forever. Nora is slowly weening them but I have not wanted her to quit completely just yet, I like this baby phase to much and I think she does too. But suppose it won't be to much longer perhaps in the next week or so. They are also eating puppy food with milk replacer right now and they are loving that.
We hope once you all get your pups home, you keep in touch and let us know how it's going along with photos once in a while if you can or if you have time. It would be fun to see how they are coming along in their new homes as they grow.
I will post more pictures between now and this weekend, had a bit of computer troubles but am back up and running now! ~ Michelle & Mark ~
