*****
3/26/11 - It was a very busy week! New families came to pick up their "babies"...and oh what good babies they are! Everyone was pleased with their pup, and all pups were very well behaved...lots of kisses, potty before travel, not too much nipping (we're teething after all), and over all peaceful, happy pups. New owners pictures with their pups are above... and 7 week old portraits...REALLY cute! are below. :)
3/21/11 - PUPS begin to go home this week-MAN, we'll miss them, but SO very happy they will go to such fine families who will love them...finally pictures today...
3/17/11 - Puppies are eating all dry food now...and lots of it! Will nurse at night a couple more times (maybe) then that's it for Mom (Charlotte isn't complaining!) Bear (the cat beast) was such a good sport as always...has "played" with all puppies now...he is the best sport ever! 6 week and final puppy portraits will be this week.
3/16/11 - Puppies went for their first round of puppy shots today. Oh my...I just can't say enough about how good these guys are! 2-1/2 hours in the Vet's office-no one cried when shot was given (didn't even flinch); No one wet in the cart (2 shopping carts full of babies...SO sweet! No one complained about the very warm crowded conditions in the cart while waiting (ok, maybe a peep or 2-while adjusting position:), EVERYONE waited until they got home to go potty! We couldn't be more proud! Everyone is in tip-top condition! (Gus' family came to see him at the Vet :)
3/15/11 - Puppies are growing like crazy! So much happening, no time to post for you...sorry for the delay in updates. Puppies had their first bath today...these dogs LOVE the water!! Everyone sat so nicely for bathtime...as if to say...awwwww..just what I've been waiting for!...such good babies. You will be amazed at how good these kids are!
3/14/11 - Beginning tonight, pups start sleeping 2 at a time in small crate (wire) Doing great so far. After first rotation, will have them in alone in 2 separate crates.
3/3/11 - So much happening...pups are really learning what "pain" is...biting play is pretty intense and a lot of yelping going on...but they're learning what "That hurts!" means. :( Pups are learning to stand for grooming, and went on their first "field trip March 1st. (pictures below) Pups were wormed for the 3rd time this week. Pups are drinking water from their bowl now.
2/28/11 - Mom begins weaning pups this week (with our help). Pups are really having a good time now, playing and
rolling around together. Pups have lots of little teeth coming in, so are teething and learning to use their chew toys. This week, they will receive their 3rd worming. Pups all show interest in duck and pheasant wings. :) Art was amused by a couple of the pups, who wanted to be carried...they cried, he carried. He stopped walking...they cried. He walked again, they were happy...They are babies after all!
2/25/11 - Pup selections take place this weekend...Yay! We will be able to call ALL the puppies by name :)
2/24/11 - Pups are growing at a good pace-development is right on track. Personalities are starting to shine through this week. They are playing more, and they all LOVE to sniff those duck and pheasant wings. They have started eating a little gruel between meals. Also having lots of successes getting to their potty...they're well on their way! New pictures below-3 weeks old . Some are a little blurry-unfortunately didn't have time to retake. But there will be more in a couple weeks.
2/19/11 - What smart little pups! I've seen at least half already going potty in their potty area. They wake up, stretch, and waddle/scoot over to do their business, then go back to the other side and "play" with someone for a few seconds, then flop back to sleep. :) They usually start that at the beginning of their 4th week. (next week) Of course they aren't 100% successful, but to be trying is the neat thing.
2/18/11 -Pups are growing fast- Eyes are all open now-so cute! Often on all 4's - very wobbly :). For a couple days now, have seen some interaction between pups - a little playfulness. Pups are being handled daily. Best for pups not to have visitors until week for picks-weekend of 26th. A few new photos have been added. ... next puppy portraits in a few days.
2/15/11 - More of the pups have opened their eyes...but not yet all...love to see that little sparkle. Moved pups to phase II box yesterday evening...getting ready for more active pups and, yes...potty training, which is instinctive if provided a space.
2/14/11 - Pups are beginning their 3rd week today - by the end of the today, 3 pups had opened their eyes...and off and on are on their feet. So cute!
2/13/11 - Oh, what fun we're having!... couldn't wait for next week took portraits of pups (last night)...thought about waiting for their eyes to open, but just way too cute now...more photos next week so you can see that little twinkle shining through. :) Their eyes will all be open by Tuesday... Pups are moving around quite a bit more. Not walking yet, but will be soon... lots of new pictures for you to enjoy!
2/7/11 - Pups are 1 week old now, and have doubled their birth weight. They are moving around more quickly and all are holding their own at the "dinner table." :) Mom helps to keep it fair.
2/4/11- Pups had their first car ride today...and in the snow! They went to see Dr. McWilliams for dew claw removal early in the morning. Pups are doing fine. He said they are all good, strong beautiful puppies .... and he said he wasn't sure if he got them all back in their travel bed...may have dropped one into his pocket!Ha-ha! They were happy to come back home to Mom and a clean bed. All are sleeping now.
1/31/11-2/1/11-Charlotte went into labor around 10 A.M., and pups were born between 11 A.M. and 12 midnight. All went very smoothly. Needless to say, she was a very tired girl all day on Tuesday (me, too!)

_______________________
We not only emphasize the importance of a pup's bloodline, but also the great value in a healthy beginning, mixed with the very important socialization for each pup. We think it's the individual attention given to each and every pup that makes us stand out from many of the others! With us, it's a family affair-from 4 year old Nash to 98 year old Grandma....your pup will meet us all....
We have now bred our beautiful dam with an excellent sire. Their pups are from great bloodlines like: NFC, 2X NAFC SUPER CHIEF, GMPR Sir Hershey of Surrey, and Candlewoods Mad Mouse.
Also in their pedigree are names like .....Trumarc's and Kellogg's
We feel our pups have the same potential as their great ancestors! And even better than that, both parents have a gentle nature, and respond very well to obedience -
Chief and Charlotte's babies will want to please you, because that's how they are!!!
Charlotte (our dam) is such a loyal girl - a great temperament and wants to stay by your side, unless you tell her otherwise!
