Penny's adorable blobs of cuteness are now 2 weeks old! (Seems like just yesterday...)
Their eyes are starting to show signs of opening, and they are starting to use their legs as legs, and not just paddles. These actions are right on target, and "all systems are go" The puppies are growing, as expected, and Penny continues to be a loving and caring mommy.
Penny had a total of 7 puppies - 5 boys and 2 girls. We have 2 boys and 1 girl reserved - we'll make final selection decisions in the next 2 weeks. That leaves 1 girl and 3 boys still available.Let me know as soon as possible, if you are interested in being added to the list.
Now for the pictures! These are in no particular order, just which ones were closest to where I was.
HELPFUL HINT: I am often asked about the coat of the puppies, and what they will look like when they are older. Over the past 8 years, I have seen young puppies with curly coats end up with straighter coats, and vice versa, however those changes are less common. Penny's coat is curly, and naturally weaves together, almost in braids. The Dad, Billy, has a standard straighter coat. If you want a grown dog with a curlier coat, then selecting a puppy with a curly coat will get you much closer to your goal. Final coats most often "come in" around 9 months of age. We will see tendencies now, but until their final coat comes in, I really can't promise anything - I wish I could!
Here we go!

Miss White
Mr. Orange
He is the smallest of the boys, and is showing a wavy/curly coat. She also has a little white "blaze" on her chest.

You can just see the white blaze on her chest

Mr. Light Blue
He started his photo shoot more interested in sleeping than "posing," but once he got into it, he really perked up.
Mr. Yellow
A true "sleeper". He wanted to take a nap, and nothing more.
Mr. Dark Blue
He probably has the darkest coat right now, and his eyes are the closest to being open.
Miss Purple
Our second girl. Cute and adorable. A little camera shy, but cute and snuggly.

Mr Tan (My daughter things I should call him "mr. Beige" but I'm not sure I'm ready for that...)
It's quite possible that he slept through the entire photo shoot. He certainly was less "animated" than many of them.
