Stella's Puppies - Five and a Half Weeks!

Wow! It is amazing how fast time flies by... Just "yesterday" we were posting the three week pictures and now it is coming up on six... (I think our family trip over the school break made time go quickly too, but it still seems fast for us.) I'm sure those of you who have already adopted a puppy are on the edge of your seat for updates. I apologize for the delay!

Anyway, here we are at 5 1/2 weeks, and the puppies are growing exactly as expected. They are developing more personality, and they are active more frequently. The 23 hours of sleep each day are in the past!

The puppies are just finishing being nursed and are transitioning into dry foods. That process will take another week or so. Everything is progressing according to our expectations.

The FAQ page will give you more information about the puppies below. You can click this link, or click on the tab above. Thanks.

We have three puppies still available for adoption. 2 Girls, and 1 boy. They are:
Our Breeder's Choice Girl - Purple RibbonYellow Ribbon Girl; and Red Ribbon Boy.

"Enough blabbering already! Show me the puppies!"

As always, if you click on a picture, it will zoom to full size.

Let's start with the three puppies still available:

Breeder's Choice Girl - Purple Ribbon

She has the darkest coat of the three girls in the litter, and she is one of our daughter's favorites. She is very mild in temperament and has a wonderful coat.






Yellow Ribbon Girl 
(The flash and the lighting in some of the pictures plays tricks in the posted pictures. Yellow Girl is lighter than Purple Girl - but not by much.)

Yellow girl has always been one of the more active puppies in this litter. She isn't aggressive, or feisty, but she was one of the first to start "talking" to her siblings and always seems to be in the middle of the group; the center of attention.

She's a real cutey!







Red Ribbon Boy
He has always been the "snuggler." He has been the quietest one, and the one who would fall asleep in your arms the fastest. He has a very pretty coat, and the darker ears that seem to go with the lighter coat color.




And now on to the puppies that have already been adopted:

Breeder's Choice - Green Ribbon Boy "Sparty" - (HE IS ADOPTED)
You just can't go wrong with a name like "Sparty" - especially if you are a football fan. He was hard to photograph because he just kept wanting to crawl into our arms.






Blue Ribbon - Boy (He is the lightest color boy) (HE IS ADOPTED)
(My son calls him "Fluffy" because of his coat, but his family name will be "Sir Winston Alistair" - an awesome name for a very playful puppy.)





Tan Ribbon - Boy (HE IS ADOPTED)
(Full disclosure: we ran out of tan ribbon, so we had to use black. Black/Tan - sounded like a drink in an English pub, so we went with it.)
I think he is going to have a wonderful coat as he gets older.





Orange Ribbon - Girl (SHE IS ADOPTED)
She was the first puppy adopted in this litter, and still holds a wonderful spot in my daughter's heart. I think this is the puppy my daughter will cry over the most when she goes to her permanent home.

Puppies at Three Weeks

The puppies are 3 wees old, and the FAQ page will give you more information about the puppies below. You can click this link, or click on the tab above. Thanks.

*****************************************************************************************************

Three week old puppies do just about 4 things - and only 4 things. They eat, sleep, look adorable, and, well, make a mess. These puppies are completely normal in all these areas, except, maybe, the adorable part. That is their special skill!

Here they are at three weeks: As always, if you click on a picture, it will zoom to full size.

Puppy Rumble!

The puppies got a little frisky tonight. They were growling and barking at each other - if you can call their sound a "bark".

While my son was in the other room discussing which Nerf guns he wants for Christmas, I turned the video on.

I love the way their tails wag, and the way they are still stumbling as they walk. I also like the image of one little puppy dreaming away through the skirmish - oblivious to all around her.

Enjoy!
