Lilly's Puppies - One Week Old

Here they are: Lilly's puppies are one week old and they are just a mass of squirming, snuggling, squeaking, adorableness. At this age, that's about all they do.

We have colored collars on all of the pups - but they are NOT indicative of anything other than, "what's the next collar color available?" I sometimes have people ask me if the red collar means they are the feisty one,,, No, I am not nearly smart enough to think through that. Just enjoy the pictures!

Boys: Red, Green and Dark Blue

Girls: Pink, Yellow, Purple, Light Blue, Orange

As always, if you click on a picture it will zoom/enlarge a bit.

Pink: Girl





 Red: Boy






Yellow: Girl



Blue (Dark): Boy




Green: Boy (RESERVED)






Purple: Girl







Light Blue: Girl









 Orange: Girl








Proof that there really are 8 puppies. The above pictures all look about the same!!

Lilly's Puppies!

Lilly has just given birth to 6 healthy little puppies. There are 5 girls and 1 boy and since we already have a reservation for "the first boy" we really only have 5 girls available. 

We'll have more details posted soon. Stay tuned!

UPDATE: apparently ultrasounds are not as reliable as previously thought. We now have a total of 8 (EIGHT) puppies and the last two "surprise" puppies are both boys. Our new count is 5 girls and 3 boys! Pictures soon!!

A Little Help Please?!

Pupcake, our family dog, is much bigger than Penny, our family puppy. In spite of that, or because of that, Penny likes to tease Pupcake whenever she can. 

Pupcake loves to play with Penny, and is usually the "alpha" dog with the toys, but sometimes Penny grabs the current toy and runs back into their kennel to play. 

Pupcake will rarely go in after her - even though they sleep together in the same crate all night long!

Here is Penny playing with her captured green toy and Pupcake at a loss for getting it back. Pupcake will frequently sit down and stare at Penny and whine to me about her inability to go in and get it back from Penny. 

Poor Pupcake!!

"Please let me have it back!! Please?"

"Why aren't you helping me?"

This is just for size comparison.

Yes, it's true! Apparently today is National Puppy Day. I'm going to celebrate by buying more dog food and some special dog treats!

You can celebrate by letting us know you are interested in one of our puppies! We expect to have 6 available around the end of June. (Expected birthdate April 28)

Let us know if you would like more info.

Remember: Celebrate responsibly - designate a dog walker up front!

Puppies Are Coming!!

We took Lilly in for an ultrasound today and saw 6 little puppies staring back at us. Well, more figuratively than actually looking. The puppies are less than an inch in size right now and they are due around the end of April. 

Lilly handled the process beautifully. As she lay on her back for the ultrasound, she casually turned her head as if to look at the screen. Both the vet and the technician laughed at how "human" Lilly looked. 

Here's a picture of Lily on her way back home. Very relaxed!

March Update!

As of March 1st, all of our guardian dogs are placed. We are considering adding a male poodle to our "flock," so let me know if you would possibly be interested in housing a non-neutered male poodle. 

We are hopeful of having a new litter of puppies near the end of April. They will be the puppies of Lilly (an English Cream Retriever) and Bailey (a standard poodle). 

We estimate the size of the grown puppies to be approximately 50 pounds. If everything turns out as we hope, they will be ready to go home near the end of June. 

Stay tuned!!

Mint Girl Has Been Adopted!

Yes, a wonderful family adopted mint ribbon girl last night. They plan to raise her and train her to be a therapy dog. What a great thing to do!

We have Purple ribbon girl remaining and she is going to leave a hole for me when she goes to her new home. I have loved playing with her in our yard. She runs right into my arms and jumps into my lap... She's adorable. 

If you are someone who will love and enjoy Purple girl as much as I do, please give me a call or send me an email. We'll set up a time for you to meet her. 

Purple girl is on the left in the picture below.
