This first year went by so very quickly, quicker than most. Here is a little check-in from our Mama Beetz/Laddie Litter. A super HAPPY BIRTHDAY to each and every pup. I love you all, and I’m so stoked for your young lives and all you are doing so far! Mama Beetz and Laddie created a…
11.5 WEEKS OLD
Well this is the last post for a good long while on this litter. I’ll be posting when this crew turns 1 year old! If you are new to these posts you can look back over the past 10 weeks to see all of the information and what it takes to whelp and raise a…
DAY #71
Well taking a puppy for a walk is more preparation than it is action. With three you have to have help, truth! Getting the puppies in harnesses, gathering rewards, passing each puppy to the appropriate person, and then off you go for a gloriously short micro walk. We went three houses down our street and…
Day #65 – #67
Put the pedal to the metal and GO! That is what it feels like with three puppies that are nearing 10 weeks of age.

DAY #59 & #60
My Mom calls once a week and asks – “how are my grandpuppies doing? Have you found them super good homes? How many are you keeping Nancy!?” Every week. She knows how much I love my animals. Well tomorrow starts the big transition. We have puppy owners arriving from out of state, they will spend…
DAY #57 & #58
