Day #50 – Fun with frozen raw fish day!

A holiday you say? Why yes, it is National Fun with Frozen Raw Fish Day! Or it is to my Sexy Beasts at the very least. Today, as in right now, when you enter my house, there is a faint harbor, back bay, baby seal scent. Delicate, but it’s there. And the occasional sparkly scale….

Day #49 – WOOP!

It was a busy morning of cleaning, playing, snuggling, and cleaning some more. Rhumb is looking healthier and healthier which tells me she may not be producing as much milk, even though she still wants her pups to nurse, and nurse they do but not for very long any more. She is engaging the puppies…

Day #48 – Mama School

This video says it all – I love Rhumb for so many reasons, but watching her be a Mama to these pups, and giving them such awesome life lessons, well another reason – Nancy

Day #47 – a great big puppy day

We had a great outdoor day, in the dirt, fresh air, and with a bit of sunshine. But there was no wind, so we’ll take it! You might be saying, big deal, it’s outside? Well it was 17 degrees yesterday and in the 47 days these Sexy Beasts have been with us, we have had…

DAY # 47 – Happy Easter

The Sexy Beasts are taking a wee little rest right now so I can do house chores, office work, laundry, and write for a few minutes. The full moon and growing pains had us up every hour on the hour last night. They are definitely like their Mama in that regard. When she was a…

DAY #44 – reaching out into the bigger world

I had it all done for all eight dogs before 7:30am – cleaned up, changed potty pads, pottied adult dogs outside, did a raw grind for 24 adult dog meals, did a raw grind for the puppies, fed everyone, cleaned up again, played and snuggled with everyone, and then the real day began. Car rides,…

Day #42 – 6 weeks old!

The days of lots of sleep, teetering about, snuggling for hours is gone. For now anyway. The Sexy Beasts are 6 weeks old and they want to fly, explore, get out and move, and sink their new teeth into everything. As they should. They are coming up with new games, new inventions, and new rules…

DAY #38 – Outside puppy day

Today was gorgeous, super muddy, but gorgeous. Lots of sunshine and warmth. So I prepared the deck for an afternoon of puppy enrichment and play. We had visitors this afternoon, and teenagers that came over this evening, so also a social type of day. #5, Cusco, a.k.a Prok Chop, is still big, but his sister,…

DAY #37 – busy, busy, busy

We no longer have border collie nuggets. We no longer have multiple Night Circus performances. We no longer have gentle toothless mouths tugging on us. We have full on Sexy Beasts occupying our puppy romper room. They are growing, filling out, becoming super curious about everything, teething like crazy, really playful with us, their Mama,…

Day #29 – bone day

If you accidentally mistake a predator and opportunistic scavenger for a cute sugary puppy, just put down a bone or two and you will be quickly reminded who is in your presence. Today was raw meaty bone day, yahoo! I saved a bunch of riblets from the lambs out at the ranch where Rhumb and…
