Kittens Now

Our mama cat, Scamper, had a litter or kittens three weeks ago. Here are some pictures of them now.

Biscuit - little female with a black spot.

Boo - totally jet-black male.

Button - white girl with grey spot.

 

Aren't they adorable? They are so sweet and precious, and I can't wait to watch them get bigger!



An Update! (I always love them!)

With pictures, too! That makes it double the fun! You all really don't know just how much pleasure it gives me to hear from people who have gotten a puppy from us!

Hi! Well, long time no talk! Busy with Lola. She is doing great. She is out side all the time playing with the kids. Potty [training] well - avoiding outside poops. Well, that we are working on. Everybody that meets her loves her - plenty of babysitters. Goes to bed at 9 and still getting up at 5:00 - 5:30 but hoping it gets better. Got her first spa treatment last week with a hair cut so cute!! ... Hope to keep in touch. Thanks so so much - we love her and can not imagine my life with out her. ~Judy

And is the picture that Judy sent of Lola just after her spa treatment. Isn't she adorable!

Well, thank you again Judy, and I can't wait to recieve more updates and pictures!

 

Update from Cooper (Kestrel)

I just received an email the other day that warmed my heart. It was from the family that adopted Kestrel, whom they've now named Cooper.

It read:

"Hi Sarah,
I hope you & your family are well! Just wanted to send an updated picture of Cooper! He continues to be such a perfect addition to our family! He lost his two front baby teeth, which was so funny (& cute)! We've given him 1 haircut - which we probably won't do again :-) we certainly are not professionals!! I keep him trimmed around the face, but we'll leave the rest to the groomers!!
Ok, just wanted you to know that he is so loved!"

I just have to say thank you so much for updating me! I really enjoy getting the latest reports! Keep them coming! :-)

  

Updates

Hello everyone! All the puppies are either at their new homes, or on their way there right now (Phoebe, the last puppy, is flying to Oregon as I type). So far, we have Chickadee, now named Lola Petunia, in Massachusetts; Jay, lengthened to Cooper Jay, in Pennsylvania; Kestrel, renamed Cooper, and Lark, who I believe is still Lark, right here in Minnesota; and lastly Phoebe, soon to be Zeeva, going to Oregon. That's all the puppies in litter 2012! I want to say a big thank you to the new families for giving our babies such excellent homes! I couldn't be happier!

I wanted to post a couple pictures that got sent to me today by the owners of Cooper (Kestrel). By the way, I love it when new owners send me pictures and updates! Keep them coming! If you send me family photos of you with your new puppy, I can (if you'd like) post it on this blog so everyone can see them! Here are the photos of Cooper:

Some of you have asked when we're going to have another litter. The answer is: We are considering a winter or spring litter. So, keep your eyes on this blog, follow it, and/or Contact Us and we'll let you know as soon as we're planning a definite litter. Thanks so much everyone!    

Not Completely Alone

Our last puppy, Phoebe (who is spoken for), is left all alone now that all the other puppies have gone to new homes. It will be her turn in a couple of weeks. :-) In the meantime, Phoebe would be feeling very lonely. Except for the fact that she has a few special friends. And here are the pictures of them playing together:



Last Puppy

Our last puppy, my little Lark-boy, went to his forever home just this morning. So, to any of you who were still interested in getting a puppy, I'm sorry, but we have none left in this litter. However, Contact Us anyway, and I'll let you know when we have any future litters. Thanks so much!

My favorite photo of my Teddy-Bear.
I'm so happy he went to such a wonderful home!

"We're All Ready!"

Hello everybody! The puppies are now 9 weeks old and all ready to go to their new families! Two puppies left just today--Jay and Chickadee. But Kestrel, Lark, and Phoebe are still around, and what's more, Larky-boy is STILL AVAILABLE! Here's some highlights of our weekly photo shoot, and, like always, you can view the individual pictures on our Available Pups page. Enjoy!

This week I did all the photos in our van to help the puppies say, "We're ready to go to our new homes!" :-)

I got two group photos that I really liked:

"When you'll gonna come take us home?
We're gettin' tired of waitin'!" :-P

Of course, two puppies make the perfect pose, and I just manage to catch it... only to realize that I forgot to turn on my flash! Well, what else could I do but crank up all the settings in my photo editor, and turn those pictures into really "old", grainy, discolored photos. And, what do you know, these two turned out to be my favorite photos from the whole shoot! :-)

The Time has Come...

...For the puppies to start going to their new homes and owners. They are 8 weeks old today. It's a bittersweet time. We're very sad to see them go--we love them all so much--but at the same time, we're very happy with the wonderful homes and new families they're going to!

But, for those of you who are thinking that you've missed out on a puppy, I've got good news: You haven't! We still have one puppy available! Lark is the baby of the bunch. He loves to be pampered and petted. He also the curliest, so that's why I call him my teddy bear. :-) See our Available Pups page for updated individual pictures, and enjoy these random ones from our 8-week-old photo shoot:

But first, don't forget the weekly group photo:

Lark, Jay, Kestrel, Phoebe, and Chickadee.

 

Chickadee-girl! Soon to be Lola Petunia! :-)

Good News!

Hey everyone! You'll never guess the good news!

As you all know, we've been working with our puppies on manners training and some beginner potty training. We started around 3-4 weeks old with paper training, which the puppies caught on to very quickly. We then moved on to crate training.

Now here's the good news:
The puppies can now make it all the way through the night in their crate without wetting their bed! They go for 8 hours (9 pm - 5 am) and then go outside to go potty in the morning!

This is going to make it so much easier for those of you who are getting a puppy from us to finish completely potty training! :-)

Seven Weeks

Hello everyone! The puppies are now seven weeks old, and they can start going home with their new owners in just one more week! Are you all excited? I know I'm very happy with all the good homes that these puppies are going to be going to. But for those of you who feel like you're missing out on all the fun, it's not too late yet! We still have one puppy left available: Lark! We've have about four people interested in him right now, but no one has made a definite decision about him, so you can jump on your chance to add a sweet, loving puppy to your family.

Today all the puppies had a bath, got brushed and trimmed around the eyes, and then had their de-worming and their first round of shots! They are now all up-to-date on their shots and de-worming, almost ready for their new homes--just one more week of wait!

After their up-to-dating, we had our weekly photo shoot. Here's this week's group photo:

In the baby buggy! :-)
