Tory’s 12 April Fools are one year old today, while back in Orford Kadie’s 12 Starry Nights are just 6 weeks old, what a comparison! During the past week the puppies have started going outside. At the beginning this is just an introduction to the idea of outside versus inside and getting used to new [...]
The puppies are doing great. They have changed so much which is typical at this young age. The puppies have progressed to a bigger play area and the whelping box which they had outgrown is gone. The photos from this week were taken while cleaning up the area and laying down new bedding before going [...]
We’ve even got the teeny tiny harnesses and everything…just kidding, although that would make for some pretty funny photos.

All the puppies in our 2009 Striker x Kadie litter are doing great! Weights are increasing as expected with numbers from yesterday’s Woodcrest weigh in ranging from 1 1/4lb to 1 3/4lb. There is more than enough milk to go around for all 12. We have not had to supplement at all. Puppies have started [...]
