Actually the three of them will be heading south to Richmond, VA next Thursday.The others shown are:Nantucket - who will live in Akron, PA...still waiting for a new name to be chosen tho;Mavericks - living now in Long Island, NY - and called Lincoln;Marbella - now in Massachusetts and called Minnie;and Makaha - who is close by in Hatfield, PA and her new name is Zoey.Not pictured yet are Sebastian who will keep his name and is living in Bethlehem and will be shown by Darlene and Malibu, now called Cooper and living in NE Phila. Their pictures will be posted soon.
To the "doggy chiropractor" this evening. We like to take the litters to her for a bone structure check up and adjustment if needed. She is so wonderfully gentle with all animals, large and small, and the pups got to have the run of the office and meet new friends!
It will be time for us all to head on out to our new homes! We thought you would enjoy seeing our faces now that we are a bit older.... Malibu and Sebastian are the two boys that do not show their name plates, and at the bottom are Waikiki and Sunset.. (and NO -- we do NOT have any blue eyes, but some reason some of them look more blue than dark brown).
The pups got their first taste of "show dog" pictures....and actually cooperated rather well...the girls are pictured on the pink towel and the boys on the blue....the order for the first two girls where their names are not easily seen: Marbella and Makaha. The first boy shown is Sebastian. All the other name plates are easily seen.
What a fun day - Two sets of puppy visitors, one all the way from Richmond, VA! We spent the afternoon in the sun and also got to chase Momma Kirra out in the grass. The pictures below show us in the puppy pen. More visitors coming in a couple of days and then we will have "formal" set up pictures taken (like mini show dogs!) Watch for update either Tuesday nite or Wednesday during the day.
WHAT A CHANGE FROM THE LAST PICTURES!!!!Puppies spent time outdoors in the lovely summer-like temperatures on Saturday and Sunday. Visitors came this weekend also and so lots of extra socialization. Hearing testing is set for this Thursday morning, so we will post again after that. Right now, all puppies are very uniform in size and type and we are looking forward to some nice show prospects in the group.
Now that we have more distinctive spotting and it is easier to tell us apart, we have NAMES! Each litter has a theme, and the one for this litter is "Surfer Beaches" since momma Kirra is Tidal Wave ... our names are various beaches where surfers congegate....some will be more familiar to you than others, but all are well known to those who surf for recreation or competition. And, as before....boys on blue and girls on pink: (and remember...you can click on a picture and have it enlarged full screen). Next update will we next weekend, when puppies will be entertaining their first visitors.
