I am so excited that all of our puppies from this litter have been reserved. It has been a pleasure to get to know all of the families who are welcoming these pups into their homes. I feel grateful that the puppies are going to be so loved and well cared for.
For those who had hoped to get a puppy from this litter and might be disappointed, please contact me and let me know if you might be interested in a pup from a future litter. I will be sure to let you know when we are “expecting” again! It won’t be for at least a year, since we like to give Sophie plenty of puppy-free time to relax and enjoy life without a bunch of hungry babies to care for!
In the meantime, the pups keep growing and growing! We are dealing with weaning right now. Sophie is such a good mommy and isn’t forcing the pups to stop nursing. I think she would just take care of them for many more weeks if she had to! So, now that they are nearly 6 weeks old and are heading home in two weeks, I am separating Sophie from the litter and decreasing the nursing time. Right now they get to nurse twice a day, and they are eating regular puppy chow frequently. My goal is to cut out the nursing completely within the next week.
Here are a few adorable videos to tide you over while you wait to bring your pups home! (Please excuse any background noise you might hear… that’s my husband and son playing together and being silly!)
Macey (formerly known as Olive) gets playful!
The whole crazy gang!
Thanks for posting these, Kelly! She is so cute…and I love that she is really interested in the fridge!
Loved the update! Thank you Kelly!
