Welcome Week Six!!!

Just a little over two weeks till these babes go in for their crops in preparation of joining their families. It's been a busy week but a good one. Weather wise we've enjoyed some gorgeous days! Not too hot and not to cold and very minimal rain. A few drizzles here and there. A nice change. Early in the week I took the pups out individually for some time with mom. Photos of each were taken but I've yet to find time to get them uploaded. This evening I managed to go through them to select my favorites. So, maybe tomorrow. That's the plan tonight anyway.

After what seems like months of never ending crappy weather I decided it was time to take advantage of the break in weather and check off a couple outdoor projects from the to do list. Friday was set aside to do some repairs on the small dog run off the back of the house. Adjoining the run is a large deck surrounded by privacy fence and off the deck, a large 8x4 dog house. It's the spot I generally reserve for pups as they get older. A spot where they can enjoy some extended outdoor time on nice days, get used to another form of containment and experience a wide range of stimulation as I go about chores around the ole homestead. Chores of late have centered around rotting wood. Old wood and constant dampness caused by rain have proven to be a bad combination! I noticed a small hole in the flooring of the dog house a couple litters back which over the course of time, with the help undoubtedly of a bit of chewing and digging, has only grown in size. Seems these things never fix themselves. As far as the fencing goes, it too was starting to deteriorate along the bottom edge to the point a determined pup could potentially squeeze under or get caught up in an attempt. So... repairs were in order and I'm happy to say, now complete. In the process, the pups had a chance to get acquainted with some banging and clattering going on around them as well as the sounds of power tools. Then today, safe and secure, they settled in to the newly revamped area while I rode the rider around the property. They looked on with interest as the big bad Hustler approached and then retreated. Then seemingly unfazed, they resumed busying themselves with a few toys and each other under a very light intermittent drizzle. And I made good progress on leaf collection and general spring cleaning.

​Yesterday we enjoyed visits from Sandy and Tom who arrived to get the selection process of the boys started. As expected and as is typical there was a bit of back and forth going on but at the end of the day it was my green collared boy who won them over. They've decided on the name Thor! 

Next up, just as Sandy and Tom were heading out, Nate along with his wife and son arrived to meet their girl.  Interestingly enough, Nate called me a while back when he noticed a pup from my last litter was given the name he'd chosen for his girl. I assured him it really wasn't a problem... that at least it wasn't Zeus of which there are four! So Nyx it is for the little princess of the litter. 

The pups were quick to warm up to new comers and seemed to love the additional interaction and attention. But I'll tell you what -it's true what they say!  A tired puppy is a good puppy! They slept like rocks once back in their habitat following the visits. In all their outing probably consisted of about four hours. A lot for pups. Knowing this I held Nyx back while Sandy and Tom were here for fear she'd be worn out and sleep through Nate's visit. As it turned out the boys started to wind down and were taken in 
individually as their batteries began to weaken. Their stamina though is definitely increasing!!! Nate informs me it's unlikely the whole family will be able to make the trip for pick up so I decided yesterday was the day if any to get their first official family photo! 

​And tomorrow, I'm hopeful I'll get week seven photos taken and uploaded. Weights are posted!

Hi Debi. You are right. I had such a tough time making a final decision as to which pup would be our baby. They all are gorgeous. I would have brought them all home if I could. I think Tom did have his mind made up but once I saw all three of them it was very hard for me. My two pups here at home could not figure out why we smelled like other pups. It was fun watching the pups with tons of energy and very slowly winding down. Thank You for having us and can’t wait to pick up our boy.

Once again Sandy it was a pleasure. Your wait for a pup has been a long and somewhat drawn out one... but we're getting there.
