What a great day! Always one of the most enjoyable aspects of raising pups comes when I get the opportunity to meet the people destined to become their caretakers going forward. Today the pups and I welcomed 3 families. First- Peter, Annette and their daughter who are waiting for a pup from an upcoming litter but have watched our current litter grow along with us. A lovely family who are no strangers to the world of Dobermans. They remain, at this point, in the preparing for incoming phase.
Next up and coinciding, arrived Jason and Tiffany to set claim on their new addition. The pups thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the extra attention. And they got a lot of it throughout the day. I knew the selection process wasn't going to be easy but I think it proved to be down right difficult. After much contemplation it was Purple who won the hearts of Tiffany and Jason and officially became our pick of the litter male. They've named him Loki and will welcome him to their home with a couple kids as well as a fur kid of the Dane variety that has very recently joined them. I'm guessing the the two pups will have a blast growing up together and my second guess would be that Tiffany and Jason will have their hands- and hearts very full. Sounds as though they've done considerable research though and have a great game plan in place. I very much look forward to watching the two pups grow up together and hope we'll see much of them, including Cole their Great Dane on our litter page.
Next, after a brief rest, we were joined by Jordan and Daimeun. Again, another tough choice was made. After much contemplation and some studying of the pups behavior and reaction to Daimeun's attempt to engage each of them, they narrowed things down to three... or maybe four. It was a start! But in trying to choose among the final four it seemed there was a bit of back and forth going on. In the end it was our Brown collared boy who came out on top. He has been given the name Ryker and will join their family, which includes Kaya, a four legged playmate and gorgeous specimen of the breed. Kaya is obviously much loved and I have no doubt Ryker will be too.
Tomorrow we're set to meet Xavier, Lisa and John and will be close to wrapping up selection of the boys with just three of eight remaining.
