Puppies 5 weeks old



Running, jumping, barking and growling (and yes some biting!)...Playing with toys and running to say hello when I show myself. All the puppies are up and away and learning more every day. I keep both litters together during this transition period while they eat breakfast and most of the day and still sleep with their mommas at night. By next week they will eat crunchy food instead of soft, spending less time with their moms and will be closer to going to their new homes. Everyone came to visit from far and near to visit their new puppy this past weekend. It was a pleasure to meet all the families and talk with them. I always am reassured that I made the right choice for them to take a puppy when I meet personally with them. Each and every family is ready to open their homes and hearts to their new addition.

Delilah's Fly boys.
Everyone was impressed with Dragonfly's size bc of course he has been the biggest for a while- but Firefly has learned to stick up for himself and the last few times I heard a cry - it was coming from poor Dragon- with his tan points he resembles a bully- but rest assured - he loves kisses and loves to be held- he is the most mature to date and loves to explore.
Firefly has found his wings and is jumping and playing with everything. He still cries for his mom sometimes when she is not around- but has come to accept me better and know I am bringing something good for him most of the time.

Megan and John got to meet their little boy, Dragonfly who will be renames BRADY

Rolene and Henry loved Firefly so much - they are still trying to decide on a name.

Delilah is a wonderful mom.

Lala's Forest Friends
The 3 little musketeers are a few days younger then the Fly boys and take their time catching up. They are cute as can be and are developing their personalities.
Bunny- the only girl between the 2 litters holds her own very well, enjoys being loved by Rose (bc she is the only girl) and loves to give kisses. Bobby is having fun challenging Dragonfly because he can...LOL! He also is getting used to his kisses and likes to bark to get attention. I am falling in love with each of them- its always hard to think they will be going home in less than 3 short weeks (well - most of them)..LOL!
Bunny aka LILLY and her new family (Mary Jo, Emma and Abby) drove all the way from Virginia to meet her...

Thank you Mary Jo for the tulips- we love them!

Bobby made his new family, the Smiths, fall instantly in love with him from the minute they met.

Gloria and Phil were happy to finally meet little Buck!
