Rex's pack

Here’s a couple of pictures of Rex (Orange) Kobi, and Cassie.  He weighed in at 23 lbs last Tuesday getting his booster vaccine.  He’s a very smart puppy learning from his other house mates quickly.  He’s healthy, playful, and full of personality.  We are enjoying him a bunch. ~Chad & Paulyn

Pictures of Katie

Here are some pictures that were taken in june. I will send more up to date pictures in the next couple weeks. Cheryl fell and broke her hip last week. As you can tell from this that things are very busy at the moment. I took Katie to the vet's this week and she is 16 inches at the shoulder and weighs 23.2 lbs She has learned to sit,shake and stay, thanks ~ Mike

Ranger's happy voice

We actually heard his "voice" tonite. Kind of a howl. I don't know, maybe a sad howl for you guys? Does the howl mean something particular? He just did it once. But he settled down into his bed. He is asleep now :). I had to put Sids bed next to him. So they would not argue over whose bed was whose! They are my cute "boys"! ~Becky

Ranger's New Adventure

Ranger moved into his new home tonight. He's now living with an approximatly 25lb cutie named Sid. Here's a note from his new mom: Hi Debbie, well we came inside and Ranger and Sid are getting acquainted! Sid is initiating play! That is not his usual behavior with dogs. So that is good news. Sid is pretty happy. Ranger is looking for you :( but he is getting loved on and he will be ok. He is still wagging his tail! I will keep you posted! Take care new friends! ~Becky

Fun day for JR

Short video of JR running through the field near our house. He also recently took to swimming. Tina

Looking good in Canada

I've attached a few "stacked" pictures. I'll use the term lightly heehee. I had no idea how hard they are to take with puppies! We must have taken a 100 photos before we had a few we were relatively happy with. She looks like a rocking horse in the one lol. We are starting handling classes August 1st so hopefully they will improve after that. Can't believe they are almost 3 months! She is maturing more and more everyday. If only she could master the housetraining thing lol! Talk soon, Amy

Black Diamond Mint Julep ~ 12 Weeks old

Zoey at 12 weeks of age

Zoey is Black Diamond Front Runner - my pick of the litter. She looks and acts SOOO much like her mom Jazz, I couldn't resist keeping her! She has more spots than I like, but I LOVE everything else about her.

Terrible day for Waverley

Waverley is doing great. We started puppy kindergarten on Wednesday and she was a pro. She is a saucy girl and doesn't like sitting still, but is catching on to commands and the house training thing. She already sleeps through the night and is fitting in with the pack here. Her favorite friend is my Sphynx cat Peach. They wrestle on the floor and chase each other around the living room. We had a couple of bumps earlier in the week. While out for a walk she was ran over by my other dog and started limping. I crated her for the night, but when it wasn't better by the next morning I brought her into my work to see if they'd want to do an xray. The vet moved her leg through it's full range of motion and said it's most likely she just brusied her shoulder. Thank goodness, I felt sick to my stomach bringing her in but didn't want to do the whole "wait and see" thing I would normally do with my other dogs. Since we were there anyways, and got the go ahead, I had her vaccinated. Unfortunately she ended up having a vaccine reaction and her left hip ended up swelling with a bump the size of a large egg and was very sore. Poor girl had a terrible day. Luckily puppies bounce back and she is 99% back to normal already. We will split up her last set of vaccines, pre-treat with benedryl and hopefully avoid another reaction. Never a dull moment around here!

JR and his girls

Here are some pictures of JR with our youngest, Lucy and my niece, Emily. ~ Tina

JR Update

JR is continuing to do very well! We started a dog training class last night and he did quite well. We are working with him daily. Today he got to go to the dog park and meet one of his new girl friends, a 10 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback. They ran around and got pretty worn out. We are working hard on socializing him with other dogs. He is doing quite well when they are off leash. It is a bit more of a challenge on leash. The dog class should help.  I will send a picture of him soon. ~Tina
