The puppies are enjoying the beautiful weather outside -- and each other! They playing Tug of War with a leafy branch. Go figure! They have plenty of expensive chew tussle toys -- yet their favorite is a simple branch of non-toxic leaves from our garden. Of our nine precious puppies, six went to their new homes yesterday. The remaining three are having fun bonding with each other while they still can!

While it was an exciting challenge taking all nine puppies to the Vet for their first round of puppy shots, they each received an excellent bill of health had no reactions to their shots. They also received their microchipping through AKC ReUnite. What a great day for the puppies!

We are celebrating this morning! ALL of the puppies either urinated on their training pads (which is kept separate from their sleeping area through a little doggy door) or held it until we took them outside at 6:30 this morning to go to the bathroom. Woo Hoo! We are so proud of them!

The puppies enjoyed romping around in the grass today...they discovered leaves, flowers, and the smell of the outdoors. What an exhilarating time with all nine puppies!
