Talk about a puppy pile...




And Kya's not about to miss out on the snuggle! One would think Kya went to school and graduated with top honors to learn how to be such a good mom. She has this innate sense of when to care for the pups, yet not smother them with unnecessary attention.... but right now she's just enjoying her babies and stealing all the puppybreath.LOL







The pups are just reaching the "adorable stage", before they turn into climbing, biting monsters. They now recognise Chris' voice when she talks to them and will crawl over to the front of the whelping box for a human cuddle.

Who's that girl?

It's the Outlaw Josie Whales now sporting a black collar! She absolutely will not keep her pink collar on, so we're trying black... a girl can not run around the whelping box naked, it's just not appropriate.LOL

First Photo Shoot


Oh my gosh... who would have known a photo shoot with 2-1/2 week old pups would be a lesson in patience!


Sure, they're moving around the whelping box, can find their mom with unerring accuracy, but WOW; just try snapping a button faster than they can move.LOL


Miss Yellow thought the whole thing was hilarious and couldn't stop laughing. Miss Pink and Mr Blue spent all of their time investigating the floor below and couldn't be bothered with cameras and such. Miss Multi-Pink found her Grammy Chris much more interesting, after all, she had cream cheese... what was she thinking? Mr Orange and Miss Purple exhausted themselves (and their grammy) checking out every square inch of their new territory, so by the time they were ready to hold still all they could do way lay down and barely keep their eyes open. Only Mr Green posed very nicely like a true gentleman... but what else would you expect out of "The Duke"!

Look Who's Walking


It's The Outlaw Josie Whales!! Miss Hot Pink (for now)... you may very well see pictures of her sporting a black collar soon. This little cutie has not made up her mind what color collar she wants to be, so usually can be found naked in the whelping box. She started as Pink, kept taking that off, so we put Red on her... that didn't work, so back to Hot Pink... nope, she still somehow gets it off. Chris says Black is next.LOL

Who Done It?



Early housebreaking habits begin as soon as the pups eyes open, as they will instinctively move off their bedding onto the paper to keep their sleeping area clean. Nurturing these these early responses will make the overall housebreaking process go much faster... which means happier owners!

Pretty Girl


Kya continues to enjoy her pups as much as we do. She is very calm and content while nursing and has even divided the troops into two separate feedings so everyone can get their share without pushing or shoving. Quite often when the pups are sleeping, Kya can be found lazing on Chris' bed watching her charges without disturbing them.

Bio Sensor Time

The U.S. Military developed a program in the 1970’s called "Bio Sensor." The program was developed to improve the performance of dogs used for military purposes. The Army’s research revealed that early stimulation of the puppy from the 3rd day through the 16th day influence rapid neurological growth and development.

You can read the details on our puppy page of the website.
