Today is the day Nao Nao (Brown boy) goes to his new home. My daughter has always said he is my favorite. He is pretty special.
I’m saying good-bye to my sweet, independent boy.
Sunny and Stuart are so excited to be Nao Nao’s new family.

The puppies are almost 14 weeks old. These three are still living with me. They are at such a fun age!
Gray is growing like a weed. He loves his food.
Favor (peach girl) likes to play, but she likes to be cuddled, too.
I got Nao Nao (brown boy) up from a nap. Obviously, he’d rather be sleeping!

Today is the day Jennifer and her sister came to choose between Brown and Blue Boys. She has had her eye on Blue Boy since pictures were first posted, 11 weeks ago.
Bridger gets to live with his three-year old uncle, Brinkley. He loves to play and this is a good fit.

Blue and Brown boys are having a wonderful time running through the living room. This was taken before they discovered the joys of chewing the Christmas tree. One of these boys will go to his new home tomorrow.
Boys just want to have fun!

Today was the official day the pups were evaluated. There were lots of friends here and the puppies had a wonderful day!
Pink girl will be going to Canada to begin her career as a show girl
Peach girl will stay here.
Turquoise Girl will go to live with her Grandmother and half-sister on Vancouver Island. Show girl? She looks like she is pondering that possibility.
Gray Boy “scored” very well on his evaluation..
Blue Boy – does his tail every stop wagging? Happy, happy boy!
Brown Boy – He was too tired to stand, so he is sitting and looks like he’d like to lie down and have a nap.

It’s been a while since Junebug has made an appearance on the blog. At 5 1/2 months, she is too young to enter a dog show, but this weekend she got to hang out and observe all the activity at a show. Having her pal Fiona along made her time extra fun. They shredded paper and then had a tug of war over the big pieces. Both are learning tricks and they got to practice on those. Junebug plans to add to her “resume” by getting a trick dog title.

We took a look at the girls, trying to decide if they are show quality. Conclusion is that all are nice and good prospects for the show ring. I cut their hair very short to get a good look at their body conformation. We attempted to “stack” them on the table, as they will have to do that for showing. I think they did quite well for being as young as they are.
Pink Girl. “Just give me the cheese and I’ll stand pretty!”
Peach Girl. “You want me to stand still?”
Turquoise Girl. “O.K., I’ll stand here, but after the picture I’m going back to sit on my step.”

Official pictures didn’t fit into the schedule this week. I did capture a few candids and should have some nice pictures this Saturday, with the help of some friends.
Playing hard – napping hard. Brown Boy is totally relaxed.
Turquoise Girl was one of the first pups to climb up the one stair that is available to them. But she is always reluctant to get down. I’m trying to teach her how to do it, but she is content to stay on “her” step and survey the world.
Peach Girl and her sister Pink were fighting and Andrea rescued Peach. Pretty cute!
The puppies had their 8 week vaccinations and health check up. All are healthy. They were pretty relaxed at the vet’s. Blue Boy just stayed in his crate and had a nap until it was his turn. The pups were all brave.
