Red girl on the left, Blue girl on the right in their favorite puppy bed.  During the day the “girls” have moved out into a larger area for more stimulation and to get used to being around the “big” dogs (and the “big” dogs are very curious about the pups and the pups wag their tails and go nose to nose with the “big” dogs).Both “girls” are growing rapidly–both weighing over 2 pounds now–active, curious about everything–and just being sweet puppies.  Sydney continues to be a good mother–and since I’m trying to wean the pups from Sydney, she is almost being too good of a mother–they would rather nurse than eat puppy food!

Violet is the puppy who loves to snuggle. She is often found next to her mother, Flo-Jo. She also likes to give hugs to her human family.

The girls are 5 months old.  They are such good puppies!

They had a bath, but I can tell they are in need of a haircut.

Violet is the puppy who loves to snuggle. She likes to lay her head on your shoulder and settle in for some hugs.

Mitzi is hoping she’ll look so cute that I’ll give her part of my dinner. (I will admit she got a bite!)

“Curious”, “fearless”, perhaps “mischievous”, are words that describe our Oliver. We love his personality!

It's so difficult to get the puppies to pose for a picture.  They are many more exciting things in their lives.  String cheese helps.  here's Mitzi, looking for that cheese.

Oliver thinks that cheese is pretty tasty!

And here’s Oliver, enjoying the cheese!

Not only does Violet get to live with my daughter, she gets to live with her mother, Flo-Jo. Here she is in her new home snuggling with Mommy.

Violet has left for her new home.  She’ll be living with my daughter and will be shown in conformation.  It will be nice to have her close!
