Look How Ruska’s Puppies Have Grown…….It’s Amazing !

This past week our puppies started heading to their forever homes. Yesterday our last puppy from Ruska and Tulo’s litter, Blue Collar Boy, went home with his forever family. It was a busy time preparing the puppies to go home. They had their nails trimmed, bath, and blow dry. Some of the puppies were so calm and behaved, while others were trying to make their escape. We snapped a memory photo of each puppy after they were ready. All in all, they did well and our puppies looked amazing!!!

Ruska and Tulo’s 2020 Litter

I have spent the past nine weeks loving, caring and teaching our puppies. It is now up to their forever families to continue.

Continue to provide new experiences each day, always include play, and never stop training your puppy. It won’t be easy because they are still young but, with patience and consistency on your part, they will grow to become well-behaved adult dogs that you will enjoy for their lifetime. I am so thankful that our puppies have joined amazing families and know each of our puppies will be loved and have a wonderful life!

Keep in touch ….. it makes my day when I receive an e-mail from one of our puppies families. I love hearing how they are doing and seeing pictures them as they grow ! I came across this poem (below) and felt it describes exactly how I feel!

Please Don’t Forget Your Breeder
 
I knew from day one not every puppy could stay
Preparing them for life took many hours of each day
 
I loved every minute watching them develop and thrive
Helping them discover the world fills me with pride
 
The weeks were numbered, never enough time
I worry, even though I know the puppies will be fine
 
I trust you with this puppy and hope you understand
I hand-picked you, and know you’ll follow the plan
 
Continue to provide new experiences each day
Never stop training your puppy, and always include play
 
I will never forget my puppies and will always be here
Please provide them the best for the rest of their years
 
No matter how long-ago your baby was here
Not staying in touch is my biggest fear

Ellie’s Puppies

Ellie’s five puppies are waiting in the crate together while I clean out their puppy enclosure

Ellie’s puppies are continuing to learn from each other and their Mama, Brinkley, Ruska and even Willow. Nipping is still a challenge but we continue to discourage this behaviour. The puppies are eating their dry kibble well and are always so excited when meal time arrives and they see their food coming. The puppies love spending their days running, playing and exploring in the yard outside. Today it started raining so we had to cut our outdoor play short and bring the puppies inside.

VIDEO – It was raining today so, Ellie’s puppies had to have indoor playtime. They are playing with a new toy – a water bottle. LOL

Soon it will be time to say goodbye to Ellie’s puppies. I will miss each of them dearly but I am so happy that our puppies are joining such wonderful families. I know they will be loved!
