Sister, rivals, friends!

These two are something else! Raising two litter mates and both females is not highly recommended. Since mama Zoey was retiring, I was hoping to get at least one daughter to keep and take her place here. Zoey surprised me with three beautiful girls! I decided to keep these two and place the littlest one in a wonderful pet home.

So double trouble is what I've kept for myself! I've never had two puppies that make so much noise wrestling, growling and fighting with each other! Granted they do have their down times, but they are very active and vocal! (I can hear them behind me scraping in their Iris pen as I write this.) I haven't figured out if they both want to be "boss" or if one is always top dog picking on the other. I have a feeling it's the first one. ;)

You'd never know it by this picture though. Look at the little "angels".

Delivery day!

Just had to share a few pictures of delivery day! This one worked out great as all three families were able to meet me and pick up their pups on the same day.

I always enjoy meeting the families in person and presenting them with their long awaited new furry, family members. Some have waited a long time and some not so long, but all are excited and happy to receive their new baby. Some come from quite a distance and some are local. Of these three families one lives locally, one came from the coast and the other drove from another state to meet me that day!

First little Missy went home. She is going to live with another Pinewood pup, who is also her half brother! Her mom is expecting a baby (human) and her dad had to work so her new "grandparents" were nice enough to drive over and pick her up! Here is a quick note from her new mom; "Molly (her new name) is absolutely precious and we are so happy! Thank you! My parents now want a little cavalier puppy after picking her up. It's hard not to fall in love with them. :)"

Right after little Missy (Molly) left, Kris' mom drove up. She had been wanting a tri-color male Cavalier for a long time and after little Kris (now Cooper) was born the timing was just right! He has two big "siblings" at home, another Cavalier and an older Lab. Hopefully, he won't torment them too much!
She wrote to let me know they got home ok:
"We made it home OK.
Cooper is quite the pup, happy and wiggly and very vocal.
He is happy to be out of the car!
He seems to like his iris pen.
Ruby(Cavalier) has been steering clear cause he pulls her ears.
Hershey (lab) doesn’t know what to think yet."
Then I got another update this morning: "
"Little stinker indeed! He is Baxter(her old dog that just passed) reincarnated. Cooper has a new nickname, “charlie dickens”
He got that one by using his paw to flip over his food bowl and scatter kibble everywhere.....LOL
Hershey likes when he does that!
He finally started eating today, drinking more water.
He ended up sleeping with the pack on the bed last nite, and did really well, and even had his head on Hershey’s back.
I just love him to death.
Thank you so much!"
 
Not to long after Kris (Cooper) left, it was time for Nicholas to be picked up. Nicholas' family as been waiting for months for him! The family has two teenagers that have been wanting a dog for a long time. They decided that the time had finally had come. They were so excited to pick him up! Can't you just see it on her face?! :) And I love this picture of Nick with his little head tilted!
Wishing our Pinewood pups long, happy lives with their new families!

Why taking puppy pictures is not easy (but is rewarding)

Fact #1~Puppies are cute, soft, sweet and adorable.

Fact #2~Puppies rarely sit still for pictures.

I guess my main "complaint" about taking puppy pictures is not having a camera fast enough to catch them!
Let me present some evidence why taking puppy pictures is not easy.


But when you get one of these....."Ahhhhh" pictures it's all worth it!
