Pupdates 07/28/14

Got some new pics of pups in their new homes. Everyone looks like they're doing great!

First up, we have Omar (HT Oh Henry) and Kima (HT Skittles):

The Cool-a-roo bed - also known as the puppy fort!

Playing with a branch they 'found' (had reportedly just pulled off the bush...no, not our precious angels...they'd never do such a thing).

Omar launching off the bed with the prized branch.

Relaxing in their ex-pen.

And how about True (HT Gummi Bear) getting so big and long like a grown up whippet!

New pics coming soon (if we can catch them!) of the OTC 3's. They've gotten to spend a ton of time outside these past few days with the nice weather we've had up here in the foothills.

Pupdates! 07/25/14

Latest & greatest pics:

First off, we have Chewy in his new home - really hating our heat wave! We've noticed that in spite of being a summer group, all of these pups really dislike being hot!

"Uuuuuggghhh. It's so hot!"

The afternoon monsoons brought along a rainbow, though!

Momma Spicy and 5 of her pups on their cot on the deck.

(Twizzler, Twix, Patty, Rolo, and Clark)

Chiclets, Clark, and aunt Lizzie.

Trinity's playing 'where's waldo' in this one!

She was very insistent that she should be in the picture with the little puppies.

All seven! JuJu and Twix in back, then Twizzler and Clark in the middle, Rolo and Zipper up front and Miss Peppermint Patty asleep underneath!

Rolo and his hang-dog sis, Zipper.

"One of these things is not like the others..."

Dots jumped right in the middle of things.

Moon Pie wisely chooses an empty bed to avoid the chaos Dots is creating on the other one.

Pupdates - pups in their new homes...07/21/14

Several of the OTC 1 & 2's have headed off to their new homes and some great pics and updates are starting to come through.

Plus, we've got some great birthday pics of some of our 'Shaken, Not Stirred' puppies, who celebrated their second birthday on July 5th, and a great past pup pic from the 'The Matrix' litter.

"Waffle" (HT Hot Toddy) celebrates turning 2!

"Rowan" (HT Stoli on the Rocks) looking regal for his 2nd birthday portrait.

"Fossey" (HT Pixie Stix) and "Newton" (HT Zagnut) snuggling in after their first afternoon in their new home.

"Luigi" (HT Morpheus of Zion) on the left with his buddy Mario.

"Heath" (HT Heath Bar) and "True" (HT Gummi Bear) patrolling the perimeter.

"Kima" (HT Skittles) and "Omar" (HT Oh Henry)

Sad News 07/16/14

We are heartbroken to report that Winston, our sweet puppy from the Pulp Fiction litter, who was lovingly adopted by Barbara (Jennifer's mom) passed away unexpectedly this morning.

During the 9 months and 10 days that he graced all of our lives, he was one of the most joyful souls we have ever known.

He will be missed beyond measure.

Pupdate 07/14/14 pt. 2

We had a gully-washer of a thunderstorm this afternoon, but the pups couldn't wait to get right back outside when it was done...to go play in the mud puddles!

Gummi was our camera shy kiddo this afternoon, so Ken made a point to get some good shots of him at the end of the photo shoot.

Dots & Heath

Oh Henry...after a good playtime in the mud!

Dots - doing her 'bulldog puppy' impersonation.

Chiclets....and drip.

Pupdate 07/14/14 pt. 1

Just poppin' in with a bunch more pics of the OTC 1 - 2 - 3 puppies! Ken gets all the credit for the photography. He's got a much better eye for it than I do.

Caption to come once all the pics are posted...

Enjoy:
