Not everyone has a supportive spouse and I don’t take for granted that my hubby works his busy FT job and then assists me in all kinds of ways with my dogs and puppies.
So these photos were taken when I did puppy pictures the other day and i wanted to share them – you can see the puppies are just as in love with him as they are with me.
Thank you Steve for being the best “behind the scenes” partner I could ever have.
6 weeks old and raring to explore the world. They want to play outside more and more, and thankfully the spring in the PNW is allowing it to happen most days.
They are starting to sleep in a crate by themselves – it’s a big step in being ready to go to their new home.
We are going to try and narrow down picks this week.
5 weeks is such a fun age – they are still little and awkward but they are also getting more adventurous.
We introduced them to the pack this week and they LOVE the bigger dogs. I am grateful for little ones that are just enjoying growing up in every way possible.
It has 4 weeks since these beautiful beagle puppies were born and they are confident on their feet. Today I decided, since it was sunny outside, that I would attempt to take photos of them outside.
They were very busy sniffing and walking around so the photos arent the best, but you can see they are growing.
and yes, I did trim nails right after this 🙂 LOL.
Violet’s little ones tried puppy mush for the first time today and LOVED it – they licked and chomped in and had so much fun. I was very impressed at how quickly they changed from trying to suck it to licking it which is a bit of a skill change.
Now that their eyes are open, I love watching these sweet babies begin to move around and fall over. They love sleeping on their backs with their little bellies in the air, and are starting to growl and play with each other.
Enjoy this week’s photos of our Valentines lovies – this week they will try their new puppy pen with potty box, and mushy food. I can’t wait.
This was a big week for the little beagle puppies as they opened their eyes and are starting to explore their world. I love this stage where they are trying to toddle around on legs that don’t quite work.
Violet continues to do an amazing job and Dolly (from Joyful Noise beagles) couldn’t be happier.
Violet is a great mom and is keeping them clean and very well fed – we like chunky babies. So now is the time to introduce our sweet babies one by one to the world.
PICKLES (Kazuri’s Gonna Be A Big Dill) garnered her 2nd and 3rd majors from the puppy classes, in only 2 weekends of showing, for a total of 12 points, I am guessing she will be finished before we know it.
On Saturday, she went WB/BOW/BOS over a special for a 5 point major under judge Erika N Wyatt.
On Sunday she went WB for a 3 point major under judge Ms Marilyn L Van Vleit.
Pickles was bred by Sarah Sweetman and is co-owned/loved by herself and Sarah Smith-Falkner.
