Beagle puppies are 6 weeks ~ Woodinville Seattle AKC

The beagle babies are 6 weeks today – I can hardly believe we have known these little (orI guess now big) babies for 1 1/2 months.

They are spending more and more supervised time outdoors – they live to play and explore (and chew sticks).   They have mastered going up and down stairs – i am constantly amazed at how fast they are – there is no where in our house they haven’t explored now 🙂

Maddy is too kind to wean herself, so i designed a nipple-hider for her so she can play with them without them nursing.  It seems to be doing the trick 🙂

Enjoy the latest pictures – they are candids taken in the yard this morning 🙂

Beagle puppies are 4 weeks ~ Woodinville Seattle AKC

Today the wee babies turned 4 weeks – a month sure has flown by so fast!

The beagle babies are growing still – their new skills include walking, jumping (and flopping) and wrestling. They have started solids and are starting to wean off Maddy, sleeping 10 hours alone through the night (with not a peep). They are also consistently going poop in the litterbox so that is great for cleanup 🙂

Their latest pictures are here – i think this will be the last set I can do on my own as they are so fast and dont want to stay in one place at all – I’m going to try and recruit my kids to help next week.

Enjoy them xo

MRI Health Testing on Arrow ~ the results are in

As you know, health testing is just as important to me (as a breeder) as beauty and temperament.  I take my job as a breeder seriously, and I believe that if I am going to add dogs to the world, I want it to be done so with careful thought.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels can have issues with SM (Syringomyelia) in their brain.   The only way to detect it is with a MRI.  So Alisha and I decided that we wanted to scan Arrow before we bred her.    We flew her up to the amazing team at Thames Valley Veterinary Services in Ontario Canada.

I am so glad we did – no SM was detected in her brain at all – what a wonderful health clearance we have!!!   Now, on to breeding her 🙂

Puppies are here

With nothing really happening last night, we decided to go to bed.  I got up every 2 hours to check on her.  While restless, nothing much was happening.

This morning, she woke me up around 6am, and wouldn’t let me out of her sight.  Around 8:45 she started pushing and by 8:58 we had our first baby born safe and sound.  10.2 oz baby girl.

After a quick rest, she gave birth to another girl at 9:31 – this one was a little bigger at 10.9oz.

She rested again and with no assistance whelped her first son – all 11.4 oz of him, at 10:15.

Her fourth and final baby was born at 11:16 – another little boy – 10.9oz.    Yep – 4 puppies in 2 hours and 18 minutes – what a rockstar!

Maddy is a natural momma and she and the pups are dong so well already.  I have to resist the urge to go and pick them up all the time.

I am very excited to see them grow up 🙂

D-Day has arrived – Puppies are on the way

One of the first signs that whelping is imminent is to have a sudden drop in temperature.  I temperature check morning and night from day 58.  I dont want any surprise deliveries.

Maddy’s temperature dropped this morning – she is hanging out with me and in her puppy pen.  Although when I locked her in there, this was her face.  Mommy’s girl do you think?  Ha!

Cant wait to make the announcement of their safe arrival sometime soon 🙂

Watching…waiting….a watched pot never boils over right?

She’s sleeping a lot right now and we are glad to let her do it.  The puppies are all well formed and now just waiting for the right time to be born.  Today marks day 60 since ovation or 59 days since her first breeding.  Dogs can whelp from day 58 – 64 so we are confident there will be puppies sometime this week.

We are taking Maddy’s temperature daily – when it drops from 99 – 101 to below 98 we know that there will be babies on the way soon.

I’ll be in touch with the happy news 🙂

Beagle Puppies are on the way

We here at Kazuri are excited to announce the upcoming litter of Maddy and Slugger.  This is a line breeding and includes some gorgeous dogs on both sides.  I am excited to see what these two produce.

Puppy Sitting

Its been over a year and a half since we had a litter of puppies so when Alisha from Lockestar Cavaliers contacted me about socializing her recent litter, we jumped at the chance.  These puppies’ mom is Arrow’s sister Penny.

Baylea, Kinzie and Dollar were a little timid at first but it didn’t take them long to get used to the “small humans” in our home 🙂

What fun to have these little puppies in our home for the week!
