Madison’s puppies are really starting to look and act like real puppies. They are playing with Vixen’s puppies – they of course get beaten up, but it’s making them tough too 🙂 LOL. They are almost weaned – not because they want to be – ha!
They are sweet and confident – they are getting good at going up 2 – 3 stairs at a time thanks to the little ladder and slide they play on and love playing in the garden. I love snuggling them so much.
Enjoy the photos of them from this week <3
It’s hard to believe that Vixen’s puppies are old enough to fly the coup. Oh my gosh. I am just so glad that a couple of them are spending a couple of extra weeks here as their families cant pick them up yet, and so I get a few more weeks of snuggles – WHEW!
Eve’s new name is Echo (purple collar) – she is bold and bright and full of energy. But she also wants to be with people and is super friendly. She is going to live with the Sheppard family and will be shown in conformation and 4H. Noelle (yellow collar) is laid back and quiet, although definitely not a push over – she loves to be snuggled and nestles into your neck. She is going to live as a pet with the Banks family. Kris (black collar) is outgoing and friendly – he is my daughter’s favorite puppy and she will be sad to see him go. He has found the perfect home with L Blank and her boyfriend and he has already settled in perfectly. Nick (blue collar) may be a 13 inch and is my little shadow – he watches me intently and I think he is super smart. I am hoping we will show him and he will be part of our breeding program if he continues to grow in the way he is right now. Holly (pink collar) is super sweet, and has enough spice to be fun and playful but melts into your arms when you pick her up. She has gone to the loving home with the Langan’s and I am pleased to know we will see her in the show ring next Summer.
Enjoy the latest pictures of them playing around our yard. <3
Today everyone went out for a romp in the sunshine and so I took photos. I decided I like the candid’s this week, and so that’s what I will post. I will post who is who in the picture descriptions. 🙂 Just in case you cant tell who they are.
Vixen’s litter have got collars on – since they are nearing the time they will go to their new homes, they are practicing the skills they will need for that like having a collar on, and climbing multiple stairs, and sleeping in a crate alone. I find these things help with the transition to the new family. <3
I have a female available to a “guardian home”. This is a special home that will allow me to show her and then have a couple of litters when she has come of age and finished her health testing. This kind of home has to be in the Seattle area. If you are interested in learning more about this, or finding out more please email me sarah.sweetman@outlook.com
Maddy’s pups are 3 weeks today. They are big healthy chunky monkeys. They had their first taste of puppy mush today and they LOVED it – I will post pictures of that later. 🙂
They got a litterbox today also – they will start to learn how to use it over the coming weeks just as our previous litters have.
Enjoy the latest pictures of the babies

Thank you for your interest in my dogs. At this stage, all of my beagle puppies are sold. I have a current waiting list that may mean you have to wait till 2020 for a puppy to become available. If you are okay with waiting, please get in touch with me – sarah.sweetman@outook.com. Please see my FAQ page for any questions you might have. thank you. <3
I am a little late for the 2 weeks post for Maddy’s babies. It has been a busy week and so I brought them with me to a shoot at my studio this morning.
All of the babies eyes are open and they are getting so strong as they move around the whelping pen. I can see that I will need to set up the potty box in the next week or so for them too.
Enjoy these latest pictures of my squishy babies – they are growing way to fast for my heart. <3

Vixen’s puppies are 5 weeks old and I decided to do their photos outdoors – despite their hour long playtime, they were still not interested in sitting still for pictures – hahaha! And who can blame them when there is a whole big world to explore?
They are on 3 solid meals a day. They sleep alone and are almost weaned. I cant believe they are growing up so quickly.
Holly. She is sweet and gentle. The smallest of the litter, however not to be overlooked – she has spark for sure and wont be pushed around by her siblings.
Eve – my nickname for her is “spicy” – she is the first to wake up and come over when I call them for food and always is in the mix of everything. She is busy and bold and vocal about wanting snuggles.
Noelle – She is the most laid back of the girls – she is a quiet observer and the best sleeper. But always up for a game or a romp with her siblings once things get started.
Kris – he is the bolder of the two boys – very vocal about wanting snuggles and time to explore outside the puppy pen. He loves to be out with the family and is a shadow – always a little busy man.
Nick – he is a snuggly boy who is happy go lucky. He is always happy to play, or explore – whatever the others are doing, he is happy to do too. Just dont pin him down – not keen to stop if he is not in the mood yet.

It was such a glorious day today, we decided to take the beagle puppies outside for some fun in the sunshine. They weren’t sure of the grass on their toes for about 10 seconds and then they loved it.
Phoenix is their favorite “big sister” and the feeling is mutual – any opportunity she can to play with them, she takes it. So, they all wrestled and enjoyed time in the sun today together. <3 We didnt want to risk the eagles today by giving them the run of the whole yard.
Madison’s pups are going from strength to strength and I am so happy that they are chubby and thriving. This week I expect that they will open their eyes and start to become a little more interactive.
It was my daughter’s turn to come up with a litter theme – she chose some of her favorite Youtuber’s who make AnimalJam video’s for their names. We dont actually call them these names – they are just how we identify them for the blog. As far as they are concerned, their names are “puppy” till they go to their forever home.
Please dont mind the darker photos – we decided to take these as the light was fading – I like to use natural light so the baby’s eyes dont get affected, but of course that means that when the light went, it really went 🙂
So, without further ado, introducing :
Gelly (after GellyJones) Now lb 3.4oz (was 10.3 at birth)
Cottonzz – now 1lb 3.3oz (was 9.3oz at birth)
Bepper – now 1lb 2.9oz (was 9.5oz at birth)
Wistor (after Wistoriamoon) – now 1lb 6.6oz (was 10oz at birth)
Apparri – now 1lb 4.1oz (was 10.5oz at birth) – the only boy)
Vixen’s puppies are growing up fast – they are enjoying the play pen more and more. I introduced the mini slide this week and they mastered it quickly and play “king of the hill” on the top. I also added a tunnel for them to run through – they love it and as I type several have fallen asleep inside of it 🙂
They are all getting closer to 3lbs. It’s hard to believe that a couple of weeks ago they were barely 1/2 a lb.
Enjoy this week’s pictures – they were a little busy for pictures this week – LOL. But I did my best 🙂 You can see my hubby’s hands in a couple of photos – he was a wonderful puppy wrangler for me 🙂

Since it was so touch and go after birth, I am happy to announce that it seems we are out of the woods now – the babies are all thriving and putting on weight and I think they will all make it. The vets said that if they made it through day 3, they would be okay.
So, I took more photos today 🙂 The first 8 photos are the four girls and then the last 2 photos are the boy. <3
