Two pups go home!

So, time has flown and two pups left today and one more goes tomorrow! How did that happen so fast!

Of course, there is some prep work before they leave--a little trim, the nails clipped and the BATH!

Here are the two families with their pups--the boy with Frosty is 11 and has wanted a pup since he was a very small child--he was one happy kid!

Saffron (now Sophie) was the first to go, so she got the spa treatment the day before-

They are all nice and fluffy when they dry--here are Saffron and Frosty who is now Frodo and left a few hours later, after...

Comment by Becka on April 1, 2013 at 6:25am: I love the name Frodo and I love how happy that little boy was to be getting his dog!

Comment by Marnie, Stanlee's Mom on April 1, 2013 at 5:48am: I'm a little sad that Frodo didn't come to me but if he had to go somewhere else, looks like he got the perfect family. I agree, Laurie, it seems like the pups were just born a couple of weeks ago.....time sure did fly!

Comment by Ginny Nightingale on March 31, 2013 at 8:07pm: I am amazed at the reports I am getting--no accidents! The puppies have all been crying when they have to go---when they can't find the paper in the tray, they cry and out the door they go! This new system I am using seems to really work--the paper they have been going potty on is in a big tray (a rabbit cage tray) and there are pine pellets underneath the paper to absorb the moisture. The pellets are on top of a big disposable pad that you buy to put on a bed (for incontinence). The pups all learned quickly to go into the tray to go potty and it seems like that has given them more of a need to go either in a tray or outside. Before with newspaper alone, they would often miss the paper and go on the floor--but these guys rarely missed the tray. So, maybe the housebreaking will be easier--I sure hope so, since two of these pups will be her for a while and I need to housebreak them!

Comment by Donna K & Quincy on March 31, 2013 at 5:26pm: Ginny, I'm kind of sad to see the puppies go, I really enjoy your pics. The new families do look really happy with their new little bundles. I hope we get to see them again. :>)

Comment by Ginny Nightingale on March 31, 2013 at 4:55pm: PS--Little Saffron (now Sophie) had only 1 accident her first day in her new home--she whines at the door to go out! And slept well in her crate from the beginning--hooo-ray!! Of course, it is the "honeymoon" period--next week, they will be wondering why they got a puppy.....

Comment by Ginny Nightingale on March 31, 2013 at 4:54pm: One more exit today--Lucky is now Cooper and is having a great first night with his new family. Janet and Ed have had many dogs over the years, but this is their first doodle--they are in for a treat! And they live just 10 minutes away, so Lucky, now Cooper, and I will be seeing each other again! YEAH!

Comment by Cathy, Fozzie & Shaggy on March 31, 2013 at 2:39pm: The families look so happy and the pups are beautiful!

Comment by F, Calla & Luca on March 31, 2013 at 7:36am: It is bittersweet but since you may be breeding doodles yourself one day this may not be the last litter.
