Aaaaah. It’s puppy time again! I love puppies. Mattie and Auto had a litter on Jan 1st and the pups are ready to go! They’re getting cuter by the day, and we love playing with them! They’ve been wormed and they’ll have their first shots before they go. We’ve also started crate training them at [...]

Hello fellow dog-lovers! This has been a rather uneventful but still interesting week. The puppies have their eyes open and are learning to crawl around quite a bit. They are growing fast and becoming ever more adorable! They were whelped in the house but they’ve been moved outside now. Honey seems glad for the extra [...]

Nothing spectacular has happened, which means that plenty of small things have. Certainly they are still things worthy of note, however. And so here you are. Honey is showing!

We work on obedience training first: things like sit, stay, down, come, etc. This gets them in shape for the 4-H [...]

The puppies are growing quickly! They are four weeks old now, and they are starting to find their legs. They’ve begun walking all over the kennel and even playing with each other. They’re beginning to show their personalities – mimicking the adult dogs by wrestling and using kanine body language. Of the eleven puppies, there [...]

Hello fellow dog-lovers. I’m back with a doggy-slobbered chin to give you an update from the kennel. Ringo, a black lab, came for training a little over a month ago and proved to be a constantly energetic addition. He was always on the go, at the end of  a month he’d learned enough to curb [...]
