Two Litters at Home

We have fifteen puppies at our home right now.  Scarlett and Seeker's eight puppies that are five weeks old, and Meggie and Seeker's puppies that are ten days old.

Scarlett's puppies are between four and six pounds and are running, playing, and very personable.  They are in a pen in our new puppy room that allows them to get used to a crate and to use the potty park (artificial grass in a plastic tray to teach them where to potty and to get them used to a grass texture) as well as a play area.

  

They are also outside in the puppy run for a chunk of the day to give them a place to explore and play so that they do not get bored.  

 

We recently took them all to Home Depot to get them used to car rides (many more coming) and to new sites, sounds, smells, and people.  We took them into the store two at a time (two people each carrying one puppy) and we never made it past the front door.  The staff wanted to hold, love, and pet each puppy.  

  The people entering the store wanted to stop and love on the puppies.  The puppies were superstars and enjoyed all the attention.  In three weeks they will be starting to go to their new homes!  All of you who have bought one of these dogs will need to talk with me about how you want to pick them up, or how you want us to get them to you.  

 Meggie's puppies are only ten days old and their eyes and ears are not yet open.  They stay in the whelping pen where we have kept them since birth.  

They have already had a car ride (they were born either at the guardian home or en route back to our house as my boys picked them up) but since their first ride they have been in our home.  This weekend their their eyes and ears  will open and after a few days we will move them down to the puppy room.  Shortly after they move down the older puppies will be making their way to their new homes!  

We are already giving the older puppies their medicine to de-worm them.  Soon they will get their first round of shots.  Those who will be spayed or neutered will have their appointment at about seven weeks.  (If you have told us you want to have a spay or neuter contract with us to do this later please confirm with me so that we can arrange for that in the bill of sale.)  We will do the last round of de-worming medicine at the seventh week.  These puppies will go home healthy and ready to fit into their new families.
