More Puppy updates…

Three of our puppies have gone to their new homes.  Mark is now called Simon, and in a wonderful home.  His new family has already taught him many new tricks, and they hope to get him into a dog modeling career.  So you may see him in a commercial or advertisement one day!  They also agreed we could show him, so he is going to work towards earning his championship.


Christina left last week, and is living her best life on Cape Cod!  She has been renamed Frannie, which suits her beautifully.  She has discovered a love of the ocean life, and her new hobbies include swimming and boating!




Derek, Izzy and Meredith are growing up so fast and went for their 2nd vaccines this week. The veterinary staff loved them! Derek left us yesterday, so we don’t have any new photos yet.  But his new family already adore him, and his new name is Leo!  This video was from earlier in the week.



The beautiful Izzy, now named Tempest

Izzy will be going to her new home this weekend, and Meredith will be staying with us.  Meredith had a name change too.  Since the name was no longer being used, and fits her so well, Meredith is now called Shannon.  The name “Shannon” was in honor of one of our favorite collies, and is also the name of a family member, so we still wanted to use it.  And it fits our new girl perfectly…



And there was one other new addition to the family…my newest Grandson was born two weeks ago!  I now have four beautiful grandchildren! (Which is one of the reasons I’ve been so lax about updating!) We are so grateful for the wonderful new homes all our puppies have found.  We are wishing them all a lifetime of happy memories!

Updates - Sam and Silver

 Sam and Silver, Dean’s littermates, have been busy trying out dog shows!


Silver, or Slyvie, has become a beautiful young lady.  You may remember we were originally calling her Shannon, but it just didn’t fit her personality.  As soon as we tried out Silver, she came running, so Silver it is!


 Sam is a handsome boy, and as sweet as they come.  Both Sam and Silver did great at their first real dog show, and earned their first points towards their championships.  They are entered next weekend in another two day show.  We are hoping it isn’t too hot, as it’s an outdoor show.  More to come about these two cuties!

Updates - Dean

It’s been a while, much longer than I realized, so it’s time for an update! (The 1st of many)

We made the very difficult decision to let Dean go, but happily he went to live with our friend Ava.  While I love Dean very much, we knew we just couldn’t keep three puppies from the same litter.  Ava has been wanting a puppy from us for a while, and Dean just seemed perfect for her.


It ended up being one of the best decisions we ever made!  Ava is giving Dean the best life, they are trying lots of new things…like herding…and agility…


And he is learning to be brave around scary monsters…


And he has even discovered a love of swimming! Our past collies never liked swimming, but our new generations seem to love it! (Thanks to our collie Mamas, Peyton and ZuZu!)

Ava loves her boy so much, and she is giving him the best life.  She is also great about updating us on their adventures, so we will get to watch Dean grow up.
