Autumn 2021, better late than never!

 It’s July 2023, but I just had to share pictures from our favorite season! So I’m backdating this post, hope you enjoy the pictures!

Kori and Scarlett with our friends’ tri color collie, Kelsea, on a Fall hike.




Such a sweet, old gentleman.  I never get tired of looking at his handsome face! 

Scarlett, Ryder and Kori….our three Abby kids, all seniors now!

We didn’t get much rain this season, so the water was very low…

How does your garden grow?

 The puppies just turned 6 months old last week, so I'm going to try to do a couple posts, to get all caught up.  I just want to share pictures, because it's amazing how quickly they grow.  Prepare for puppy spam! lol

It's alright to be Itty Bitty

 Puppies are such a joy, but they grow up so quickly. I wish they stayed little, just a little longer.  Watching them change almost daily, and watching their personalities develop, keeps me glued to their sides.  I can't help studying their sweet, tiny faces and dreaming about their futures.  One of my favorite moments is when the puppies open their eyes.  These puppies opened their eyes right on schedule, at 13 days old.



Here they are at 16 days old, they are starting to look less like hamsters and more like tiny puppies.  They also started playing and barking, their first attempts at barking is absolutely adorable!

I just fall completely in love with every puppy in my litters, and freely admit to becoming obsessed.  They are so sweet, helpless and perfect that I rarely leave their side.

In the blink of an eye...

"True life is lived when tiny changes occur."  Leo Tolstoy


 Born on May 29th. the puppies were perfect.  There were four girls and one boy in the litter.  Four were  smooths and there was one tiny rough girl.  I was completely in love with these babies, and I'm still obsessed!

The tiny rough girl, in the middle



You can see the tiny rough girl, right in the middle of her siblings.


It's amazing how quickly they grow and change, it seems to happen overnight.  But thanks to COVID, I was able to be home for almost every moment.



I already miss the tiny babies they once were.  I wish it lasted a little longer...

Five little heartbeats...

 

Right when we needed them most our new puppies were born.  Five puppies, four girls and one boy, came into our lives and with them so much joy and happiness.


Born on May 29th, 2020, they were perfect!  Maizie had a quick and easy delivery, and she proved to be the perfect collie Mama.  She took such good care of her babies, and always kept a close eye on them whenever we picked them up.

and then there were four...

This was what every breeder prays for, an easy delivery, healthy puppies and a happy, healthy Mama.  We couldn't have asked for more!

All five have arrived!

We did have one tiny girl in the litter, she was the only rough puppy.  She is the third puppy in the picture posted above.  My daughter named her Melody, and she was a feisty puppy!  (She still is, judging by the pictures her new family sends us.)

Bridget is all tired out! Being born is hard work!

This was just the beginning of their story, but it was a very happy beginning.  I have so much more to share...
