This is Chloe posting, the daughter :) it's been a sad day for us today, we have had quite a few tears. 3 of the 12 pups have gone to their loving new homes today which were Alfie, Domino and Dave. The pen is abit quieter without them and we can really notice the difference! Especially the poop! 6 pups are going tomorrow which i'm sure will bring more tears - best bring out the kleenex! The other remaining 2 will be going to their new homes on tuesday. The house will definately feel empty but...

All pups have had their first vaccination and checked over by the vet, all are fit and well with all the boys 'complete'! The vet's practice was all over the pups, they loved them! Had enough fun getting them there and into the practice!

Also I'd like to mention about the puppy food for those that are reading this. We were feeding them on Butcher's puppy food mixed with Beaphars lactol milk. For a while we were having real issues with loose poo's, so we tried them on something different to see...

Well the time is flying now, the pups are now over 6 weeks old and not long for them to leave for their new homes. Their meat intake has increased a little and they seem to be enjoying it.

Well yesterday, the 13th September saw the pups at 5 weeks old and a nice 80 mile round trip to have their BAER hearing tests carried out. Not a nice trip as we had to get their early in order to feed them all before our appointment, this was to make them a little docile for the tests. It went better than expected and out of the 12 pups we only had two with failed hearing in one ear, the rest were fine. After discussing this with Kate, the vet at Seadown, she said the two which had uni-latera...

Well they are getting 'fatter'! Weight is going on nicely and they are getting a lovely shape to them. Daisy has been weaned off now and so all on substitute milk and puppy food which they are lapping up well. We are seeing some right personalities coming through, feisty ones as well! Some play fighting going on and chewing of ears and whatever else they can grab a nold of! They are sleeping through the night now, no dramas which is pleasing. As it stands we have two boys left pending viewing...

Well overdue! It's been a busy time looking after the pups, taking it in turns to sleep on the sofa! Daisy has been on double rations so inevitable toilet breaks in the early hours etc! Well the pups are growing well and getting the own personalities. They are also developing their teeth! Daisy is weaning so we are doing our bit in giving them puppy milk and some puppy food. The first time on puppy food was somewhat interesting! Milk mixed with puppy food and all twelve having a free for all!...
