Ozzy

Sweet Oz is the only puppy left.  He has a sensitive nature, is very smart & intuitive, and loves to play with the big dogs.  He's quite respectful of the older dogs, but really wants to be part of the group.  Not our group though!  We have too many already!!!

Ozzy's coat is gorgeous.  I cannot even pull a hair from it.  Whoever gets him may be pleasantly surprised that although he has a lot of lab characteristics, his coat seems to be quite low shed.  His beard, ear fringe and paw fringe are growing in beautifully.  I think he'll have waves in his coat as well.

Oz was 8 weeks yesterday.  He's going to be a large dog, since he's always been the heaviest in the litter.  I'd estimate his adult size to be around 80 pounds.

Little gorillas

The puppies who are left here, Ozzy, Ringo & Hank, are expanding their food horizons.  They're absolutely ravenous when it comes to bits of cooked chicken liver.  At breakfast they like a couple of bites of banana and apple.  And today they're gnawing on whole carrots.  The poodle part shines through again!

Maddie just drove off in the mail truck

Goodness!  What a day.  

Paula and Jim Mann decided on Hank this morning.  They have company coming in from out of town, so are waiting to take him next Sunday, the 11th.  

Salee, Jeff, Kathleen and Alex came by to bring Dobby and Sunny home this morning.  They've already had a field trip with them, so this will probably be an easy transition.

Anna Z. and her mom, Nancy, picked up Andy this morning.  Ellie gave him one last growl goodbye--after he asked for one last drink of milk.

Kim Maslanik picked up Rocky last night on her way to the pumpkin patch.  Hayley was sorry to see her little buddy go.

Steve Fowler just called from Petco.  He's on his way up to get Lady (Charlotte).  

Heather Ferry should be leaving a Chuckee Cheese birthday party any minute, and will head up here with her two sons to get Carly.

Phew!

Oh, yeah--Rick, our mail carrier (you met him, Maria), came by after finishing his route and decided to take Maddie.  He and Denise have always had labs, and have one waiting at home to be Maddie's sister.  

Busy weekend ahead

Charlotte's new name is Shady Lady, and she'll go by Lady.  Many puppies (8) are leaving from Friday thru Monday.  Goodness!  That'll change the place!!!

Poodle babies to the vet this a.m.

McKenzie's brushing the 4 little poodle babies.  Off to the vet for their shots this morning, then we're all done with vet visits.

Carly is sold

Heather Ferry and her family will be taking Carly home with them this weekend.  Hayden, her older son, is practicing puppy training with his stuffed animals.

Charlotte found her person

Steve Fowler is going to take Charlotte.  It's a very good match, as he'll be with her a lot, and likes to do outdoor water sports.  She's such a sweetheart.  She'll be cuddling on the couch with him too, I imagine.

That leaves just 3 puppies available, if Heather Ferry takes Carly.  Still left are:  Hank, Ozzy, and Maddie.  All are sweet and gentle.  You just never know who's going to go last!  It's amazing how they all get matched up so perfectly to their people.
