The puppies are
now eight weeks old.
Next it
was the turn of Honey to leave us.
Honey
has gone to live with Richard, Debs, Joshua and Ethan in Suffolk.
We know she will be very happy with her new family.

The
other puppies have been enjoying time in the garden with Bodie.
He is such a gentle dog and it is good for the puppies to learn from
him. Phoebe was the first to go and say hello.

Followed
by Benjamin.

Wispa
and Holly decided to sit and watch for a few moments.......

.....but
it was not long before they were all playing with Bodie's tail!

Purdy
decided to investigate Bodie chewing a Nylabone......

Bodie is
100% "bomb-proof" with puppies and a firm "gently" from me is all he
needs to realise that there are no cross words allowed over
possessions. It is interesting to see how puppies interact
with adult dogs and although Bodie did not growl a "look" was all
that was needed to keep this young lady in her place!

I know I
must not touch your bone but please may I look at your big toes?

Purdy
back in the lounge enjoying chewing on a toy.

Lily
giving the "chocolate box" look.

Next it
was Phoebe's turn to leave. She is also very "chocolate box".
Pheobe is going to live with the Greenfield family and their dog
Alfie from our 'Rose' litter.


Then it was Benjamin's
turn to meet his family. One last look before he leaves.

He soon made friends with Alex and
Katie.




Holly now lives locally
David and Sheelagh and her playmate Alana.



Purdy was the last puppy
to leave us. She is also living locally with Malcolm, Jill and
Alexander.

And so it was time for
Yaala to have a well earned rest. We had a holiday planned in
the New Forest and most of the girls went into boarding kennels
(where they were pampered!) - but as Yaala still had milk we made
the decision to take her on holiday with us.......she did not seem
to mind too much!

Happy Camper!

We gradually built up her
exercise and by the end of the holiday she was looking in superb
shape.......all she needs now is a 'new outfit'.
Enjoying the freedom of
the New Forest.


Yaala is superb beside a
bike and enjoyed trotting alongside me.

Waiting patiently!

Picking up the pace with
Marcus!

Individual puppy pages to

garden....

comforts....
