I am so excited about this breeding. Marco (GCH Prairiwinds N Lordocs Marco Island) and Fern (CH Carneys What Grows Wild Along the River) are expecting puppies the end of February! Their colors are both gold sable parti so I’m thinking we’ll have much of the same with this litter. Fern is small and Marco is just a shade larger.

So Many Mixed Emotions
Fern and Lily’s puppies are leaving in less than a week. I am so happy for them and the wonderful families that will love them. But I am sad because I will miss them. Here’s a video from today of them playing with the grownups!
Our Eyes Are Beginning to Open!!
This is when the fun begins! The puppies are moving around a lot now and all but one have eyes at least partially open! They are also making fun coos and chirps…almost like little birds. Please click “MORE” to see photos of each pup at two weeks.
