Welcoming Meri’s Pups to the World!

On December 18 Meri whelped 5 beautiful puppies! 3 boys and 2 girls. It was a long day for Meri. The first two pups arrived at 2 and 3 pm with little fanfare. But our little black boy puppy put my nerves to the test! After 2 hours with a little contracting but no puppy, I took Meri to our local 24 hour emergency vet. Our worry was that this boy was stuck. Turns out he was just stubborn. Finally, at 6:30 after a dose of oxytocin, he was born…healthy and hungry! By 8:00 pm a black girl and the white boy had arrived!

Here is Phantom…the proud papa!

Sire of this litter is our boy Phantom. Both dogs have very sweet dispositions. Phantom would play fetch with me all day long if given the opportunity!

Our “Fun at the Beach” Litter

This is Shades. He is a dark sable with some cream on his chest. A very mellow fellow!

This is Diver. He is black with a bit of white on his two front paws, more white on the back ones and a white goatee which you can barely see.

Fern’s puppies are growing like crazy! Their eyes are almost open. And they are moving around, making sweet puppy growls and tussling with each other. Here are their photos with their names…that my grandson suggested!                                             

Shades again.

Here you can see one of Diver’s white back paws.

This is Sandy. He is lighter than it shows in the photo. He has white on his front paws and a white chest.

Sandy

Sweet Sandy.

And this is Flip-Flop. The only girl and the biggest of the bunch though that is likely to change. You can see her pink nose is beginning to darken and her eyes are almost open.

Fern and Phantom Have Puppies!

We have 5 beautiful puppies in our house that were born May 20…three days early!

Sire is GCH CH Los Legendas Magic in Carneys Garden (aka Phantom) and dam is GCH CH Artwryks at Carneys Paradise Garden (aka Maggie).

The first born is still a little on the small side but we are hoping she will catch up to her siblings over time.

Here is their photo. Beautiful, right?
