Weekly Puppy Pictures

Dancer's gold girl. We call her Carmel.

Dancer's boys, Socks and Ty.

This past weekend the puppies had numerous "firsts;" first bath, first time under a blow dryer, first time in a crate, first car ride, first vet visit for a check up, and first puppy shots. I'm pleased to report that they manged it all quite well! They made a huge hit with the vet techs and assistants at the vet's office (All Pets Veterinary Clinic in Macomb where my dogs get excellent care). Everyone weighed between three pounds and just under four pounds.

We have a new set of puppy pictures to share. These were taken last night. Mira's puppies were 7 weeks old on the 9th, and Dancer's were 8 weeks old on the 11th. As you can see, all are growing and coats are getting fluffy. The blacks look so cute with their little white chins, like they were dipped in milk!

We've "named" the puppies because we have to call them something to distinguish among them as we talk about them. Potential puppy buyers wonder if they have to keep those names. Absolutely not. The names are merely for our purposes in telling them apart. With this posting I decided to share those names.

Mira's boy, Jet.

They are fun to watch as they play. Their personalities are developing. They are all happy and outgoing, full of curiosity. Their moms enjoy being with them (to a point) and it's fun to watch them play with and teach their puppies. I've learned to do the "puppy shuffle" when they are all running around the family room. They are fast as can be and seem to enjoy nothing more that getting under my feet!

As of today, three of  the  puppies have been reserved, one of the gold boys, one of the gold girls, and another girl yet to be chosen. I have also decided to keep one of the gold females from Mira's litter. I am in love (as usual) with one of the boys, Mira's male that we call Jet. I simply cannot keep another male though. We're waiting until after Christmas before the puppies leave unless the new owners plan to have a quiet holiday. Hectic households at holiday time are not good for introducing a puppy to a new environment.

I hope you enjoyed the latest pictures!

Life is good when you have a Lhasa to love you!
