Life is hard when you've got these cuties sucking up your free time. Please send snacks, I'm stuck here now. 😂😍

The puppies survived the heat better than the rest of us. Poor Anarchy with milk production in full swing keeping her cool the last few days was the priority.
Thank goodness we've got a reasonable week ahead with much more moderate temperatures.

We took some photos of the puppies. I'll get them up hopefully today, after we get on top of some of the chores that we put off over the weekend.

Happy New Year's. 🥳 🥂
We'll be celebrating with
Anarchy and Onni's puppies.
We don't party like we used to. 😂

5 girls, 1 boy (in the photo he's the cream on the far right).
Everyone's doing fabulous, though I could do with a nap 😂

Happy Birthday Diamonds. I know it's awesome the whole family gets together to celebrate your special day. Try to play it cool and be your bestest good selves.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

Anarchy is due on the 27th. Looks like we'll have our first double up date for litters born and honestly it comes as no surprise it's a December date.

11 Dec 15 - Elixir
25 Dec 15 - Diamonds
29 Dec 17 - Characters
12 Dec 20 - Hearts and Hiro's
1 Jan 22 - J Drinks
27 Dec 22 - Khal and Khaleesi

November (3) and December (5) and January (1) on New Year's Day.... This time of year is certainly popular for our girls to have their litters and it's worked out great in the past. But this might be my last Christmas Litter.

There are bonuses to having litters when it's nice weather. Less worry about heating and keeping puppies warm, less mud tracked all over the house, puppy bedding dries quickly on the line, nice weather for outdoor activities and puppies love frozen water bottles and learn they're a cue for nap time but there are drawbacks.
Snake season this year is already intense and I've been more nervous than ever trying to keep everyone safe. Apologies if I'm a bit anxious and distracted the next few months

Nicole Naismith and Eleani Purcell and Frank... Please give Pebbles and Bamm Bamm a kiss from us on their birthday as i'll likely miss making a post in the chaos of whelping and settling in mum and puppies.

Happy Birthday to the J litter as well for New Year's. 🍰🎂🎉 Another big party.

I hope everyone enjoys their Christmas and New Year.

Please remember our best mates are only with us for a short time. Make moments that matter.

As always, please share photos. I love seeing all the updates and hearing about the pups we've bred, their life and adventures.
We held their tiny lives in our hands when they were so small and innocent and we wished big wishes and dreams for all of them. We'd love to know that they're living their best life.

Shareen.

The QLD Guide Dogs case study really shone a light on how crappy kibble is for dogs.

From the reel
"In 2009 Guide Dogs QLD switched 216 from a Kibble diet to a raw diet. In just 1 year, their vet bills dropped by over $50,000. The incidence of skin, ear and gut conditions dropped. There were less urinary tract infections and joint issues. Despite expanding their colony, healthcare costs dropped by 82% after the diet change. INCREDIBLE! Thank you to Dr. Conor Brady of Dogs First for highlighting this fantastic case study in his book, Feeding Dogs.

What's the cost of your pet's food? It goes way beyond the cost of the food itself. A high meat, high moisture, species appropriate diet is the best way to keep your dog or cat living their longest, best life. . Sign up now for my Dog Nutrition Summit - link in comments! "

I thoroughly recommend this page.

The grass is greener on my side. I just opened the gates to the (dog) backyard and the sheep came running. Haha

Our highly anticipated litter from Anarchy and Onni is confirmed. Scraping in at the very end of 2024, the 2nd litter for 2024 and the one we've been planning for almost 2 years is finally happening.
I can't believe how nervous and excited I am to meet these guys.
We weren't anticipating a larger litter but scan suggested a few extra stowaways so we may have 1 or 2 puppies interviewing for homes. Ideal owners are active and wanting to include their pup in activities and adventures. We're not expecting couch potatoes from this stunning combination of Finnish bloodlines.
The countdown is on. 🤞

Theme suggestions now open. This is our N litter for registration names. Puppy litter theme can be unrelated.
Ch. Caleebra Summer Sweetheart (AI) - Anarchy was a Barden Bella from Pitch Perfect.
FI Ch, EE Ch, LT Ch. Expected Corretto - Onni's litter were a coffee theme.
Possible colours: Black and Tan, Brown and Tan, Black or Brown with minimal markings and Cream.

My morning routine consists of belly rubs and kisses from Winter. Every morning. If I'm not careful I get woken up to a whole lot of kisses. Lucky she's cute

Someone is due to shed her coat..... Can you tell?

Caught up with the ridiculously handsome Koda yesterday for a few hours. Grateful to his family, and especially his tiny human for allowing him to come play with us.
Added a photo of his parents. ♥️

I want to post cute things but my dogs are only exercising their hunting and flirting skills. Here the girls were fighting the urge to scatter the parrots. This King Parrot was the bravest.

Riley is ready to receive her adoring public at the FLCV Specialty show today from 8am-close. Cuddles and treats will be graciously accepted.
Keke and Skipper are there too. 53 entries today.

Anarchy is a soft squishmallo today. Good thing we're not at the show.
Fingers crossed she's incubating and we're welcoming puppies in a couple of months. 🤣

5 years old today! I can hardly believe it. Happy Birthday Icies.
Link, Hugo, Marvin, Nushka, Mabel, Taz and Riker.

Think that's a record with 3 of the pups keeping their puppy names. The theme was the Looney Tunes because Mumma Aura earned the nickname George as a pup for being the sweetest girl. You just wanted to "pet her and squeeze her and love her and call her George"

Do they shed?.... This guy's coat got away from his busy Mum. So she enlisted the help of Kayla at Gremlin Grooming who got out all his dead undercoat and made him feel all fresh and new.
