Puppies eyes should start opening soon but will not be ready for viewings this weekend so I will start scheduling viewings for next weekend. Still have 2 yellow females available. 1 is a Dudley.

06/16/2024

We are 1 week old today. I thought we would have a 3 pounder but he was just shy. Pigment is still developing but I believe we may have 1 Dudley. I will be watching for eyes to open. We are starting to lift ourselves up as we are walking.

These chunks are going to be a week old tomorrow. Everyone is already 2 #. We may have a 3 # chunk by tomorrow. They have moved to bigger collars already.

06/14/2024

Some cuteness for the night. Sweet dreams. Can’t wait for the puppy breath. 🥰

06/14/2024

A few more days and I should know but I think the runt- Ricotta (pink collar) will not be a Dudley.

🐶 🐾 Pupdate Day 4 🐾🐶

All but the runt has reached 2 #. The runt is gaining just as nicely and will hit 2 # either tomorrow or the next day. She got a little overheated today but is doing better now. They are getting around very quickly and I expect they may be walking before their eyes open. Continuing to monitor pigment development. I will update on that as soon as I know for sure.

These chunky puppies continue to grow very rapidly. As I predicted, we have a 2 # 2 oz big guy at 3 days old. We have 3 others not very far away. The so called runt is already over 1.5 #. It looks like pigment is starting to show. I will be able to tell in a few days if there are any Dudley pups.

Just want to mention, because dad is a chocolate, yellow puppies do have chance to be Dudley’s.
For those that don’t know, a Dudley is a yellow that lacks black pigment in eye rims, nose, mouth and pads. Picture of past Dudley.

Mom and babies are doing fantastic. She is definitely feeding them well. They are already looking very plump. They have almost outgrown their puppy collars and they are only 2 days old. We will have a 2 #’er by tomorrow if they keep gaining weight this way. She is super attentive to them. She makes sure I’m not doing anything that might hurt them when I weigh them.

Brie- has gained 7.5 oz since birth
Ricotta- has gained 6.75 oz since birth
Gouda- has gained 9.5 oz since birth
Pepper Jack- has gained 7 oz since birth
Mozzarella- has gained 11.25 oz since birth.

These are going to be some hefty puppies.

06/11/2024

We still have 2 yellow females available if you know anyone interested

06/11/2024

We are 24 hours old and everyone is doing amazing. I would like to introduce our cheese litter.

06/10/2024

This litters go home date will be the weekend of August 3/4. Need some litter theme name suggestions

06/10/2024

Rebel did pass another puppy during the night. It was another yellow female. Unfortunately it had been so long, she was born sleeping.

06/10/2024

I believe we have 1 yellow male and 1 yellow female available at this time

06/10/2024

A family picture. I will do individual pictures tomorrow and contact everyone on my list. Even if she does deliver a late puppy, unfortunately not everyone on my list will get the puppy they were wanting. I am still waiting for one of my girls to come into heat. I expected it by now. Ruby is at the end of her prime heat period and I could breed her for an all 3 color unregistered litter if there is any interest in that. I will need to know right away if I am to breed her.

06/09/2024

We may be done. I am waiting a little longer as we have had late surprises before and I really thought she had at least 1 more in there. I will keep you posted and post some individual pictures as well.

06/09/2024

No 5(6) is a yellow male. I believe we have 1 or 2 more in there. Once completed, will post what I have left available after contacting those already on the list. At that point, anyone not on my list can contact me with interest at that time.

06/09/2024

We are not done but taking a much needed break. Will update when we start back up.

06/09/2024

No 4 (5) is a black female.

06/09/2024

No 3 (4) is a chocolate male. 2nd girl is doing better and nursing

06/09/2024

I will keep everyone posted on girl #2. She is not breathing normally yet- a little gasping. Her lungs were very wet on delivery. I have suctioned what I could. There has been some improvement since birth.

06/09/2024

No 2(3)- another yellow female.

06/09/2024

It has been a very long weekend. I hate 1st time litters as moms don’t always know what is going on so instinct takes a bit to kick in. We had our first puppy this morning at 6:10. It was a yellow male that was born sleeping. I unfortunately knew it would be because her sac broke around 9:30/10:00 last night. She just wasn’t pushing. Her 2nd pup came quickly after at 6:41. She is finally starting to settle with her and letting her nurse so hopefully smooth sailing from here.

06/08/2024

Puppies are still moving around

06/08/2024

She has been sleeping most of the day but still no pushing.

06/08/2024

Hope everyone got some sleep. Labor continues to progress. We have not started pushing yet but hopefully soon

06/08/2024

Labor

06/08/2024

It may be a long night. I believe we have started labor. I will keep everyone posted on progress.

06/07/2024

We are officially on puppy watch. We can expect puppies in next 24 hours
