Well it's confirmed we have another water puppy on our hands! Weller got to go to the river this weekend and loved every second of it. They almost couldn't get him out of it. Typical kid! (Abbey x Gus)

We received these beautiful pictures of one of our puppies today. This is Hailey from Lucy and Moose's last litter. She is 7 years old. She looks so much like her momma it isn't funny.

11 years. Where has the time gone. 11 years ago tonight Mike and I were delivering our first litter. We didn't have a clue what an amazing journey it would be and how many amazing people we would meet along the way. Happy Birthday to the remaining 3. Hope, Bear, and Samson.

New Penny pupdate! Penny has been back with us for 2 months now. She is doing great and has adjusted well to being back "home". And yes we are going to keep her. She has gained weight very well and looks great now. I can't feel her hips, shoulder blades, ribs and spine like we could when we got her back. We don't understand/comprehend the whole situation but bottom line we are glad they abided by the contract, reached out to us, and that we got her back when we did. She's scared of anyone other than Mike and I and I don't know that that will ever change. But hopefully her fears will fade with time and positive reinforcement. She loves her new playmate, Mabel.

Hi everybody! Abbey here reporting in from my new home in NJ! I've been a good girl learning to sit, walk on a leash, and potty outside. I have a big brother and I play monkey see monkey do with him all the time. He's very smart and I'm proving to be also. I even got to go to the library the other day. Everyone that meets me loves me. Well that's all for now. Have a good Wednesday!

At about 9:45 last night we received the news that Abbey was safe in her new home in New Jersey. And, as tradition would have it, it was time for the lamp to rest.

This week we'll be busy cleaning up the puppy room and getting things all back in storage. Jewel, Abbey, and Gus are officially retired.

Raylan, Goldie, and Ella are set to be OFA tested next spring and if all goes well we'll be breeding again by Christmas 2025.

Stay tuned for updates.

Congratulations to Dawn and Steve Donahue for adding this sweet little terror, I mean princess, to their family. Her name is Abbey Skye after a special group of girls, one being her momma. She has a Berner brother, Patron, waiting at home in NJ. I hope he's ready for this girl. She's sweet and strong and has a very special job in her future. We can't wait to see the great things she's going to do. Make us proud little one.
