Picture day!

They’re squirmy worms so this is quite a project. Will get everyone’s pictures posted today, but it’ll take me a couple posts!

Starting with -

Orange - red Merle male

Dark Blue - black tri color male

Light Pink - blue Merle female

Red - blue Merle male

Ten days old and they’ve all discovered they can use their legs to do more than scoot around!

I will get individual photos taken and posted tomorrow, finally. Everyone is thriving, but it’s been a lot of work!

It’s looking like we will have at least a couple pups heading to Florida, with a meet up in Valdosta, GA. If you’re down that way and were interested, I’ll have room for more on that trip. 😊

One week old already! Need to get updated individual pictures but I don’t think today is that day. 😂

Everyone continues to do well, we definitely have some pups that seem like they’ll be on the larger side like their dad!

Just a quick sweet snuggle session I caught!

Oakley & her pups are all doing great! They started Early Neurological Stimulation yesterday, and will receive that daily until they are 16 days old. I’ll add a picture to the comments with the checklist I use. This is thought to aid them with their overall resilience, coping mechanisms and development. It only takes a few seconds per puppy, per day, and it basically introduces them to mild stressors and allows them to develop their coping mechanisms early on.

Soon, they’ll also start listening to various soundtracks exposing them to noises they’ll experience throughout their life. Fireworks, cars back firing, storms, construction, etc. They’re already accustomed to vacuuming and power tools because I’ve been a busy bee. 😂

(The “pillow” is Orange, our male red Merle!)

These are far from “good” pictures, but I wanted to get some individual pics up quickly. I’ve had many inquires already, I’ll start accepting deposits at two weeks of age. At this stage, I’m just trying to keep my head above water making sure they’re getting enough to eat, etc.!

*IMPORTANT NOTE* - I have decided to keep this litter NATURAL, just as I did with our last. That means they will keep their full tails and dew claws. It isn’t for everyone, I know! I’ve done quite a bit of research, and after docking our first litter in 2021, I’m still a little scarred I guess. We have Porter (aka Squish) from Archer and Oakley’s first litter, and let me tell you the tail is the absolute best.

For now everyone will be referred to by their collar color. We are working on a theme to give them temporary names. I’ll go add comments with each pups color/name after this posts!

Girls -
Gray (black tri color)
Purple (red Merle)
Light pink (blue Merle)
Bright pink (blue Merle)
Yellow (black tri color)

Boys -
Dark blue (black tri color)
Red (blue Merle)
Lime (blue Merle)
Bright blue (blue Merle)
Orange (red Merle)

Happy Halloween from these little pumpkins and their mama! 🎃

Apparently Oakley got on Facebook last night and decided her due date was just for fun.

I *think* she is done now. Officially. 😂 Two had a bit of a rough start, but seem to be doing just fine now thankfully.

She and Archer welcomed 5 girls and 5 boys today. Her first litter was four total, so to say I’m shocked is a slight understatement!

10/29/2024

Not the best photos, but that’s ok!

Dad Archer, Grandpa Miller and mama Oakley flopped out in the kitchen… all three wanted me to share that Oakley is due FRIDAY!

I set up her whelping area today and she and I hung out in there for a bit. She’s gigantic and I’m a little worried to see how many pups she has stuffed in her belly. She feels like she’s about to split open.

Anxious to share once they’ve made their arrival!

Hi! LONG time no post. Life is busy to say the least. We bought a fixer upper house 2.5 years ago and let’s just say I may be done by year 5. We’ve also expanded our farm which has been so fun! There’s always something to do, that’s for sure!

I think we’ve decided on one more litter - almost definitely our last. It’ll be a repeat pairing of Archer (black tri) and Oakley (blue Merle with blue eyes) and all colors are possible. Adding a photo of their first litter here so you can see the cuteness!

Parents are health tested, pups will come with age appropriate deworming, vaccinations, tail docks and AKC paperwork. I raise them with ENS and Puppy Culture - they’ll also be able to meet a wide variety of people and animals here on our farm!

We are estimating an early November litter with a go home date of around January 10th. Just posting to gauge any interest - I’ll open up a wait list once Oakley is confirmed to be bred!

We are in the Knoxville, TN area. Please reach out with any questions.

Happy 3rd birthday to our little Valentines!

A very happy First Birthday to Chunk, Pudge, Squish (now Porter) and Little Girl (Nova)!

Newborn photo, and Porter Squish in the middle. That’s his grandpa (his favorite “person” in the world) Miller on the left, and his mom Oakley to the right. 😊

Managed to get another family photo this evening as I went to feed our barnyard pals dinner! Pardon the yard in need of cutting and edging, it’s rained tons lately and hasn’t dried up enough to allow me to get any yard work done.

We hope you all had a happy and safe Fourth of July! If you have a pup from us, how did they do with fireworks?

We had a major storm roll through just before dark - these goons were outside enjoying it and had to be called in for their safety. Fireworks didn’t phase them, thankfully!

I feel like a not-so-small miracle took place today. Caught this scene as I was playing lifeguard for our disabled duck (yeah, you read that right.) they rarely hold still, so a decent whole three generation family picture is extra special.

Would have been better had I pressure washed the muddy door… grateful our yard isn’t a mud pit any longer but the cleanup feels never ending!

(Their +1 is Ripley, one of our miniature poodles. He’s everyone’s favorite playmate and considers himself an Aussie!)

Haven't had much to share lately, much easier when there are cute little puppies around!

We have not yet decided if we will continue with our program, or if our last litter was it. We've kept so busy working on our home (which we moved into a year ago almost exactly!) that it's definitely on the back burner for the foreseeable future.

Speaking of our last litter, can you believe they're seven months old today?! I need to get an updated photo of Porter (Squish) but he's almost as big as his dad already, and Archer's a big guy! Porter is definitely the most energetic of our Aussie's, he loves his grandparents and has picked up the most annoying quirk of each, so that's fun. 🤣 He loves playing with Archer and Oakley as well, but is definitely more fascinated by Miller and Scarlett.

Happy 7 months, babies!

Happy Second Birthday to our little Valentines!

12/28/2022

Porter (Squish) went to the vet for his next vaccine today.

23.6lbs! He definitely gets it from his daddy. 😬

12/26/2022

Merry Christmas from all of us at Miller’s Legacy!

Mama Oakley and not so little Squish (now Porter) snuggled up after a busy day playing in the snow!

(And yep, he is almost as big as she is. Porter definitely takes after his daddy.)

Just a quick funny from today. Our granite was installed today (a real Christmas miracle! LONG story) and they started drilling the holes for the faucet. It was much louder than I expected, and after about 15 seconds, I went “oh no! Porter Squish must be terrified.” and ran to make sure he was ok. That was two seconds of worry wasted. Early exposure works! Pardon the fluff, apparently I only selectively swept this morning. Video is loud, watch your volume!

Early morning wrestling!

Sound on for puppy voices! (And if you’re able to hear the “say hello!” at the very start of the video, that’s Leo, our African Grey parrot. He’s pretty positive he’ll be able to teach the babies to talk!)
