The puppies went on a short car ride today and went to Starbucks for a pup cup ❤️😆

It was so cute- they all started kissing each other.

Most of them are leaving this week - 💜

This hunk of love is suddenly available due to unforeseen circumstances.

He can go to his new home at the end of this week :)

He has the sweetest laid-back demeanor. 🥰

Introducing...."Milo" 🥰

Milo is going home to Chicago in a few weeks. He has his very own little boy to play with! ❤❤❤

It was a beautiful moment yesterday to see Milo pick his own family. He walked over to the little boy and stayed by him as if to say... " you are mine!" 🥰

Milo has a soft expression and is extremely smart!

Meet your puppy weekend! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m happy but sad to see them go to their new homes in two weeks!

Here’s the boys 💙

Good Morning!

The puppies are starting some solid food (hence the messy paws🥰)

One thing I do with my puppies is play classical music for them. If you have one of Indy's last litters-those were my Mozart babies!

We are starting some daily Bach this week with these guys...

Music is powerful for children and animals. Music brings life into your home, and animals can sense emotion.

I will try to get a video of them listening to music this week; it's nap time right now! 🥰🥰🥰

We are 2 weeks old! 💗💗💗

(it's been BUSY here, friends!) Catching up for a moment before the weekend.

Updates:
*Our eyes are OPEN!
*Early neurological training is almost complete, and everyone did wonderfully! ( I see future therapy dogs in this mix!😍)
*We already weigh about 3-4 lbs each
* Indy is doing great keeping up with milk supply, no one had needed extra goat milk 💗
* We are starting noise introductions this week (household, environmental, everyday sounds)

We will get individual pictures next week as they are just starting to grow and getting their own individual look.

I'm leaving you with a nap time picture from today. They were all cuddled up as I cleaned out their area. 🥰

This article is on my website, but I'm sharing it here, too!

Great Pyrenees are born sometimes with black or tan badger markings while some are born purely white.

The colors are darker at birth and gradually fade.

😍❤🥰 Indy delivered ***9*** healthy puppies this afternoon! She did wonderful and the sweet babies are doing great! We are over the moon in love over here!
6 BOYS, 3 GIRLS 💙💙💙💙💙💙💗💗💗

We limited the number of reservations for this litter until we knew exactly how many there were. So, we are accepting a few new applications now!!!

Your puppy will be coming home the last weekend of July or first week of August! Follow along as we begin early neurological stimulation starting in a few days!

For now, we are spoiling Indy with treats and just staring at these cutie pies!

Families that already reserved- I will be emailing you over the next few days! 🥰

We are on puppy watch this week!

Expecting puppies any day🐾🐾🐾😍

We are ready to go and are pampering our mommy dogs with lots of nutritious treats and grooming!

If you are on the waitlist, you will be notified as soon as the babies are born! We will have videos and lots of photos!
So excited!

What a beautiful time of year! ❤🦋🌻🌼🌹

If you are interested in a puppy, we expect puppies to go home at the end of July/early August.
We screen all our potential families prior to approval- that process starts with filling out a questionnaire. Here's our link: https://oldfashionedhomestead.com/reserving-your-puppy

All of our puppies go through the process of early neurological stimulation.
This article is up on our website, but I'm sharing it here as well.
https://breedingbetterdogs.com/article/early-neurological-stimulation
Our plan for the upcoming litters is to live stream the process so you can see what is involved and how the puppies respond and progress.

We have puppies that will be available this summer then we are taking a break :)

🐾An update on Everest! Her mom sent me a text this morning that said:

"She's such an incredible girl! She's gentle, smart, so good with kids (especially the baby who she feels is her responsibility), and loves all other animals. She helps me every morning and evening with farm chores...
We love her so much! Thank you for an amazing dog!"

❤❤❤
I loved this update- Isn't she beautiful?

We are taking a few more deposits for our summer litter then Indy will have a long break. Her vet has her on a nice schedule that is best for her ❤

What a sweet face you have, Kiri!

❤❤❤ PUPDATE:

We expect puppies this summer and are now opening up for applications and reservations. We are getting daily emails/questions about puppies so it's easier to make this general announcement.

We are following the advice from our veterinarian and will be giving Indy a long break following this litter. This will be her final litter until late 2024/25.

We are only accepting a limited number of reservations on this litter and a few slots are already reserved.

What a gorgeous boy! The perfect "pyr" head. 💗

Crazy morning at our mini-farm. We woke up to find this little guy born in the corner of the stall. We had no idea his mom was even pregnant!

We're warming him up and assessing him before bringing him back to his mama.

How cute is he!? 💗

This beauty is still available to an approved home only ❤️

“ Snow” loves children and would be an excellent therapy dog or family pet.

She could also be trained as a livestock guardian. Please PM with inquiries.
