6 of the 7 Veggies went off to their new homes this past week. Meanwhile our spunky guy, Crosby, successfully underwent his hernia surgery and after he has fully recovered we will be selecting the perfect home for this special boy.

Beyond proud of my Strudel Doodle (Casey x Duff), who earned two more 5-point majors toward her Grand Championship this past weekend, taking Select/BOBOH and then Best of Opposite at the two C&P GSMD Club specialties in Doswell, Virginia. Thank you to Ken and Donna Buxton for finding my special girl!!!

Happy 1 week birthday to our special surprise party pups! Two negative ultrasounds and then suddenly a day 52 puppy bump appeared which ultrasound confirmed! One boy and one girl, named in honor of their parents, Doss and Charlotte.

This litter, co-bred with Megan Westenmeyer (Blue View GSMDs), is being raised here. Both puppies are spoken for.

🥦🥕🌽🫑Everyone seemed to love the humor of the "just kidding names" as much as we did...our garden is so bountiful we could afford to give them names twice!

They've have ripened into their final names!

I get my sleep vicariously these days!! Peaceful early morning vibes in the whelping box, with happy full tummies and an attentive though sometimes snoring Mama! Duff is doing a stellar job, as always.

The little figgies are starting to bud! Week one of Koda x Fig 😍

27/07/2023

This is how it was going yesterday. Swipe to see how it’s going today!

Fig was hit with a nasty case of mastitis, which is not totally uncommon when that rush of milk finally comes in (we are lucky that we’ve only had it once, in 2015, when Bronx had a litter of 11 puppies).

After a trip to the amazing , 24 hours of antibiotics, pain meds and cold cabbage compresses, Fig is already so much happier and brighter today. Through all this she continues to be an amazing devoted Mom, who will suffer through the nursing if necessary (it’s also actually good for the mastitis) to make sure her brood is well fed and cared for.
Now that we are all feeling a bit happier and more relaxed, hopefully we can get 1 week mugshots of the Figlets today!
