Enjoying lunch!

Right after Olive has a good meal, she feeds her pups.  You can hear them 'glug'!

Once their tummies are full, they begin to interact with each other.  So cute!

Looks like the poor lamb is outnumbered by these 'attack wolves'!

They just love snuggling with this soft 'doodle'!  Almost like mom!!

Teal and Purple Girls have a conversation with the lamb.  Wonder what they are talking about?

We have moved to the puppy room!

 

We are almost three weeks old and I have been working on cleaning and prepping the Pup Room this week for their eventual occupation.  Thankfully, all went well and the pups are enjoying the sunnier location and colorful 'friends' that surround them.  I think they like their new area.  :+)

Figgy came for a visit and a grooming today.

I just LOVE her face!

A bit of her muzzle, ear tips and tail still have a tiny bit of the chocolate color she was born with.

This color is called Lavender and some breeders call it cafe`.  Whatever it is, I call it STUNNING!
Figgy is very happy to be done with her grooming and clip.  :+)

 Tango Wool 'Madrigal Moment'
AVAILABLE FOR GUARDIAN HOME FOR TANGO WOOL LABRADOODLES

Madrigal is a miniature Flb fleece coated beauty that will mature to approximately 20 lbs.  When this pic was taken, she was 16 weeks old and weighed 10 lbs.

This beautiful little gal is ready for her guardian home placement as part of Tango Wool's breeding program.  Madrigal is housebroken, crate trained, great on car rides and socialized incredibly well with children, adults and other dogs.  She does well in new situations and has been hiking, to nursing homes, schools and pig roasts.  Madrigal has also been exposed to bands and trains.

Marci is looking for a great guardian home with a fenced yard.  Owners with dog knowledge would be a bonus!  Guardians must be located within an hour and half from the Berkshires, Lenox, Lee, Gt. Barrington or Framingham, Massachusetts area. 

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone to get a pick of litter pup, WELL started in  training and at a reduced price.  A guardian pup always remains with their guardian home as long as the contract is fulfilled. Your purchase price is also returned at the end of your contract.

If interested or for more info, please call Marci, owner of Tango Wool Labradoodles at 413-717-5204. 

Olive's litter is two weeks old tomorrow!

Teal Girl weighs 2.6 lbs.

Orange Girl is at 2.5 lbs.

Black Girl tips the 2.8 lb. marker.

Purple Girl rolls in at 2.4 lbs.

Red Boy is 2.5 lbs.

And Green Boy weighs 2.8 lbs.

 

 

They certainly have been chugging the nutritious milk down that Olive has been providing.  She is nursing many times a day to keep this brood content.  I place a bowl of food in the whelping pool about every 3 hours during the day and always leave a good size snack for late night munching.

Of late, Olive has been taking some naps at night in our bedroom.  I can hear her come in and 'puff up' her pillow bed under ours.  She does not stay long, but needs a bit of time away from her demanding puppies.  All mothers understand the need for some 'me time'.  :+)  Obviously, she knows what she is doing as the pups are looking gorgeous!  :+)

A package of furry hot'dogs'. :+)

 

I walked into the office a bit ago and this is what I saw - I could not resist a pic of these cuties all lined up like a package of hotdogs.  How cute is this??  :+)

Weights on Olive's pups.

Hi all!

The pups are a full week old and I wanted to give all of you their individual weights.  I have also been taking them on car rides in a laundry basket nestled within a dog bed to keep it nice and snug.

Why?  At a seminar with well renown, Pat Hastings - an AKC judge, popular writer on dog conformation and a real stickler on 'form to function' in the canine world states: 'If you take newborn puppies for THREE car rides before they are 10 days old, they will not have car fear or get car sickness'.  I thought this was a remarkable tidbit of information.  Olive is the first girl to have a litter to test out this theory.  Of course, me being me - they will go on FIVE car rides within the timeframe of ten days because I take them out every other day.  The proof will be in the pudding when they go to the vets for their shots at 8 weeks; their eye appointments at 9 weeks and lastly, their spay/neuters.  So, these guys will have numerous car riding opportunities to have motion sickness and I hope this early intervention prevents that!

Here are their weights:

• Purple Girl - 1 lb., 8 ozs.
• Teal Girl - 1 lb., 8 ozs.
• Orange Girl - 1 lb., 12 ozs.
• Red Boy - 1 lb., 10 ozs.
• Black Girl - 1 lb., 12 ozs.
• Green Boy - 1 lb., 11 ozs.

As you can see, these pups are very close in weights and are right on target for approximately 30 lbs. +/- when mature.  As they grow, I will update weights weekly.   Keep watching the AnnaBlog because you just never know when I will post a pic!  :+)
