We are on the other side of the mountain and counting down to 'Go Home Day'. Skye x Duckie - Week 7!

Wow, time is flying by, isn't it?  Next week, the pups will be seeing my trainer and once I receive her write ups (several days), I will assign these curly cuties!  I know everyone can hardly wait but be patient!!

With my grand-daughters here everyday, these pups are getting loads of attention, cuddles and play time!  They love the outdoor play area and chasing Winnie!  So the pups are getting socialized well with both kids and other friendly dogs.

I have found this litter to be very intelligent.  Training to go potty in a particular spot has been very easy both indoors and out.  When I 'copied' the same set up outside as inside, they immediately recognized the set up and used 'the bathroom'.  I am quite pleased as it makes clean up for me nice and convenient.  Thank you pups!!  :+)

After a wonderful rainstorm last night, the sun is shining and everything smells fresh.  Today's pic segment features them being prepared for the bright sunlight.  

PURPLE GIRL - 3 1/2 lbs.  

RED GIRL - 4 3/4 LBS.

GREEN GIRL - 3 3/4 LBS.

BROWN BOY - 3 1/4 LBS.

BLUE BOY - 4 LBS.

You may notice in some of these pics that I clipped their eyes and also their VERY scratchy nails!!  The curly coats will be soft and because they are such little guys will be easy for qualified groomers to keep prim and proper.  I was surprised at how well they did when I trimmed their eyes - very cooperative.  :+)

I find all of the pups curious, energetic, smart and engaging.  They love to wrestle, chase, explore and meet people.  I think all of you will be pleased with any one of them.

I finally have some availability! - Currently all sold.

Finally, since the whirlwind of COVID, normalcy has returned.  Thank goodness!!!

It has always been my policy here at ADNE to not take in a deposit when you inquire or send in an application regarding an upcoming litter.  I know this is not the 'typical method' as most demand a non-refundable deposit with all applications.  I don't mind if you shop around to find a pup available earlier, or is the perfect size or color.  We shop around for many things we purchase, right?  

Hence many of my wait list applications have found pups elsewhere and I am very happy for them!  Now I have pups for sale after almost two years of 'crazy' demand. 

Pics of Elsie and her four girls!!!

A closer shot of Elsie's four little girls - Ruby (black). Teal, Coral and Violet are apricot.

Happy and content, Elsie is proud of her girls.

  

Elsie's tiny girl is struggling...

More than likely, she won't make it.  This is one of the very sad sides of breeding.  I am keeping her warm which is all you can do when faced with this sad event.  If she can keep her temperature up, I will give her a drop or two of formula to build strength.    

UPDATE:  This tiny angle flew to heaven surrounded by her siblings.  :+(

ELSIE HAS DELIVERED!

Elsie started in the early morning and, of course, there were surprises!  First of all, she definitely had more light colored pups than I ever expected and THEY ARE ALL FEMALES!  Not a male in the bunch - THAT was a huge surprise.  It is rare to have all one gender in a litter.

I will post pics after I have had some time to recover.  Stay tuned! 

ELSIE'S X-RAY shows five pups!!

 Elsie is here with us and being her happy, joyful self.  The x-ray showed five pups growing and once born I will be contacting my applicants to see who is still interested in a pup.  Most of the pups should be black and tan phantoms but we won't know for sure until they are born!

Stay tuned.  :+)

SIX WEEKS AND LOVING THE OUTDOORS! Skye & Duckie Litter

Skye has returned to her guardians and they are so, so happy to have their 'little girl' back home with them. Skye and her family will be visiting again on Thursday, (our daughter is her guardian) and I am sure the pups will be happy to see her.  :+)

The pups are eating well three times a day and don't really miss their mom as the other girls see them daily, plus our grand-daughters, and our family from California go in the outside pen to play and pat them daily.

I hope all of you are enjoying this marvelous weather - I know we are!

Pics of the pups in their outside pen:

As you can see, there is plenty of entertainment here to stimulate investigation.  Nothing, however, is better for these pups then when our four grand-daughters come over to cuddle and play with them.  :+)

Pics for their six week old shots continue with the Fourth of July theme and are below:

Red Girl weighs 4 lbs. - Continues to be the biggest 'mini' in the litter.

Blue Boy is at 3 1/4 lbs. and seems to have a 'gentlemen-ly' personality.

Green Girl is at 3 1/2 lbs and holds her own with the group.

A 'mini-mini' Brown Boy weighs 2 1/2 lbs.  Sweet like a Whoopie Pie.  

Purple Girl is 3 lbs. and has a waggy, waggy tail!

A video on my Facebook page!

 I can't do videos but my sister in law was able to do one and put it on my FB page.  I hope the Skye litter owners will be able to go there to see it - wicked cute!!  :+)
