8 weeks today

Wow! I can't believe my puppies are already 8 weeks old. It has been an amazing journey with many bumps but mainly pure joy. These puppies still melt my heart every moment. They really have their own personalities now too. Let me speak about each one. 

Kadin(blue) - My big boy. He is a true love. He is very clumsy, sometimes a goof. He loves to sit in a lap. It's his comfort  zone. His owners Carol & KW will have some numb legs in the very near future. He will have plenty of play time ahead as they have a sweet ridgeback Kamilli that they rescued from our local rescue. They also have two Basenji's Kali & Kip. He is going to a home that has been waiting for him for a long time. We also are going to give showing a try. Can't wait to see him in the ring!  

Swayo(green) - Nick name is Kermit. He is a jumper & hopper. He loves to be in the mix but he's not a bully. He loves to sit in my lap also. I got pictures from his owners Jeremy & Jennifer of him chasing the lure coursing pole. I think we might have a boy to follow in his dads coursing steps. That I would love! His new family has two pretty little girls that will give him 100% attention and he deserves every minute. He also will give the show ring a try with his brother Kadin. We are in for some fun.

Uhuru(yellow) - She is fiesty. She is one of the first to jump on my leg wanting to be held. When I do hold her, she nibbles on my ears right away lol. She was the one who had the dermoid, so she's been brave & strong from the get go. Her lovely owners Barry, Angel, Brandon & Hailey are in for some exciting times. She will fit into their family like a glove. She has the cutest wrinkly face with big round eyes. Angel is also going to give training a try. She is willing to help me show, so even though Uhuru cannot be shown due to the dermoid, she can still practice. Angel has become a wonderful friend.    

Socks(teal) - She is a spit fire! Must be that white foot that gives her all that attitude : ) She is quite the adventurer. She is the one who climbs the little gate to get in the house from the backyard. She figures if she can do it, she will. I'll be in the kitchen or on the computer, look up & there she is, just hanging out lol. She also has one amazing ridge. Wow. My husband & son are very fond of her. Wade calls her mittens & Kellan calls her stars & moon.

Black boy - He is my mini Gane. He's just mellow & calm. Easy going boy. Nice square head like Gane also. He was born with the blackest hairs in his coat, but that has been changing to a lighter blond. We might call him Blondie like in the Good, the Bad & the Ugly, great movie by the way. He used to be my escape artist. He would get out of the ex-pen in seconds. He's been a good boy lately & hasn't escaped in quite awhile. He has a lazy crown. Some days that crown is there, some days not. Either way, he's a cool dog. His new owners are new to Colorado but they are going to be smitten by this boy in seconds!

Light Pink - She is a sweet, sweet girl. Very confident about whatever she is doing. She has a very clean, pretty face & what I call a milk belly. Lots of little white spots, which is too cute! She loves to be held & carried around. She was the first to bite my toe & make me bleed but I still adore her. She is one of the smallest but has a huge personality!

Dark Pink - She is another little Gane. Mellow & calm. Never in too much of a hurry unless she is eating but that's all of them. She is a nice red wheaten & self stacks beautifully. I think she is adorable.

Peach - She was the smallest at birth, we called her Tiny Tina but is now in the top three of the girls for the  biggest. She & Dark Pink are very similar. Peach loves to be held. She has a white spot on her chest that looks to me like a tooth. She is more reserved but more than willing to explore when she can. Her face reminds me of Sparta.

Red - Again, my second sweet, sweet girl. She loves to be held & I love to hold her. She is very gentle & will lightly hold my face & lick me. So sweet. She also is a self stacker & will make for a good show girl. She is pretty fearless for such a tiny package. She & light pink are the two smallest of the girls. Adore her.

Rainbow - She is on the go type of girl. She's ok being alone & exploring. She loves to chase that lure pole also, which I'm hoping means a future lure courser. She has huge beautiful eyes & such a clean pretty face.      

All of my puppies have been loved by so many & it warms my heart. We have had a ton of visitors to help play with & socialize these pups. They have been welcomed into this world with open hearts & for that, I am forever grateful. They are well rounded & happy! Once I know who is getting who, I will post an update. One of my girls is going to be a constant companion as a service dog to her wonderful owner named Miles. I am also very excited to say that two of these amazing girls are going to be little travelers. One going to beautiful Canada & one going to far away Puerto Rico on the beach. Guess I better get my passport. Never had a reason to before, but I sure do now
