Mango and Steele’s Litter

Mango and Steele’s Litter – Week Eight

Abby - Miss Cranberry "Regalgoldens Dream Lover"

How do they come up with this stuff? We witness a lot of antics with the puppies, but this one was rather innovative. Picture two puppies inside a plastic doggie crate with the door removed and another two puppies outside the crate, rolling it over as if it were a drum or a tumble drier. How on earth do they get everyone to buy into these pranks….especially the puppies inside the crate?!

This was another big week for the group as they went on car rides. There was some minor protesting at the outset, but remarkably the entire group settled within minutes and allowed the gentle rocking motion of the car to coddle them to sleep. One such outing was to the veterinary clinic where they received their check-ups, vaccines and micro-chips. Everyone was exceptionally well behaved, but we could swear we heard a collective sigh of relief as we pulled into the driveway at home.

No week is complete with lots of playtime and once again, the weather allowed for an abundance of outdoor time. The puppies had lots of fun chasing their mom around the yard hoping she’d keep still long enough to steal a snack, but Mango may just as well have been wearing an “Out of Order” sign. Some of the truly fun times were spent watching mayhem ensue when Maddie and Mango’s litters engaged in free-for-alls of epic proportions in the yard together. The puppies make new friends quite readily, so it really didn’t matter who they settled to play with and naturally all were willing.

It’s hard to believe how quickly the time has passed so we’re now firming up travel plans for some and getting them used to crates to help ease the stress of travelling. The puppies have been receiving their baths in preparation for the continuation of their journeys to their new homes. Since some have already needed baths previously due to their capers in the yard, this procedure went very smoothly, without complaint.

They are truly an adorable bunch and we have been treasuring our remaining days together with each and every one of them. So long, little ones. We wish you all the best in your journey, but most of all, we wish you love.

That concludes this edition of “Puppy Tales”. See you next litter!

A Big Week for Dutch and Fiona's Puppies!

Two weeks old today! Fiona's puppies are now two weeks old, and what an exciting stage this is! Every day brings new changes as the puppies grow stronger, more aware, and even more adorable (if that’s possible). At this age, the biggest milestone is that their eyes are now open! Though their vision is still a bit blurry, they’re beginning to see the world for the first time — mostly shapes, light, and movement. Over the next week, their eyesight will continue to sharpen, and they’ll start recognizing their littermates, their mom, and of course, us humans. The puppies are also becoming more mobile. Their wobbly little legs are gaining strength as they start to scoot, crawl, and even attempt to stand. It’s amazing to watch how quickly they go from tiny, sleepy newborns to curious explorers. Fiona is doing a wonderful job keeping everyone clean, warm, and fed. Although she doesn't have the milk supply we hoped for, we are supplementing by bottle feeding at least once daily. The p...

Three Weeks Old — A Big Milestone for Fiona and Dutch’s Puppies!

Today marks a special milestone for our puppies from Dutch and Fiona— they’re three weeks old! The puppies have begun eating on their own, a big step in their early development. Fiona is still nursing, but less frequently now, as the puppies transition to solid food. Because her milk supply was limited, we’ve been bottle-feeding to supplement their nutrition over the past few weeks. Now that they’re confidently eating on their own, it’s wonderful to see them thriving and growing stronger every day. At three weeks, puppies start showing more awareness of their surroundings. Their little legs are steadier, their eyes and ears are fully open, and their curiosity is blooming. They’re beginning to interact with one another — playful tumbles, wagging tails, and the sweetest attempts at barking! And as for Fiona… she’s quite happy with this new stage too — especially because she gets to enjoy all the leftovers once the puppies are done eating! Stay tuned.....
