Tulip and Ruly Puppies Arrive: October 31, 2024

Tulip, surrounded by her newborn litter, rests peacefully after the arrival of the final puppy.

This Halloween, we welcomed 8 precious puppies. Six robust boys and three darling girls - including one angel girl - were born to proud mom Tulip. While we're feeling a bit like zombies today from the late-night arrivals, we're absolutely delighted with our new little ones.

Tulip's first stage of labour began in the wee hours of October 31st, and our first puppy made its appearance right around trick-or-treat time. Tulip has been the picture of a devoted mother, refusing to leave her puppies' side. The pups are all doing wonderfully, and we're excited to introduce you to them in the order of their birth.

Mr. Wizard, Purple collar

Mr. Pumpkin, Orange collar

Mr. Broomstick, Brown collar

Mr. Hocus Pocus, Blue collar

Miss Trick or Treat, Light blue collar

Mr. Devil, Red collar

Miss Ghost, White collar

PS: It was heartbreaking when the newborn puppy failed to show any signs of life. Despite our efforts to stimulate and resuscitate her, the excess fluid in her lungs prevented her from breathing. Adding to the difficulty, she had been delivered within a double amniotic sac, which delayed her emergence.

Stay tuned....

Costa Artabra Ruly, a multi-champion Golden Retriever, resides in Spain. This lovely example of the breed boasts a sound temperament and wonderful conformation, which is why we are delighted to bring his esteemed pedigree to Canada.

Storm & Tulip Puppies – Day One

They're Here! What a day it was! Tulip didn't skip a beat yesterday. She enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and dinner as if it were any other day... and then, at 6:30 p.m., she calmly welcomed her first puppy into the world. Making a grand entrance was Mr. Rocky Road (brown collar). Not long afterward, Mr. Maple Walnut (beige collar) arrived, and that's when things started to get a little more exciting! Our third arrival, Mr. Pistachio (green collar), decided the backyard lawn was the perfect place to make his debut while Tulip and I were out for an evening walk. Thankfully, I always carry a towel with me when we're close to whelping. I scooped up our newest little traveler, and Tulip and I made a speedy dash back to the house. The surprises didn't stop there! Miss Vanilla (white collar) made her entrance on the bedroom carpet while I was letting Tulip outside for a quick bathroom break. Shortly afterward, Mr. Moose Tracks (blac...

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...
