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 (black collar) arrived with a textbook, uneventful delivery.

Next came Miss Lemon Sorbet (yellow collar), who quietly slipped into the world on the bedroom carpet with hardly any fanfare at all.

Saving the most memorable entrance for last was Miss Bubble Gum (pink collar). She seemed perfectly content taking her time, so we decided it was best to head to the veterinarian for a quick check. However, she had other plans! Before we could even make it there, I had to pull over at the Esso gas station to deliver our final puppy from the back seat of the car. Now that's an unforgettable entrance!

After all the unexpected delivery locations, we've decided this will forever be known as our "Traveler's Litter." Their registered call names may reflect their adventurous beginnings, while their collar colours are inspired by everyone's favourite summertime treat—ice cream flavours!

We're thrilled to welcome four handsome boys and three beautiful girls into the world on Friday, June 26.

Most importantly, Tulip is doing wonderfully and has settled into motherhood beautifully as always. The puppies are healthy, nursing well, and keeping Mom very busy.

Our hearts are overflowing as we begin this exciting new chapter. We can't wait to share their journey with you over the coming weeks.

Stay tuned ...

Jazz & Olivia Pups – 7 Week Birthday

Another Fabulous Week! What a week it’s been! The weather has been beautiful, and the pups have enjoyed every minute of it outdoors. Their confidence is blossoming, and they’re full of fun and personality. Momma Olivia remains completely devoted to her babies. She’s never far from them and even whimpers when separated for any length of time. Her maternal instincts are truly heartwarming. This week’s standout moment? Miss Magenta decided to show off her stealth skills—not once, but twice—by sneaking up and stealing my iPhone straight from my pocket! To make it even more hilarious, my phone is also magenta, so seeing her prance around proudly with a matching accessory in her mouth had us laughing out loud. We’re seeing more and more of the pups’ personalities shine through. They are playful, confident, and curious. After each meal, when the door of their whelping box opens to the backyard, they march out one by one like little soldiers. After about 20 minutes of play, they line up at the...

Jazz and Olivia’s Puppies – 6 Weeks Old Today!

 Jazz and Olivia’s Puppies – 6 Weeks Old Today!  Time is flying! It’s such a joy to watch these puppies grow and thrive — and their outdoor adventures are becoming more lively by the day. With the weather finally cooling down, the pups are enjoying more frequent time outside, and we've even set up a mini obstacle course to help build their confidence as they explore new sights, sounds, and textures. They’ve quickly caught on to our routine: lunch, then playtime! Like clockwork, they start to cry out in chorus — a little lunchtime symphony — knowing what’s coming next. As soon as we open the French doors to their private yard and unlatch the whelping box, they march right out, ready for action. The only challenge now? Getting them back inside! It’s become a full-on game of “Catch Me If You Can!” The pups are now weighing in at a healthy 10 to 12 pounds and have tremendous appetites. Each one is enjoying about 7 oz per meal, totalling approximately 21 oz of food daily. Their die...
