Storm & Tulip's Pups Are 7 Weeks Old!

Seven weeks already! These pups have spent so much time enjoying the great outdoors that they've decided being inside when the weather doesn't cooperate is highly overrated! They absolutely love running, exploring, and playing in the yard, and they're making the most of every opportunity to be outside.

Momma Tulip is still completely devoted to her babies, perhaps a little too devoted! The milk bar has been getting closed more frequently because these little ones would happily skip their main course and head straight for dessert. They're currently eating approximately 5 oz. per meal for the girls and 6 oz. for the boys, with Tulip still providing a little extra nourishment on the side.

All seven pups are now weighing between 13 and 15 lbs. They're burning off plenty of energy racing around the yard, wrestling with one another, and discovering something new around every corner. Despite all that activity, they remain a remarkably calm and soft-natured bunch.

As they continue to mature, socialization and puppy classes will be especially important in helping them build confidence, develop good life skills, and become well-rounded young Goldens.

And then there's Miss Bubble Gum! This week I walked into the living room to discover her happily wandering around, having somehow escaped from her sleeping quarters. Apparently, she decided it was time to start exploring the rest of the house on her own terms!

I guess the "Traveler Litter" name really does suit this bunch—these little explorers are already proving they have places to go and things to see!

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...

Dutch and Fiona’s Puppies – One Week Old Today!

Happy One Week Birthday! Fiona’s journey into motherhood has been nothing short of remarkable. After a long and exhausting 14-hour labour , she safely delivered 12 beautiful puppies . As the final hours stretched on, both Fiona and I were completely spent. Sadly, the last few pups became our little angels due to the extended delivery time. Despite every effort — providing oxygen and stimulation — we were unable to revive them. As heartbreaking as that was, we are deeply grateful to have nine strong, healthy puppies now thriving under Fiona’s care. This first week has brought its share of challenges. Fiona developed metritis , a uterine infection likely caused by the strain of her prolonged labour. She has been on antibiotics and is recovering well, but the infection initially impacted her milk production. To ensure the pups received the nutrition they needed, we began bottle feeding every 2–3 hours around the clock . Thankfully, the puppies ada...
