Regalgoldens Golden Retrievers

  Five Weeks of Fun and Growing Independence! Time is flying by, and I don't want to jinx it, but this has been one of the easiest litters so far. The puppies are thriving, eating exceptionally well, sleeping soundly, and, as many of you have seen on our 24/7 puppy camera, spending their waking hours playing, wrestling, and engaging together. Their little personalities will become more apparent over the next couple of weeks, and it's so much fun watching them interact with one another. Tulip continues to be an outstanding mother. While she still checks on them frequently, nurses them, and keeps a watchful eye over the litter, she's also enjoying a little more well-deserved time to herself. She has been spending more time with her adult pack. One of the highlights this week was a special visit from Dad, Storm. Tulip remained her protective self, carefully supervising the introduction, but she allowed Storm to quietly peek in on his youngsters. Storm was not invited to visi...

Eyes Open, Adventures Begin! It's hard to believe our  "Traveler's Litter"  is already two weeks old! The past week has been full of exciting milestones—and, as we've quickly discovered, a few of these little adventurers are already living up to their soon to be registered names. Mr. Rocky Road  (brown collar) and  Mr. Pistachio  (green collar) have decided that life inside the whelping box simply isn't adventurous enough! Taking advantage of the moments when Tulip was resting against the entrance, both boys managed to climb over Mom in search of what lay beyond their tiny world. Thankfully, their loud protests quickly alerted us, and we came running to rescue our little explorers and reunite them with their siblings. It seems their adventurous spirits are already beginning to shine! This week also marked one of the biggest developmental milestones, the puppies have officially opened their eyes! Although their vision is still somewhat blurry, they're begin...

  One Week Old Already! It's hard to believe an entire week has already flown by! Tulip and her seven little puppies are all doing wonderfully, and each day brings exciting new milestones. We've now set up our 24/7 puppy camera, allowing all of our puppy families to follow their journey and watch these little ones grow from the comfort of home. It's amazing how much changes in just a few days! Tulip continues to be an exceptional mother. She spends most of her day devoted to her puppies—feeding, cleaning, and cuddling them—but she's also beginning to enjoy a little well-deserved "mom time" outside the whelping box. As the puppies become more content between feedings, Tulip is taking short breaks to stretch her legs, enjoy a meal, and recharge before heading back to her little family. To support milk production, Tulip's food intake has increased dramatically. She is now eating approximately 60 ounces of fresh food each day, divided into four meals. Her body...

  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...
