First Trip Outside!



The babies had their first trip outside and had a blast. They discovered a whole new world outside their whelping pen. This litter reminds us so much of the litter Grace is from, the Foxy/Blue litter. Yellow girl looks like Remy, Burgandy girl looks like Precious, Black boy looks like Shilo, and Periwinkle is a feminine version of Smokey. Cream girl will resemble her grandsire, Blue.
Visit this link and see for yourselves.

We continue to see these babies developing into exactly what we were breeding for: puppies with wide heads, tiny ears, short broad muzzles, beautiful stops, and underjaw! Generally, we are seeing broad chests, bodies, and mostly good tails. Their personalities are equal to Grace's first litter: loving and cuddly, happy and bouncy, fun puppies all around. These babies are going to grow into absolutely stunning adults. Lil' Hope, although our smallest girl, is still well balanced and such fun. The pups are already paper trained, and growing up much too fast.
Please contact us for more information on this fabulous litter!

We Are 4 1/2 weeks old now!



We are now 4 1/2 weeks old and are starting to look like real puppies! We bark and play and pull each others ears and tails. We are eating like little piggies, we love feeding time! Mom stops in and visits us from time to time.

Update:
We are seeing some beautiful heads on most of the pups, and beautiful small ears. Bodies are broad, most have adequate bone for their age, and for the most part, good tails. Pictures just don't do them justice. At 4 1/2 weeks, here are our observations. Please remember these babies can change dramatically over the next 3 weeks. It is impossible to tell at this point who will be companion quality and who will be breeding quality.
Green boy: Stunning, beautiful head, great underjaw, all over well balanced, our pick for males.
Yellow girl: This girl is the biggest, a happy go lucky personality, and she reminds of so much of Grace's sister, Remy at BearPaw Shilohs.
Periwinkle girl: She is as broad as the boys, has a beautiful head and good pigment. She is one of our pick girls. She is a dark sable
Black Boy: Such a sweetie, although a little smaller than the other boys, he will catch up. He has a beautiful head, and is going to be a very dark dual.
Burgandy girl: Our "little Foxy", this girl reminds us so much of her grandma. She is going to be a striking red-brown sable.
Cream girl: This girl looks as if she is going to have it all, just like her sire, Renegade. At 4 1/2 weeks, she has a perfect head, is overall well balanced and has that perfect saber tail. A black/red dual, she is a keeper!
Orange boy: He is our teddy bear, such a cuddler. He is also going to resemble his grandma Foxy in coloring, a red-brown sable.
Navy boy: He is a big beautiful boy, with that rare masky look to his face, a throw back from the small % of malamute blood found in the Shiloh.
Purple girl: Lil' Hope, the runt of the litter is still the smallest, about 1/2 the size of all the other babies. Although very healthy and quite spunky, we do not expect her to make full shiloh-size. She will be needing a very special home.

Babies first meal!





Our first meal! In the first picture, we are lined up around the dish like a pinwheel!
In the middle picture, we are enjoying our food, even to the point of wearing some! We will need a bath when we are done.
In the third picture, you can see we cleaned it up! In fact Green boy took over the pan, insisting it was all his. Hope, the Purple girl couldn't even squeeze in.
Mom needs to explain to him about sharing.
