GORGEOUS!

The puppies are growing up!  They still take long naps but are always ready to be held by the kids or play with each other.  They are learning to paw and wrestle.  We've seen a few scratch their sides with their back leg.  The younger girls of the family pretend they are dolls and wrap them up and sing sweet nothings in their ears.  Ripley enjoys the help, we think!

 

All the puppies have new owners!  Peggy, whose new name is Aspen, is going the farthest.  Her new home is Denver!  She is pictured below.  Two pups will make their way to Minnesota, a few will go to homes in the Milwaukee area, one to Waunakee, and then one stays in Elm Grove to live with a family down the street.  It has been fun to see the new families interact with the pups.  There will be a few tears here as we say good-bye in a few weeks.

 

Today's purchases were 11 dog toys, a big bag of puppy food, and 11 little bowls!  We will start the pups on a mash of food this week.  Yum!  Ripley gets to go to the groomer tomorrow so she will feel light and carefree after her buzz!  We can't wait!
