Gone with the wind!

Most of the puppies are now in their forever homes, and, by all accounts, loving it!

Tigger, Zip, went first, to Chicago!  He lives with two other Border Terriers and Belgian Tervurens, and Jill and Ron.  Reports are good and he is well loved there, despite being a rascal!  He has a handsome new collar and thinks he is the grandest tiger in the jungle.  I couldn't figure out how to save the pictures of him and his new collar.  Computer challenged cantankerous curmudgeon....

Trekker, Lightening Bug, went next, on the 11th and made Randy and Kathy happy that the hole in their heart was again filled.  Trekker is playing with their two year old grandson on a regular basis and is, by their account, a fun, smart dog and a great playmate for the grandson.

Mia, Connie, went to live in Snohomish and is melding into that family beautifully.  Her buddy, Max, is happy to let her do anything to him, according to Laura.  Max is a Pip and Ono brother. 

Morse, now Angus, drove from here to Boise to live with his two new children and their parents.  These Border Terriers LOVE kids, and Angus lucked out with TWO!!!  Great kids who listen to their mother and dad and who were respectful of the puppies.  Angus has a loving family who also had lost an old Border Terrier and had holes in their hearts that needed filling too.  They got that!

Harper left Sunday and is in Colorado and happy with her new family including a cute BT named Stella.

Tate, Drew, is still with me and is doing very well with housebreaking and playing.  He was a bit reserved before, but has blossomed since his siblings left.  Interesting to me how they go through stages.  He wasn't fearful, just cautious.  The entire litter was more on the cautious side than my other litters have been.  Something in the water....





Until the next word splurge!

Home day minus ONE

Good for the puppies, sad for the cantankerous curmudgeon....  Tomorrow the puppies, except for one, go to their forever homes.
Debby flies in today from Colorado to take the Dame away, and tomorrow Kathy and Randy take Lightening/Trekker, Laura takes the QT, and Lori and family take Morse.
The pups have been super good and stay in a crate without eliminating and are good about going in the yard to do their "business" and to have FUN with the big dogs.
We had good luck in Canada and Ono finished his championship there quickly, so we came home a bit early.

Today the kids came to the office to play with the babies.  Kids and pups had fun.
