Tink update

She is still with us and her weight is hovering around 7.0 ounces.  Since she got down to less than 3 ounces, we think this is "something" anyway!  She does walk a tiny bit on the floor with the others in the kitchen.  She is a phenomenon.

Jaba is his mother all over again.  Kathleen and I both love his HAPPY personality and his gusto for life and his surroundings.  Always curious and busy.  He grabs my pants' legs and tugs for as long as he can and loves it.  Hannah would love him as that is her criterion for choosing a driven puppy.

Renwick makes his show debut at the Hurricane Ridge Kennel Club shows.  Great puppy is doing tracking, S & R, NoseWork, obedience, and who knows what else.  Cherie is a go-getter and LOVES her dog to pieces.  She even drove up one evening from east of Chehalis? for a grooming lesson.  She does a good job even before that!

Nosey is the champion for "getting" the litter box concept.  Amazing!  Jaba is learning.  I'm really looking forward to this adventure!

So, where are the promised pictures?!!!!  If they appear, they will be taken today.  Can't seem to catch up, even though Kathleen is the one who feeds Tink around the clock!  I can't imagine what keeps me from getting more done!

Roller Coaster still going strong

Tink is still with us.  Yesterday Kathleen, who took her home with her to Bellingham for the weekend, thought she was a goner as she wouldn't eat!  Today she is doing well again and has weighed in at 7 oz.  Hasn't quite gotten to double her birth weight, but is approaching it.  Is getting up on all fours and walking.  Interesting puppy.  Driving us wild with her ups and downs.  Wish we could figure her out.

The rest of the crew is doing well.  I am snuggling them and stealing all of the puppy breath that I can.  I DO wish that they could bottle that as perfume.  I'd have men running after me all the time!!!












Will take some pictures of the babies tonight and get them on tomorrow.  They are super sweet and loving.  Working on the litter training!

Curmudgeons rule!!!
