| NOTE ** Because I am still a baby, I will only be placed in a home where
someone is home often, such as retired, work at home, work opposite shifts, stay at home parents, etc. UPDATE 2/121/09 - We took Donner home Jan 18th. Introducing him to the kitten and my 2 girls was a beautiful sight! At first the kitten put Donner in his place, but it wasn't long before he took over. Her toys, her favorite sleeping spot and attention from us! Thats ok because they now share the sleeping spot(not for long as Donner gets bigger)but it is so cute to see them sleep together. And our love for both of them is shared. My girls can't stop playing with them, so they get lots of attention and love. This weekend was nice so we were able to take Donner out and enjoy the backyard. He is so amazed at all the sights and sounds and smells. It is like watching a toddler examine the big new world! So I think he is adjusting ok to his forever home and family!!! 1/18/09 - Donner has been adopted! 12/30/08 - The Reindeer Gang turned six weeks old yesterday :) and so, it was time for their first set of shots. First we had to figure out how to transport them to the vet-between Liz and I, we only had a Camry available, no SUV lol soooooo with approximately 65+ pounds of puppies to move, we had our hands full, literally :)) We managed, using a small crate, a small vari-kennel and Aunt Dee's arms :)))) The babies were soooooo scared, they literally shook the carriers, but they made it through their ordeal with flying colors and got clean bills of health and their first set of puppy shots. I'm not sure how Aunt Liz is feeling this morning-she carried a crate full of babies from the car! and her back may be suffering a bit today. I am not sure just HOW she managed to do that-a HUGE thank you to Aunt Liz for all of her help-I could not have done any of this without her-from start to finish!! Here is the latest weigh-in: Cupid 7lbs 6oz Vixen 7lbs 5oz Prancer 8lbs 7oz Dasher 8lbs 5oz Dancer 7lbs 12oz Comet 8lbs 8oz Donner 8lbs 6oz and the big guy Blitzen 9lbs 4oz These are WONDERFUL puppies who are already responding to a "shhhhh" or a "no" and even, occasionally, when I say "come, come, come". They are getting so much from their mom who continues to be a wonderful mother, instructing her brood in just how to be dogs-and how to behave appropriately in the world. She monitors them and intervenes when it is necessary, letting them know when they are getting too rough with one another. It's really amazing to watch her school these babies and how quickly they learn-and they look to her for guidance. You can watch them watching HER and reading her signals. I remain totally fascinated by it all. Dogs are truly amazing creatures. 12/22/08 - I got to go visit and play with the Reindeer Gang today... OMG they are like little doggies now. sweet little baby dogs. The individual personalities are coming through. I'd call them from one end of the whelping box...... calling PUP, pup, pup, pup, pup. They come running and drape their paws over one section... looking for the attention......ADORABLE :) All just so sweet........... I got to pet everyone, hold a few, smooch a few. I got my share of puppy breath for sure. They are happy and healthy babies.. Their coats feel like a million bucks :)) Liz 12/13/08 - It was time for the pups to have their second scheduled worming, so we had to do a weigh-in and here are the results lol These little guys really are growing like weeds. Dasher: 6lbs 9oz Dancer 6lbs 9oz Prancer 6lbs 14oz Vixen 6lbs 10oz Comet 6lbs 11oz Cupid 6lbs even Donner 7lbs even and the big guy Blitzen 7lbs 6oz |
