Lola and Jasper's Puppies Have Arrived!!

We are happy and a little surprised to announce Lola and Jasper's cream and apricot litter has arrived! I can't quite explain the feeling in the room as Lola delivered one gorgeous, tiny LIGHT colored puppy after another. We were expecting maybe 1 light colored puppy, 1 chocolate, but mostly black puppies from this litter. You can imagine our surprise! These little white chocolate and butterscotch babies are so precious and sweet! Mom and puppies are doing great and are all healthy. Lola is a very devoted mom and it is so heartwarming to see her nestle in with her puppies and just curl them up to her. This is probably one of our favorite times with the puppies! Below are pictures. Enjoy!

Our Wednesday Morning

Good Morning everyone! Just wanted to share a few pictures of the doggies this morning. It was definitely a cool one here, about 25 so we are trying to stay cozy and warm inside. I couldn't resist taking a picture of Victoria and how she looked as she was napping. Yes, those are my curtains on her head.
The next picture is of Lola. I think it's an even better tummy shot than the one I posted the other day. Which just goes to show, that sometimes you get rewarded for spontaneity. Doesn't she look all spoiled and pampered, resting on the couch?
Finally we have Q. He is just lounging around this morning. He was following me around with one of his favorite stuffed toys, but has decided to take some much needed rest on the kitchen floor!

Well this is what our Wednesday morning looks like. What are you doing today?

Two More Weeks!

We are so excited here are Mountain Creek, as Lola's due date approaches! The tentative date is February 18th. That will be our belated Valentine's Day present! We can see Lola's belly growing, and we can't wait until we can feel the puppies kicking. Lola is very focused on food right now. She wants to make sure her developing babies get enough nourishment. We have beefed up her usual dry "Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul" dog food with some wet food and some home cooked goodies for added nutrients. She loves this star treatment!! We added a past litter page for Lola on our website. Be sure to check it out as her last litter was awesome!! She and Jasper make amazing puppies! While we have no new puppy pictures to add for a few weeks, please enjoy the picture of Lola showing her growing tummy!
