25 Days Old

Here are a few pictures taken on Thursday. They were 25 days old then. They continue to grow and thrive. The puppies can go to their new homes the weekend of July 19/20. There are many things to do before then. They will be swabbed for their DNA testing tomorrow! I will send the samples to U.C. Davis in California. The turn around time is usually about 1.5 weeks. That will be a very long week and a half for me. On July 15th the pups will have their BAER hearing test and their first shots and also their Veterinarian Health Certification. I know that many of you are anxious to choose your puppy but they are just starting to develop their personalities. Please try to be patient a bit longer. This is very hard for me too. I want to make sure these sweet babies go to the right homes and their personality is more important than their looks in making that happen. Many of you want to go see them and I will let that up to Dinah.

Star thinks toes taste pretty good. That cute liver boy sitting behind her is Sea Bee.
He has stolen my heart already! Fingers are crossed that he is homozygous LUA and hears in both ears!

I predict that Dee Day who is the black girl with the most spots on her face does not carry the LUA gene. She has intense pigmentation and will be a knock out when she grows up.

That is Glory playing with the green bone.
