Thank you to Julie and David for what they have done with Cowboy!  They were able to go home with two very nice Rosettes!

Puppy Bono was nice enough to pose for me.  He was all elbows, knees and ears but I was able to save three photos of this pony boy.

They are always playing and truly enjoy hanging out together.

Miss Brooklyn is owned by Jay and Kristen who have just welcomed their first baby into the family. Brooklyn will be with us for a few months. We’ll be taking a good hard looking at breeding this beautiful bitch who looks a lot like her daddy Socks. Enjoy!

He’s grown into a nice pup with the sweetest temperament – although, he himself will admit that he is spoiled. ENJOY!

They end up covered in spit, tired and happy. What else is there for puppies to do?

I feel like a brand new puppy owner. Seriously.

This puppy has been able to have the run of the house.  We’ve changed our rules for this one. We’re allowing the other adults {and Vesper} to patrol the puppies boundaries. It’s funny how the adults know what is allowed and what is not allowed in the house.  And they have been keeping an eye on him.  Vesper, who is only 9 months herself, is starting to understand she cannot rough house as much with the wee bairn as she could with the others.

And I continue to shoot and process photos from Day One of P.E.

Ireland du Hameau Saint Blaise, also known as Bono, puttered around, picked up pine cones, chewed on some grass, and ran around like a crazy dog. He did stay still long enough for me to shoot some pics.

Our thanks and gratitude to Catherine Purnelle for presenting this puppy to our family.

Call name?  BONO as in Bono from U2.

Still don’t know who I’m talking about?  Google it!

Anyways, we’ll be inundating you with the “first” pics but I thought I’d share some that I have been keeping under my hat.  This is the “I” litter at about five weeks.
