Moon's February Litter

Moon

Moon is a real beauty! Right now she is the biggest of our girls (perfect if you are wanting a sporting or adventure pal!) and, oh my, her coat of fur!! It's stunning! So thick ~ and WAVY! She has a perfect luxurious beach curl. If you want a snuggle baby, look no further! Moon is also extremely active and keeping up with her is so much fun! She loves fetch, toys, and wrestling with her Milky Way buddies. Orion is her best friend and they get into all kinds of mischief. ;)

Week 6

03/19/22 (Posted 03/20/22)

I uploaded these yesterday, but the website would not publish for some reason.

Linked below is an article with the complete temperament test for you to be able to view what the numbers below mean. As always, our pups have been very stable and typical for smart Retrievers! We continue to be proud of these sweet babies on behaving so well during their temperament tests. Also, keep in mind some scores are influenced by the moment. This is just a guide to how we believe their personalities will unfold.

Week 5

03/13/22

I can't believe how fast this litter is growing! They are the cutest things right now. This is my very favorite age, where they start getting extra playful but are still so baby-ish and sweet. This week I will be reaching out for everyone's emails (if I don't already have them) to send out information for Choosing Day next week. Enjoy these sweet photos!

Gobber

This sweet little guy is beginning to be playful. He's curious and loves to snuggle, too!

Lollipop

This is the gentlest little girl! She loves snuggling Stella and is starting to be curious of her surroundings. She LOVES eating and her face is always covering in it.

M&M

This beautiful boy is such a sweetheart! He's snuggly and loves his toys!!

Milky Way

We are considering keeping this boy. He's playful and spunky!

Skittles

This absolute darling is a stinker! He loves playing and toys and running around!

Snickers

This sweetheart is still figuring himself out! He loves to snuggle and loves his food!

Week 4

03/06/22

Week 4 is here! The puppies are doing soooo well. They are walking, playing, and exploring like crazy! They love the kids and hanging out and are starting to get the very littlest of personalities!
Individual photos will be up tomorrow morning. I (Cait) am home alone with all three kids this weekend and after attempting photos twice with my crazy toddlers and teething baby, it's just not going to happen. Tomorrow the bigger kids are in daycare, so I'll get photos during Kalliope's mid-morning nap! For now, enjoy their sweet names! From now on, pups are in alphabetical order instead of by gender. Stay tuned and I will get these up ASAP tomorrow!

Week 3

02/27/22

Look at these little beauties! Pups are motoring around, barking, starting to play, and just loving life! They still are the chunkiest babies and it's just adorable. I'm in love with their sweet faces and I can't wait to watch them continue to grow! We are beginning our desensitization program this week and I already know they are going to do so well! This includes introduction to vacuums, loud TV, pressure points like tugging on their tails, ears, and paws, and their first bath!

Week 2

These babies are soooo chunky! Moon is filling them up on pure cream! Eyes are open (so cute!) and this week they will get their first de-wormer. They are starting to find their voices and motor around their pen, too! We are beginning to allow our toddlers to hold them and their exposure to sounds/textures/experiences will begin next week!

Week 1

The puppies are doing so well! They are getting sooo chunky already and if you follow my Facebook page, you will have seen the cutest milk drunk puppy video! Moon is recovering very well from birth, although she is our most anxious newborn mother, so we are keeping our toddlers and kitties at bay for the next few weeks. The puppies have gone from pink to black in the last few days and we have started neurological stimulation as well! We have three males available at this time.

Moon and puppies are all doing very well! She had 6 beautiful babies, 1 female and 5 males. The puppies are chunky and this is our favorite size of litter, both for the babies themselves and for the mama's sake. We are so proud of Moon and excited to watch them grow! Enjoy these sweet photos of their little pink noses and paws!
