Mardi & Killian litter born June 25, 2007

 

We're Here!!!

Watch for pictures that will be posted weekly.

We arrived by c-section at 10:45 AM on June 25, 2007 after Mom worked all night trying to whelp us naturally.  We are all strong and healthy, 6 boys and 1 girl!

Update: Sadly, when the pups were about 30 hours old, Mr. Black began having breathing problems and faded very fast.  He died in Dan's hands at 5:00 PM on 6/26/07.  I suspect he was the little guy that was caught crosswise in the birth canal for so long and had simply endured too much stress.  The remaining 6 puppies are strong and growing.

Many thanks to Dr. Rice and Dr. Winter and the wonderful team at the Stillwater Veterinary Clinic in Stillwater, Minnesota!

 

Mr. Blue

Mr. Blue is 11 weeks old and still searching for his very own family.  He loves people and would adapt easily to a family with or without children.  He is funny, curious, cuddly and very smart.  He is being placed as a pet/companion puppy but would do very well in agility, rally or obedience.  (posted 9/13/07)

He still gets separate time with mama since he was the small one,

but he's very strong and was one of the first up and walking!
