1 more sleep before the beaniebears start going to their new homes.
Today the puppies are with me at work getting their exams, vaccinations, fecal check, deworming and microchip. Friday 3 puppies will be going to their new homes. Forrest Stump, green boy and orange girl will be going first.

The pictures below were taken by my friend Kathy when she came and played with the puppies last weekend.
So many have asked how can I send them to their new homes, will I be sad? Of course I will be sad, this was a work of art in progress from the planning of the breeding to the breeding to the whelp to the raising of these 9 lovely pups. The first three weeks is easy, just watching the little ones in the whelping box. The next two weeks aren’t so bad learning them how to eat real food and get used to things. The next week isn’t too bad either as they are learning how to go outside and get used to outside items. The next week which is 7 weeks they start to venture more, pee and poop more have to do more cleaning as the more they eat the more they poop. Going into the 8th week is by far the most hectic. They are eating more so more and more pee and poop, they like to play with everything so their litter box fillings get flung all over the place, they are more feisty and want to play fight with each other so the expen is pushed all over from them pushing it. Their bedding is spread all over the place because they feel the need to play with it all, they start playing in their water and spilling it. When outside they are so confident they venture longer and longer away and with 9 of them it is hard to keep a eye on all of them. They have little teeth that shark you and pull on your pants while your walking and they want to be by you so they are all under foot. By this time I love them up and I look at them and tell them it is time for them to go to their new homes so their new people can love on them and give them all the attention that they need and deserve. Of course it melts my heart when all the little ones look up to me to guide them in their learning but I am just the beginning person to teach them the beginning and it is up to the new families to teach them the middle and end. Will I be sad, yes I will but when your a breeder you know you can’t keep them all if you did then there would be some really lonely people out there and I would get committed for being a hoarder.
Good luck my lovely’s may your new adventures be as bright as the brightness you have shown me these past 8 weeks.
We are joining Linda at 2browndawgs and Jodi at Heart Like A Dog for this great blog hop.
Makes it a bit easier when you are going to be owned by one of them.
You did great by the puppies, JoAnn
Hugs
They’re gorgeous!
Bitter Sweet!
Good luck in your new furmilies little brown dawgs, have a wonderful time with the people who love you to the moon and back :o) Maybe I will meet the pup what goes to UK once in the furs?
So much fun!! Can’t wait to see the girl you keep grow.
Pop one in the post for me 🙂 I love love the babies xx
Hi mollie, thank you for stopping by, I’ll send one your way.
You do such an incredible job with your puppies. They are all so freakin’ cute! I’ll miss them too! LOL!
As much as you’re sad, you must also breathe just a little sigh of relief after all that work! I remember when we had three puppies at once; it was a lot of work and they sometimes had us pulling our hair out! It also has to help that you know they are all going to good homes where they will be very loved and well cared for.
I do breath a sigh of relieve, like now that I am down to three, it’s much easier.
It would be sad to see them go, but most breeders do tell me at the age they can leave, they are so much work, they don’t mind letting them go. I wonder where in the UK the one is going? Maybe close to my birth home?
one is going to west salem in England. She has one of my pups that is gamblers littermate.
such precious babies! (((hugs))) DakotasDen
Oh, bittersweet! They’re all so cute.
Those are some pudgy pups. 🙂 I cannot believe it is time for them to go already. I will miss seeing them everyday. Thanks for joining the hop!
Aww…I’ll miss seeing them on the blog, but I know these little scamps will love their new homes and families!
Good luck, sweet pups!
They are gorgeous! I hope they all have wonderfully happy lives with their new families and can’t wait to hear about which puppy ends up as yours 🙂
They are all adorable. You did a great job teaching them the beginning. I’m sure trying to keep track of 9 puppies outside is really a challenge. We will miss seeing them and what they are up to, i love puppies from birth to new home. Little ones i hope thrre is a lot of love waiting at your new homes:)
You saif you had one more to sell, i just wondered if Chessies and Newf are compatible?
Chessies and Newf’s are compatible,,,,,I have one puppy buyer who had a newf when he bought one of my puppies, they got along great it was a older newf then it died and they got a boy puppy newf and they get along great!
Gonna miss those adorable little pups. Please give each one an ear scratch from Sam and me. <3
I will, scratch, scratch. 🙂
They are the cutest! I don’t know how you choose which one to keep!
it was hard but from day one two have stood out to me so I’m keeping them
Hi Y’all!
I know you see some of the previous litters at hunt tests and shows. Do any of the others keep in touch?
My Human makes sure my breeder gets a holiday greeting card from me with current pics of me every year.
Y’all come on by,
Hawk aka BrownDog
Hi Hawk, most of the buyers keep in touch through facebook, one always emails me from time to time. There are a few that I don’t have contact with. I just love seeing pictures and the friendships that have come from a puppy.
