Stella's puppies have been allocated!

These puppies have been allocated! We are so excited for our puppies and our families! We can’t wait to introduce them to one another over the weekend and see all the happy tears. This is our favorite part because we watch the bond of a lifetime begin to form the moment each family is holding their puppy. Stay tuned for al the happy photos to come!

Stella's puppies are six weeks old!

How did that happen?! We have had such a blast with these babies and love watching them bounce around happily with the kiddos for longer and longer play sessions each day!

They sure are big these days. They have really grown into their personalities and by this time next week, we will be temperament testing them to find out which puppy matches best with each of their family’s!

Taking pictures is a little tougher these days as they like to tackle the phone and play more during the photoshoot, but it’s so darn cute to watch!

Stella's puppies are five weeks old!

Happy Five Weeks Old to our Stella puppies!

They are officially old enough to romp around the house regularly! They tucker out after about 30 minutes and then fall asleep wherever they are sitting, which is honestly the cutest thing ever. So the kids like to have big ol’ romp sessions a few times a day with the puppies!

This is when it gets really fun for us! They are coming more into their personalities more each day and we are taking notes as we go, which helps us continue working on development as we gear up temperament testing in a couple of weeks.

Stella's puppies are four weeks old!

The four week mark is a funny stage for puppies. Think Grade 2 photo in school. They are growing a ton, but their chubby bodies are a bit bigger than their legs and head and they are beginning to bounce around a whole lot more these days.

They are nailing the potty training and mostly make it there to take care of business. And they are LOVING their softened kibble.

Momma is getting a lot more time to herself as well, but she is always close by for a cuddle and to top them off with milk when they ask for it.

They are starting to come more into their personalities as well, are more engaged in play with us, and absolutely love cuddles with the kids.

Stella’s guardian family came out to see her tonight and she couldn’t have been more excited to see them! We honestly couldn’t give so many wonderful family’s puppies without our guardian homes and are beyond grateful for them loving our doggies so much.

Stella's puppies are three weeks old!

We’ve made it to the three-week milestone! And this is when it starts getting really fun. They are eyes wide open and up on all fours a lot more often these days! They will be introduced to softened kibble, fresh water, and even litter box training this week!

And while they will miss the litter box a few more times than they make it, this is a huge step in development for these little puppies! By this time next week, they’ll be way more confident in their step and will be able to give momma’s milk bar a break a little more often.

Stella is getting a little more “me time” this week as the feedings get a little further in between and we think she’s earned it! These puppies are HUGE and chunky already.

Stella's puppies are two weeks old!

These babies are slowly opening their eyes as we grow right into our two-week milestone! Not only is this a big week because they are seeing a whole new site and opening up a new sensory milestone, but they are also toddling around pretty good these days. Mostly to just make a puppy pile or find momma Stella, but all in all, they stay pretty happy!

They are still mostly eating, sleeping, and pooping, but also are spending a little time in the arms of Oliver and Margot, who are whispering sweet little oohs and awes in their ears.

Stella's puppies are one week old!

Happy Halloween dear families! We’ve been cuddling lots here lately! There is a lot of growing that happens in the first couple of weeks, so the puppies spend most of their time sleeping, cuddling, and eating.

Stella is just a wonderful momma and is always close by, cleaning up her puppies and ensuring that they are happy with full bellies.

I apologize for the delay in this update, as I have been dealing with an ear infection and am trying to rest almost as much as these puppies!
