My puppies are doing so very well that they are going to totally break my heart when they leave – so I can only stress the importance of keeping in touch with me (whichever method you prefer – email/phone/text/posting of photos in snail mail or facebook).  As a breeder feedback is so important – good or bad – as then I can address any problems anyone maybe having OR change something Im doing.

I do sit and reflect the importance of my puppies in the right homes and I am sure all of my buyers are wholly aware of how much the pups mean to me and how I am willing to receive a text or phonecall in the middle of the night if it means to prevent worry.  A problem shared is always a problem halved.  Patricularly if you are feeling upset or anxious.

Anyway – enough of the soppy stuff, I am feeling a bit emotional about my pups and as in a short three weeks times you will all be getting to enjoy your new members of your family.

I have just updated the photo gallery (I have been having snags with my computer so a few were missed).

Here are a few videos for you to enjoy

Puppies learning the piano

Naughty Puppy – take heed – your belongings are at risk – if the puppy can reach it then it can be damaged – so anything that gets spoilt is YOUR fault and not the puppies.

Cute yellows – again take note of how the puppies are playing with feet.  Their teeth are sharp. This is 100% normal behaviour!

Flying pink (running)

We have had a busy day at Marchstone.  The puppies turn 5 weeks old today.  They have been wormed.  We also continue with the toilet training, the weather is hindering a little!

We wanted to do something to acknowledge our thoughts on Cecil being hunted and killed to become a trophy.  An abhorrent thing to do.  So we had some Lion King moments.

Scene of the crime : Whelping box

Target of the Crime : Yellow Puppies

Question : why have the yellow puppies been picked on?

Evidence :

Conclusion

These puppies are at risk from being kissed to death BUT who is the perpetrator and will they be caught?

This morning we had quite a result with one of the puppies – Mr Orange was trying to get out of the box and seemed a bit frantic about it.  He then circled around the pen rather quickly so I whisked him outside and he did a poo! What a good poo as he gave clear indications he wanted to get out of the box!  Not even five weeks old!!! Im very impressed with them!

The puppies love playing in the living room – they are crazy!

Minion mayhem

Photos will be added to the gallery

We have had a special visitor today – a little pal called Fred.  This little guy is actually Maggies half brother and therefore an Uncle to the puppies!  Can you see the family resemblance?  Maggie and Fred share the same Daddy!  Maggie is losing her coat poor girl – it will come back when she stops feeding the puppies.

and here is Uncle Melvin doing his duties of checking the pups are all where they are supposed to be!

We have been having fun with the puppies.  They have been playing in the garden and this evening we had them racing about in the living room.

Minions speed up!

They still spend a lot of time sleeping.  It is very important to let the puppies sleep as this is when they grow!  We have also clipped their claws.

The puppies are playing with each other all the time and are also learning how to play with toys.

I must extend personal thanks to Nicola for the photos that she took for me on Sunday – how lovely to have someone with a photographic eye.    These photos are already in the gallery.

Wet weather play……A little bit of dressing up fun!

Today has been picking day!  It is very hard for puppy buyers to choose between one cute puppy and another cute puppy.  However they have managed to do this hard task.  I promise you will all be very happy with your new pups!  A very busy day – lots of visitors as well as the return of my much loved car! (over 9 years off the road)

Here is my favourite photo of the day.. Grandma Molly with “Mr Blue” and Maggie in the background.
