Our book trailer!

We've just released our book trailer. You should check it out. Isn't it amazing? - Michaela

It is very adorable.

Jean-Luc And Humphrey: Feeling Better

Jean-Luc and Humphrey are feeling better. They antibiotics seemed to have helped them a lot.

We gave Michaela a little bit, just in case. I didn't want her to come down with anything.

We all miss Alistair. There is a certain emptiness to the house without him in it. I can't stop thinking about him.

Just writing in this blog, now that I have only three, now that one of them is in Heaven, I feel guilty. Extremely guilty.

I tried to save Alistair. I did everything I could think of to save him. It wasn't enough.

I wish I could have done more.

Jean-Luc, Humphrey, and Michaela have all been playing today. Except for when they were sleeping off the antibiotic.

They are much improved.

We all miss you and love you, Alistair.

Home Sweet Home

Maggie and Marilyn went to their new home today.

They were both adopted into the same family.

That comforts me.

Magdalena, Marilyn, Michaela, Alistair, Humphrey, and Jean-Luc at 4 weeks.

I did cry a little, though.

I was doing fine. We were riding in the car. Listening to the music. Both of them in my lap. Then Maggie looked up at me.

She just gave me this look.

And I teared up. 

I couldn't help it.

Maggie: Her eyes are weapons of mass cuteness.

Maggie did fine when we around the people sitting in the unit. Marilyn was shaky and cried. They were both more comfortable when they were with their sister.

Marilyn (7 1/2 weeks) was nervous but did okay when with her sister.

I'm so glad I didn't have to separate them.

I think they'll be fine since they stuck together.

I should get updates often on how they are doing since the girl who took them works with my mother on a regular basis.

Before you get too sad, remember, you can still look forward to posts about Michaela, Alistair, Jean-Luc, and Humphrey.

I'll be posting pictures of them playing outside, enjoying their first spring soon.

Six Weeks!

Although I was without internet access for a while due to moving into a new house, I still wanted to take profile pictures of each of the puppies once they turned six weeks old. I took a few shots of each of them. Here are I present to you the six pictures that came out the best. So, now, in no particular order, may I present....

MAGDALENA

MARILYN

MICHAELA

JEAN-LUC

HUMPHREY

ALISTAIR

So far, we have only found a new home for Maggie. We will not be parting ways with Humphrey and I doubt if Jean-Luc is going anywhere, either. I want to keep all six of them, they are so precious! But it would be expensive to feed all six of them. :/

For the next few posts I'm going to be taking an individual look at each of the puppies and write a bit about them, giving them an actual profile.

Puppies Nursing

Here is a video of Alistair, Humphrey, Jean-Luc, Marilyn, Magdalena, and Michaela nursing their mother. I set it to Fireflies by Owl City because the song is soft and one of my favourites. Now that I am thinking about it I actually wish I would have set it a Karaoke version of Fireflies or maybe Vanilla Twilight instead.

The FIRST week

Jean-Luc

Michaela and Maggie?

Michaela?

Jean-Luc

Jean-Luc was named by the Star Trek fanatic.

 We decided to give them temp names so we have something to call them by until they are old enough to find new homes. Their names are Alistair (Al), Humphrey (Bogie), Jean-Luc (Luca), and the girls are Marilyn, Magdalena, and Michaela but I like to say Mari, Maggie, and Mak.

Alistair is a name I liked.
Humphrey is after Mr. Bogart.
Jean-Luc is after Jean-Luc Picard.
Marilyn is after Ms. Monroe.
Magdalena is just a name I like and I adore the nickname Maggie.
Michaela is another name I like although Mom chose it. I chose the nickname Mak.

D.P's Story

This is D.P.

The December before last a co-worker of mine found an abandoned puppy behind her outdoor trashcan. She brought the puppy up to work. She couldn't keep her and most of the people she asked couldn't keep her either. 

She was a brown and black bundle and she was all wrapped up in a red and blue blanket. I couldn't resist her baby face. I lived with my grandfather and knew he wouldn't be happy if I brought home another dog so I sneaked her home and kept her hidden. When he found her he let her stay. I told him I was trying to find her a home. He accepted that and let me be.

When we moved into our new house D.P, still not having a home moved with us. She is now a year and three months old and she recently had six puppies. That's how this blog came to be.
