More Puppy Pictures!


Wow. Have I really been out of school for over a week? Time does fly. I'm slowly adjusting to the new routine. The hardest part is still getting up in the morning- and going to be at night. My sisters and I have watched all of the Die Hard movies (edited) this week, and Lethal Weapon 4 (also edited,) while working on projects at night.

I ran out of dishcloth yarn a couple of days ago, so I finally started the baby quilt I bought material for before Easter. I was able to finish the top last night. This is my first time sewing a quilt and I think it turned out pretty well. 
The puppies are growing fast!  We moved them outside this week.  During the day they play in the backyard, where they can have lots of socialization and supervision.  At night they are now sleeping in a converted playhouse.  We bought them all collars, so now we can tell them apart, and now they have names!






"Reddi" was the first puppy named, by my 3 year old niece.  She saw the red collar and knew just what to name her!


















This one is "Rex."  I think my 7 year old brother named him.  













"Abby"


















"Sarah"
































"Yankee"


















"Hettie"










"Storm"


























"Ducky"






















"Echo"














They are all SO sweet.  We let Charlie play with them today.  He is SUCH a good daddy!  Although typically he will wander away, given the chance, he stays in the yard when he is with the puppies.  He even led them back to their doghouse when it started to rain today (with our help, of course,) something Dutchess doesn't seem to enjoy doing. 
  He doesn't even mind when they climb on him!  

This is Dutchess and Charlie's second batch of puppies.  My older sister took the only male out of last years litter.  Size wise, he's a little closer to Charlie than Dutchess.
Personality wise, he's a cross between the two.  He has Dutchess's enthusiastic friendliness, but is still mellow like Charlie. 
I created a photobucket account, and there are more puppy pictures there.  I THINK this link will work http://s986.photobucket.com/albums/ae349/The_Rambling_Amateur/Puppies%202010/ - never having used it, I can't be sure.  
If anyone is interested in adopting one of these sweethearts, we are asking $250 for them.  Charlie is a purebred Newfoundland, and Dutchess is a purebred Golden Retriever.  The puppies are hybrids. :)  You can contact me by commenting with your email address.  All comments are moderated and I will NOT post any comments with personal info, including email addresses.
