THE PUPS ARE GONE...THE JOURNEY

Well I have tried to post a few times during this busy time of puppies and christmas etc...didn't get here as often as I would have liked but now they are gone....so maybe I can get on here more often...
Well first lets talk about where the pups have been and  are now.....
At six and a half weeks  they left with Shannon...my friend and Quila's breeder...they stayed at her house until they are were ready to go to their forever homes. They had  their immunizations and temperment testing during this time. It will also gave them a chance to socialize with some new people, see their forever home people again, and also interact with some dogs and as well as  a cat. They had some small agility equipment to play on which  challenged them and gave them some new experiences.
We have really tried to give these pups every type of developmental advantage that we can...at each stage of their development they have been introduced to different toys, tunnels, textures of varing types, numerous people...including children etc. As they progressed they were given different experiences....the snow, leaves, different types of food, toys to stimulate different types of play etc....watching them develop has been an exciting process.
I look at them now and they are well developed , well socialized pups...I can't wait to see them as adult dogs....they are going to be wonderful!!


 Here they are all ready for the long journey to Shannon's house....they travelled really well....






 This is the agility equipment Shannon's husband , Dale, built for the pups....

 Even outside the pups are trying to have the odd snack....they are on food and mostly off of their mom....but a snack now and again is always nice!!
Now that they are at Shannon's they had a new area to play and explore in....all this activity has them exhausted!
