Winston the Babysitter

At two years old, Winston’s temperament is superb. He is a half brother to Clyde and See See, who are 16 weeks old. He does a great job of playing gently with them, and they learned how to be respectful of a larger dog from their mother Jane.

Playtime with Brother Winston and Ears are Up!

Puppy training

A couple of the puppies that went to homes in the Richmond area came over on Saturday for some informal training. We worked on walking on a leash and coming when called. Of course, we had to have play sessions! My two short coats, Clyde and See See, got to play with Chief (formerly knownContinue reading “Puppy training”

Another natural retrieve!

In her new home, Connie’s new mom checked out the natural retrieve instinct. Here it is!

Connie’s new family

I love the way Connie is already adapting to her new family! The Jack Russell and Connie are already curling up together. This was love at first sight! She settled in on Saturday, and these pics were taken on Sunday.

So with Connie’s best interest in mind, I must place her. Just because she is the last puppy available out of a litter of 11Continue reading “Long-haired female GSD available”

Goodbye to Quarterhorse

Quarter went to his new home today! All the way in Pennsylvania. I’m very pleased with this placement because the family is familiar with German Shepherds, having owned them before. And horses! They have horses! They will have to be careful with Quarter at first until he gets used to being around them, keeping himContinue reading “Goodbye to Quarterhorse”

The mystery began on Friday

Last Thursday, I had 5 puppies still here. That’s Quarter in the front, my two I’m keeping- Clyde and See See lying together- then Connie with the pink collar I’m holding back until a friend is ready for her, and Cherry next to the tree. That’s two available. A family who wanted to find aContinue reading “The mystery began on Friday”
