After three gloriously beautiful days that the puppies got to spend all day out in the yard romping and playing, it turned cold and rainy during the night last night. This morning, they were not happy at the thought of staying in the big crate they share at night. So, we had to come up with plan B. We have ended up with them in the master bath where there is run to play, but not enough room for us to have to “hunt” messes.
I just found out that another one of the puppies we are raising is going into therapy work. Foxy (one of Wrap’s girls) is going to live with a lady who teaches an animal therapy elective at a college near her home. Foxy will be going with her to class to be a living example of therapy training and then will get to use her skills!
One of Honey’s sons, Bentley was featured recently on his local news channel for his work as a therapy dog. You can see Bentley here:

We also found out that one of Honey’s pups will start therapy training as soon as she goes to her new home in a couple of weeks! Her name is Lady and she will be mainly working with autistic children. To learn more about Lady’s new home and their wonderful work with autistic children and their families, visit
Wrap’s puppies went outside for the first time today. They enjoyed exploring a little, but were anxious to get back to their enclosure in the house. They also had their first solid food and they gobbled it up!
Honey’s puppies made the 3 1/2 hour trip to Austin on Friday to visit the animal eye doctor. They all had good reports and the eye doctor confirmed there was no evidence of CEA – which we knew would be the case since King is a non-carrier and Honey is normal-eyed and this means none of their puppies can ever have CEA!
We left 4 puppies with their new owner. They will be evaluated and possibly have show careers! It seems strange just counting to 5 now instead of 9!
