Puppies in the House

A few weeks ago, we went to get a puppy or possibly two from the people that we got Holly from. Well, guess what... ended up with three of them. The pups were nearly four months old when we got them and they are actually doing really well. They had a little skin "condition" that the vet has treated and you can really see a difference in them. They are house trained for the most part when they sleep inside at night and they have only "escaped" from the yard a couple of times. All in all, it hasn't been too bad.

It's funny how the puppy matches the one that claimed them....

Meet Maggie

Blaine claimed this one when she saw the puppies and asked if we were going to take her too...

She is a little red lab that is a little bit skittish around the little ones. I don't think she trusts Riley when he comes running to chase her down, so into the bushes she goes. When the other two escaped from the yard, Maggie held back as if to say...ya'll are going to be in trouble now ...Just like I could hear Blaine saying...

Next, meet Max. Max was claimed by Riley as the boys have to stick together. Max is very well behaved. He was the first to actually sit when asked and seems to get into mischief. He is very curious. From looking at his paws, I think he is going to be a pretty big boy once he is grown. He is a blond color. It is neat how we have one of each color, except for the chocolate.

And finally, meet Mia. She is the mischievous, get into trouble, check everything out and don't miss out on anything, little lady. The lady that we got her from called her nosy and I can see why. Mia and Abby hit it off instantly so she was Abby's dog. Since being at house, they have had a few differences, and Mia is learning lessons about not getting into trouble. When the "escape" from the yard happened, Mia was leading the pack. As you can see from the picture on the first day, she was too busy checking everything out and "nosing" around to pose for a picture with Abby.

We have enjoyed the pups and took them for their first official lease walk last night. They all did a great job.
