Visit from 1/2 Brother Stormy! (Day 18)

Stormy is home now and he visits the puppies every chance he gets!

He just looks at them like he can't understand what they are!

He is very gentle with them BUT Honey is very protective and will not let him linger around their bed for long!!!!

I'm your BIG 1/2 Brother!!!! I can tell you what to do!!!!!

Just Like Children,

they are so SWEET when they are asleep!

But when they start to wake up, there is no place for Mommy to hide!

Sometimes they will not even give her a chance to lay down!

YM- Has a good appetite!

March 28,2010 (Day 15)

It was CRAZY this morning!

We hear all of this noise, like little children playing, grunts & squeaks, little yips & noises like a Gremlin would make! It was the puppies!

It seems like over night they are all walking (Staggering) around! They seemed to be having so much FUN! When Mommy got in the box they had no problem finding her this morning!

HELP! Mom, my brother pooped on me!


Honey doesn't look like herself. She is eating well, but she is worn out! I guess it is because she is eating for 11 now!


Where did Mom go? I wasn't done!!!

Sire- FC AFC Small Craft Advisory "Rough"

Dam - Yardley Labs MS-T MAXX "Misty"

Ed & Stormy went with:
Michael J. Galante of NextGen Retrievers
and the NextGen TEAM

to

Linden, North Carolina

for a "Lumber River Retriever Club" - AKC Hunt Test

Where "Stormy" won his first Junior Hunter Ribbon. He is a young dog to be in competition. He still has a lot of Puppy in him BUT he did a GREAT job. He still needs some work on calming down at the line and holding the bird. That will be the next focal points of his training!

Ed works with both Honey and Stormy on retrieving and obedience when they are home. Stormy has been under the Care and Training of Micheal and NextGen Team for ~6weeks. The training is going GREAT! Ed is also working hard with Stormy. He has been to visit and is training with Stormy and the group. Micheal also trains the handlers and it is a great benefit for all Dog owners!

Thank You!

The Puppies eyes are opening. The Mommy is licking their eyes lick she is helping them to open. She is a really "GOOD" Mom BUT yesterday when I got out the bumper she turned into a puppy again. She was so excited, she was jumping and hopping like a puppy her self. It was good to see her play!!!

The Puppies are doing GREAT this morning! They eat so much their little tummys are stuffed and now they are back to sleep! We had lots of visitors over the weekend. Thank you all for stopping by!

March 21, 2010 (Day 9)

The puppies have grown so much in the first week. They are scooting around their box when they smell mommy hop in and they are eating well. Their eyes are not open yet, but they should be soon! Honey's appetite has returned and is eating again.

March 16,2010 (Day 4)

One of the Yellow males was not doing well on Tuesday night. He was cold and very lethargic. We put him on a heating pad and dripped sugar water in his mouth until midnight. When we awoke Wednesday morning we discovered that the puppy didn't make it. It was so sad! Our son Ryan, took it hard.

March 15, 2010 (Day 3)

The puppies went to the Vet for the first time. All of the puppies are doing well. They made out fine getting their dewclaws off. Honey has not been eating much. Ed is now giving her canned food.
