So we you all know we have Yankee, Dixie, and now Belle from their first litter. Ummm we just realized our Miss Dixie is soon to have another bunch of puppies!! We didn't want her to have anymore pups, we are still recovering from the last batch! Who ever said there is money to be made from having AKC registered pups are crazy! Our dogs have a beautiful kennel that Steve worked his ever living ass off building for them. The place is HUGE! the house is insulated and looks like a real house for heavens sake. It's shaded, has a pool, and all the sticks Yankee could possible chew or chase. Though by the end of the day they are house dogs, they think they own place and everything in it. They are spoiled, they have a plastic bucket that was for recycling bottles that Yankee has now claimed as his " toy box " Dixie knows where the treat jar is in our bedroom, and when she wants some she pokes it with her nose and stares at it. Then there is my Belle "one of the best gifts Steve ever gave me " she is a little bit of both her parents. Not only is she loved to death by us but her parents still clean her and she is 6 months old!
My dilemma? the work!! I can't even begin to tell you how much work there was. The food to feed them and keep them clean was unbelievable. Poor Dixie had 9 fat ass pups who ate like there was no tomorrow. Part of me and Steve are dreading it but, it was one of the nicest experiences I ever had and wouldn't have missed sharing that with him for the world. So I am bracing myself to do it all over again. Her last batch was born on Valentines day, I would love her to have them labor day but, I don't think she will hold out that long.
Here's some pics of their sweet Puppy family.
Look at the proud Mama and tiny puppy is Belle, we know that because she always laid with her mama and still does till this day.
