The puppies are here!

After a long, grueling night, the blessed event concluded at 7 a.m. with Mandy delivering four healthy puppies: three boys and one girl. Each puppy is unique and different from its siblings. We always name our puppies while we have them so we won't be saying, "Hey, you!" Of course, the new owners can rename them. We like to follow a theme, such as a movie cast, German names, etc. At this point the puppies are unnamed because we can't agree on our theme. So I propose that everyone cast your vote for your favorite. Here are the choices:

1.Surfing brands: Roxy, Hurley, Burton and Reef
2.Hairspray (the musical): Penny, Link, Sketch and Fender
3.Bugsy Malone (the movie): Tallulah, Fat Sam, Dandy Dan, Bugsy
4.Famous Outlaws: Belle Starr, Black Bart, Jesse James and Billy the Kid

So everyone feel free to let us know what you think, as well as propose more themes. In the meantime, enjoy the new members of the fam!


The puppies are here. This is the first one that was born. It is a boy and he is a black and tan just like his mom. He weighed in at 6.5 oz. This little guy also has a white star on his chest.




The second one was also a boy and he is a solid cream color. He weighed in at 6 oz. He is a feisty little one!









The third one born was our only girl. She was the biggest, weighing in at 7 oz. She is a very pretty brown color.








Our fourth and last puppy is the runt, also a boy, weighing in at 4.5 oz. He is definately a cute little guy. He has a pretty brown coat with a white tummy.







Here is a picture of Mandy with all her little puppies chowin' down. They are actually in their birth order, from left to right. You can definately tell that the girl is the big one, especially next to the tiny runt. But they are all so precious!
