COUNTING THE DAYS

2 & 3 more days, the countdown for the pups to go home is on, and as with our other litters they have stolen our hearts. It has been a great 7 weeks, we hope and pray that their new families will enjoy them as much as we have. They are truly so much fun and so LOVING.......

The pups got their stuffed puppies that they will take home with them today to play with and get their odors on. They have had a ball with them, playing tug of war (of course they all want the same one and all four are just alike) and dragging them from one end of the crib to the other...

Tonight they will start sleeping with their take home blankets. We try to send them home with some things that have the mom's and their sibling's odors on so they won't be so scared at bedtime when they go to their new home. I know it's normal for them to cry for a night or two when leaving, but it still breaks my heart, so we try to make it as easy as possible.

Boy 2 will be the first to leave as he is going Friday afternoon, I think he is counting the days..(I also think he is gloating since he was the last to find a forever home and going to be the first to leave)
