Labrador Puppies

SUGAR BABIES HAVE ARRIVED!

,

Sugar decided that she would start Labor on Weds. December 16th (2 days before her scheduled C-Section.)

So away we went to the Stillwater Veterinary Clinic and we came home with 9 beautiful, healthy yellow lab puppies!  Sugar is doing great and is such a wonderful Mom!

6 Females and 3 Males

Here  begins another Fun Adventure at Rushwind!  Can you imagine 9 Rowdy Labrador Puppies indoors in the dead of winter?  Yikes!

Watch the puppies grow, as I will be posting weekly pictures.

MISS “SUGAR” The quiet evenings in front of the Christmas tree are over.
Mama Sugar is hanging out with her babes before her bath.
Sugar is on the look out because the Border Terrier Moms (Journey and Trixie) already want to come in the box to help.
4 days old
We catch these moments when we can. See how the pigment is coming in already. Little black noses and foot pads.
It’s the night before Christmas Eve, there’s a winter storm outside, and we have some “Christmas Caroling” in the house!   The puppies are 1 week old today.  Miss Green, Miss Yellow, and Miss Pink

August 18, 2019   It has been a big weekend for the Pups.  They turned 3 weeks old, moved out to their new

home in the kennel, had their nails clipped, and they started “puppy mush” twice a day.  Mama Sugar is doing great, but I think she is relieved now to have a little help feeding the hungry crew and getting some help with clean up!

Our Journey came to an end this weekend, as all of the Nyx and Raffi puppies left for their forever homes.  It was a privilege to work with and form relationships with such wonderful families.  We know in our hearts that all of them are going to loving homes and will be a special part of each family.

With Gratitude;
