As much as it was hard to say goodbye to our precious Teal, he went to the most amazing home we could ask for! His dad is a veterinarian and him and his wife live in beautiful Saint Augustine where he gets lots of walks, toys, and love a pup could ask for! I know he is going to have the very best life! Look forward to getting updates and watching him grow into the pupfect pup we know he will be!

Black went to go live with a musician and Yoga Instructor where his morning walks with be along the beach in the Florida Sand! His family is wonderful and he will have a nice big bunch or humans to give him all the love he deserves! 

Man time sure does fly when you are having fun, How are these pups already 6 weeks old?! They are pretty much fully potty trained with the exception of an occassional accident due to us not quite getting them all out of the house when the first one or two gets up. In a typical one pup setting I would say they are almost perfectly potty trained however I do not want to set them up for failure with false expectations coming into new homes in the coming weeks. Transitions are still a time when skills that have seemingly been mastered can falter so I will not claim any pup is truly potty trained until they are acclimated to their new homes and routine. That being said when you have 8 6 week old puppies all make it over 2 weeks overnight without a single accident I think you can call that a win! During the day where they are mostly free roam suprivised within the house we have the occasional accident happen but honestly we are so very impressed with how well they are doing. We will start bell training next week too which will hopefully help provide a constant for them when they transition into their new homes. They have transitioned from much to a ground up version of their dry food with some food toppers mixed in to their morning and evening meals. They have learned what treats are and area eager to learn the things that will get them the delicious yum yums they crave! Currently Cheese and Nudges jerky treats are their all time fave! We have had almost daily opportunities lately to play in the rain and do fun stuff as the storms roll in and none of them are at all bothered by them or their thunderous noises! We love to hop around the vacuum cleaner when it comes to clean up their puppy messes and no one seems a bit fazed about the noise that comes with. We are getting more and more confident each day (sometimes overly so lol) taking on new challenges with climbing on and through new things. Although they all have their unique personalities they are all such outgoing confident pups it's hard to single any one out of this litter which makes our decisions so much harder when it comes to who will continue on with our service dog program. At this point I couldn't pick out anyone who I feel would not have to potential to complete the program and continue on to do service dog work. We will see what these next few weeks bring, hopefully we will be able to make a decision easily but I have a feeling they do not plan to make this part of the process easy at all! Not complaining though, there are definitely worse things to be worried about! 

They are really starting to Love outside playtime, but with that comes lots of baths! This is a snapshot of Big Brother looking over them as they get ready for a cleanup session! This will probably be the last group bath we do since their 5 week old personalities are flourishing and they are figuring out that I only have 2 hands and they have a combined 32 paws that can give me a run for my money! They love water, but being contained in a less than enriching environment for an extended period of time is less than ideal for them and they let me know it. So goodbye to our fun group Splish splash sessions and hello to one on one cleanup and grooming ones!
