Jessie's puppies are six weeks old!

Six weeks in, and these pups have entered what we like to call their "main character era." Gone are the days of just eating and sleeping. Now it's all confidence, curiosity, and a whole lot of opinions about everything.

Teeth are coming in amazing, legs are getting steadier by the day, and their little personalities are fully in bloom at this point. We've got a few instigators starting trouble, a couple of peacekeepers trying to referee, and at least one who would rather just nap through the whole thing, thank you very much.

The best part of this stage is watching them figure out the world a little more each day. New textures, new sounds, new toys, they're investigating everything with that perfect mix of bold and cautious that makes puppies so endlessly entertaining to watch.

Big things are on the horizon too. Temperament testing is happening soon, and that's when we'll finally get to match each puppy with the family they're meant for. Stay tuned, because that announcement is going to be a the best one yet!

Jessie's puppies are five weeks old!

Five weeks old and these pups are already pros at this puppy thing, if "pro" means mastering naps, snacks, and low-key chaos in equal measure. One minute they're an adorable heap of sleeping fluff, the next they're tumbling over each other and their own paws like the floor personally offended them.

You can check out some cute little video clips of them on Instagram right over here!

These days. Lots of romping around the house, wobbly wrestling matches, and plenty of exploring on legs that haven't quite gotten the memo yet. And then, just as suddenly, it's cuddle time, and they crash into a pile for approximately one thousand snuggles. It's basically a puppy on/off switch and we are here for it.

What's making this stage extra fun is watching their personalities start to peek through. There's a bold one, a total goofball, and a snuggle-bug who never wants to be put down. Every day we get a little more of who they're going to be, and honestly, we're already obsessed.

Five weeks down. So much love (and mess) to go. 🐾

Maisie's puppies are five weeks old!

These pups are officially five weeks old and absolutely fearless! They've turned the house into their personal playground, romping around like tiny tornadoes... until they suddenly hit a wall (literally, sometimes) and conk out wherever they land.

Behind the couch, under a toy, mid-stride, it's basically a live game of Puppy Hide and Seek, except they're the ones hiding from their own naps! 😂

Beyond the chaos and the crash-landings, these babies are pure sweetness, total cuddle bugs who melt hearts on command. We are obsessed with these cuties and cannot get enough of them!

Jessie's puppies are four weeks old!

Four weeks in and these pups are absolutely thriving! We've officially hit the halfway mark to their forever homes, and the potty training progress has us doing a happy dance every single day.

Their personalities are really starting to shine now. We've got the bold explorers, the snuggly lap-lovers, and everyone in between. Watching them tumble and play with their littermates never gets old, and every day brings a new little quirk that makes us fall even harder.

Safe to say, we are completely smitten. 🐾

Jessie's puppies are three weeks old!

Three weeks old and living their best clumsy little life! This week's big challenge: legs. They know they have four of them, they're just not entirely sure what order to use them in yet. Progress, not perfection.

New this week: softened kibble, fresh water, and (brace yourselves) litter box training. These pups went from "eyes barely open" to "enrolling in puppy trade school" in exactly seven days flat. Overachievers, honestly.

Will they nail it right away? Absolutely not. Expect some confused sniffing and a few "wait, what is this for" moments. But give them a week, and they'll be pros before you know it.

Maisie's puppies are two weeks old!

These gorgeous puppies are two weeks old today and aren’t they just dreamy!!! We are so in love with them and all their little sweet puppy noises. You can check them out over on Instagram too!

As you can see, their eyes are slowly starting to open, and they are getting a little (overwhelming) glimpse of the world! Momma Maisie is doing amazing and loves them to pieces.

Jessie's puppies are one week old!

These babies are already one week old! Time goes pretty fast for these puppies since they sleep ALL OF THE TIME, essentially! You can check them out over on Instagram too.

The first week is a pretty exhausting one for them because the world is quite a big place. They spend their day eating, sleeping, and pooping. They wriggle around to get as close to each other and momma as possible because they love a warm place to cuddle.

Frannie's puppies are six weeks old!

Frannie's puppies are six weeks old!

It’s the six-week milestone for Frannie’s gorgeous puppies! Here’s a cute little video on Instagram as they play during our photoshoot. (Bonus points if you can tell which pup got into the garden soil right before their photo shoot, LOL!)

Time is flying these days, and these pups are really coming into their personalities this week. They are officially full-blown puppies, are super independent, and don’t need their momma quite as much now.

Their chubby bellies (and their growth spurts) are letting us know that they enjoy the softened puppy chow, and they are pretty much hitting the mark on potty training most of the time too!

We are taking a lot of notes to prepare for temperament testing next week and begin the allocation process for our families.

It’s an exciting time, and we know they are just as excited as we are to find out which puppy matches them best.

Frannie's puppies are five weeks old!

Congrats to these pups for reaching the five-week-old milestone! These cuties have made it all the way to “think they are much bigger than they actually are” town. You can watch this cute little video of them on Instagram to see what they think about sitting on an old ice cream chair for this week’s photo shoot instead of being outside in the sunshine. (Spoiler alert: They didn’t love it. LOL.)

They are so playful, happy, bundles of joy right now, and this is when it starts getting really fun! They weren’t too happy they couldn’t romp around outside with the big storm, but quickly discovered they could romp around a whole house instead! 😅 (They are really into rugs right now, by the way).

They’ve are officially LOVING life and have got the hang of puppyhood now.

Frannie is able to take a lot more time for herself these days. She is always close by, but we think she is enjoying this stage a lot, too.

Frannie's puppies are two weeks old!

These gorgeous pups are already 2 weeks old and so, so sweet! We’re in love with their colours, and of course, their cuddles and sweet little puppy noises. You can see them toddling about on Instagram!

We are starting to see a little brown pop through on a couple of the black puppies (which they totally got from their Dad!)

They are very content these days and spend most of their time napping and eating, and also just piling on top of one another and mommy too. Their eyes are mostly open now, and they’re toddling around really well on all fours, especially when it comes to meal times or finding the best nap spot.

You can see their litter call names if you view this post on a desktop, too!

Frannie's puppies are one week old!

Whelp… it’s official. Frannie’s puppies are already one week old, and somehow the days are moving faster than our sleep-deprived brains can keep up. 😅

And speaking of sleep deprivation… we have an important correction to make: after a very tired first-week puppy count, we officially have 4 boys and 4 girls! Apparently puppy math gets a little questionable on limited sleep.

These little babes are spending most of their days doing what newborn puppies do best: sleeping, snuggling close to momma, piling on top of each other, and making frequent trips to the milk bar. Between naps, they’re slowly beginning to take in the world around them one tiny squeak at a time.

Frannie continues to be the sweetest, most attentive mama. She’s absolutely soaking up every cuddle and is so proud of her babies. She’s even started letting the kiddos climb into the pen for gentle kisses and snuggles, which melts us completely every single time.

We can’t believe how much they’ve already changed in just one week, and we know the fun is only just beginning.

Frannie's puppies are four weeks old!

Frannie’s puppies have officially hit the four-week mark, which means we’re just a month away from introducing them to their forever families and we’re already counting down the days.

Over the next couple of weeks, these pups will grow more confident and independent. They’re already doing great with early potty training, enjoying their softened kibble, and mastering the art of being adorable, whether that’s piling up for group naps or soaking up cuddles from the kiddos.

More updates coming soon as they continue to grow!

Beau's puppies are six weeks old!

Beau’s pups have officially reached the six-week mark, and they’re stepping into full puppy mode, playful, curious, and far more independent from mom.

They’re loving their softened kibble, their little bellies are proof, and they’re doing really well with early potty training, too.

We’re watching their personalities closely this week as we prepare for temperament testing and begin the early stages of matching each puppy with their forever family. It’s an exciting time, and we know everyone’s eager to see which pup will be theirs!

Frannie's puppies are three weeks old!

Happy three-week milestone to Frannie’s puppies! Their little bellies are filling out, and they’re starting to wobble around with a lot more confidence.

This week is a big one—they’ll get their first taste of softened puppy kibble, learn to drink from a water dish, and begin litter-box potty training. It’s the start of their slow shift toward a bit more independence from Mom over the next few weeks.

For now, life is still all about snuggling, snoozing, and snacking… with plenty of extra cuddle time from the kids, of course.

Beau's puppies are five weeks old!

These babies are five weeks old and basically almost total pros at puppyhood!

They’ve got the hang of leg/body coordination and are feeling a whole lot more confident in their running and hopping around during play. They are also really digging the softened puppy chow and hardly miss the litter box (for pooping atleast).

This is when it gets fun! They are more confident, vocal, and their personalities are starting to shine through a little more each day. We’re hoping that with a little more sunshine, we’re able to let them hang outside soon so they can meet the great outdoors.

Frannie's puppies are two weeks old!

Frannie’s puppies have reached their 2-week milestone! The puppies are just starting to blink their way into the world, seeing everything in that dreamy, early-dawn kind of way.

It’s still a little overwhelming, so their days are filled with milk, warmth, and long, peaceful naps.

By next week, their eyes will be wide open and they’ll start wobbling around on all fours, ready for tiny adventures.

If you check the blog out on a computer, you can see their litter nick names. You can also check them moving about with their nick names on our instagram!

Frannie's puppies are one week old!

Meet Frannie’s Puppies! These babies are officially one week old! Time goes pretty fast for these puppies since they sleep ALL the TIME! The first week is a pretty exhausting one for them because the world is quite a big place.

They spend their day eating, sleeping, and pooping. They wriggle around to get as close to each other and momma as possible because they love a warm place to cuddle.

We’re enjoying puppy cuddles as the days begin to cool down here.

P.S. We actually have a couple of spots available on this litter plan since she had a bit more than expected. So if you know of any family or friends that are looking to welcome home a doodle this Christmas, let us know!

Bailey's puppies are heading home this weekend!

We couldn’t be more excited to introduce Bailey’s puppies to their forever families this weekend! That’s right! They’re heading home. It’s a day full of wiggly bums and happy tears and we couldn’t be more thankful that we get to share in that moment. =]

Beau's puppies are two week old!

You’ll notice the names are a tad different this week. They are correct now! These gorgeous puppies are two weeks old and are beginning to open their eyes. The world is pretty big, so they like to keep them closed as much as possible, but they are getting more curious after each nap!

They are still sleeping, eating, and cuddling with each other and momma these days, but by this time next week, they will start getting used to standing up on all four legs and begin toddling about.

They will also be introduced to softened kibble, fresh water, and even litter box training. They are growing so fast, so try not to blink!

This is when it gets fun! They are more confident, vocal, and their personalities are starting to shine through a little more each day. With all the sunshine, they were able to hang out outside for a little while and arrange some floral for us.
