Whippets love children!

If you are interested in one of our puppies, you will get $100 off if you can tell exactly where my accent comes from, haha. I usually put music on puppy videos due to my loud 1 year old son, but since you can see my older son talking in this video, it wouldn't make much sense. Enjoy!

Cleaning the puppy enclosure...

... is sometimes necessary. I had to take it apart today and take it to the backyard so it can get a good scrub down and be bleached to avoid viral infections among our puppies. It has always been important to us to keep the puppies and their environment as clean as possible, because things like canine parvo virus are raging in the south. Our own dogs are not allowed outside of our property during the whole time we have puppies to raise, so they won't bring anything back home that could harm our puppies.

While the puppy enclosure stayed outside to dry, I let the puppies run around in our sun room, using the crate and our Christmas tree box to keep them from running around in the whole house. Having 8 puppies at the same time running around in your house, with only one adult to supervise them, would quickly turn into chaos of apocalyptical proportions. 
The puppies had fun, especially because they could be either in the sunroom or on the patio or in the backyard. But now that they have been running around for a little bit over an hour now, I can see that the first ones are getting tired, and are ready to go down for a nap :)

Super short, but cute :)

A super short video of the puppies! I didn't have any space left on my card, so the video stopped on it's own. We will spend all afternoon in our backyard!

Playtime in the morning

Another cold morning - but the dogs had a blast during the short time they have been outside. It is very cold this morning, and I think that I might give the puppies more time to exercise and run around in my living room today. Our puppies are 6 weeks old today, and 4 of them are still available to excellent homes! If you are interested in one of our puppies, please read this post for more information.

Dash found a way to climb onto the deck, which
is the gateway to our patio and sunroom.

Coby, Anne and Jacob are left behind wondering...

Christmas Spirit!

For me, Christmas season starts the day after Thanksgiving. I am really trying to put myself into the spirit of Christmas, and I let the puppies help me with it! I am sure you can imagine that this was the hardest shoot I ever had, considering how curious and fast those little Whippets are. Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours, let's celebrate with puppy Christmas pictures!

Echo (available) inquire about me!
He loved to have Christmas pictures taken!
Isn't he the prettiest reindeer you have ever seen?

Dash (available) inquire about me!
He didn't want to be Santa, but he didn't mind
being one of Santa's little helper.

Jet (sold)
... didn't fit in one of the costumes, and I think the
pictures explain why :) Even the headband sat so
tight on him, he looked like a Japanese Whippet.

Anne (sold)
A size 0 model. She loved her pretty winter dress!

Coby (sold)

Loved the Christmas cookies, and enjoyed his little
Santa costume.

Katherine (sold)

Couldn't stand still for a moment... unfortunately :)
She was too excited about the cookies!

Jacob (available) inquire about me!
Didn't like the bell on his helper costume, so we
changed him in a warm sweater! Look at that face!

Sonny (available) inquire about me!
Surprisingly still fit in one of the outfits :)
Show us your pretty face boy!
