Shanna’s puppies are doing well - there are 6 girls and 4 boys.  We lost the 5th boy during delivery.  These pups do not have names yet, but very soon they will.  The puppies weighed in at .75 to 1 pound.

 

Toes 07-277 is also pictured here with Shanna and her puppies because she is one of them now and she weighs 1.6 pounds.

 

These puppies will be ready to go home around June 24th – if you are interested in meeting them please email placementatragom [dot] org.  I will start individual updates at the end of May, but if you would like to talk about them, we can do that!

Spice weighed in at 9.25 pounds on Thursday – wow where does she pack it on?  She is still very petite and a wonderful looking puppy.  I can not wait to see how she does in her new home.  Her new parents were so very excited to see her this afternoon and be able to bring her home.

 

All the puppies went home today because they got Coccidia last week and really the only way to get rid of this nasty worm is to keep the area very clean and make sure the puppies do not lick each other, step on the poop and other things that are really hard to control with 9 very active puppies.  So the vet suggested we let the puppies go home since they are all HUGE and doing very well.

 

So we gave our instructions to all the new parents and told them to love our puppies.   I miss them already

Bree continues to grow and become her own independent little girl.  We just love watching her wonder around and find toys.  Potty training is going well for her.  She will wait by the door, not for long but she will come go over and say – its time.

 

Bree is still the first to crawl on your legs to lie down and take a nap.  The past few afternoons she has let herself out and go behind a little fire pit to take her naps.  Scared the heck out of us the first few times, we do puppy counts constantly and we could not find her!  Yep I thought I lost a puppy, I was not happy at all.

 

Bree is going to be ready to head to her forever home around June 20th.

Spice – Bree – Turns 4 weeks tomorrow!  Can you believe it?  I can’t, these guys are great puppies and now they are working on potty training.  We built them a little puppy ramp so they can get out the door and on to the deck.  It is so fun!!!

 

If the puppies can eat outside they have their meals in the great outdoors and than like clock work, everyone potties!  Yep it’s true; we stay outside until every one finish their business, than we bring them in so we can hose down the area.  Once that is done if they are still playing we will bring them back out to play for a while.  This is morning two, of a clean pen when we got up in the morning!  I just love that!  Lots of little pee spots but that is so easy to clean up while they are eating, no piles to clean is awesome!  These guys are the best pups around.

 

Okay enough of the bragging – we have so much to cover with these little guys.  Bree went to the vet and weighed in at 4 pounds.  Dr. L. thought she was doing great!  She got another dose of de-wormer and won’t be seen now until she is 7 weeks to get micro chipped and given her first set of shots. 

 

Bree would like to give a great big thank you to her sponsor Melanie Olson.  Thank you so much for caring about RAGOM and their dogs.  We could not do this without you and your support!

Spice has found her forever home and will be joining Joel, Jenene and family in a few short weeks – well 4 weeks to be exact.  Spice is doing well and eating lots of mush and seems to enjoy it.  Spice loves to snuggle up to your leg and put her little head next to you so she can catch the pets of a lifetime. 

 

Spice’s new name will be Bree, we call her Bree 2 because we have two Bree’s now!  Bree will continue on the good food and continue to grow.  Bree and all the pups will be heading to the vet on Friday to get check out again and make sure we do not have any more nasty worms.

 

Bree would like to thank everyone for thinking about her and wanting to adopt her, but she thinks she found the best family around!  Thank you!!!

Spice is doing great and is growing by leaps and bounds.  We went to the vet yesterday and she now weighs 1.4 pounds which right in the middle of the puppy weight.  She received her first dose of de-wormer and the vet said her heart and lungs sound great and there are no signs of a heart murmur.  Yea for Spice!

Spice is doing wonderful with bottle feeding and she also loves to try and get milk from mom.  When it happens we are very happy, but when the puppies are crying and trying to get milk we know we have to help. 

Spice will go back to the vet in a few weeks to get another dose of de-wormer and than she won’t go back until she is 7 weeks for shots and micro chipping.

Spice (girl pup) was the fifth born of 11 pups.  She made her way into this world during her car ride from a breeder in MO to her foster home in Apple Valley, MN.  Spice was born on 4/28 at 7:50 in the early evening.  She will always have a green collar on when we take pictures.  Spice is the final puppy to be born in the car.  Spice really took toll on poor Shanna’s body.

Spice was born at just under one pounds but she fell under a pound at day 2.  However 1 week later she is gaining nicely and now she is right with the pack at 1.2 pounds.  Spice does not mind the formula but she will eat it when she has too.

Thanks for checking on Spice – she will be ready at the end of June for adoption.

Shanna pups are doing great – I just have one picture of where they all go when we have to bring Shanna out – as you can see this won’t last much longer – they are already our growing one basket!  Everyone weighs over 1 pound now which is great news.  Now we just have to keep things going in the right direction.
