Nails

Today was nail day in the Sweetspot household.  I am pleased to say that the puppies all sat nicely and licked peanut butter off of a spoon while I did their nails.  I like to use a Dremel, but I also use a clippers on the young pups.  You never know when you have to use the clippers.  Here is Sweetspots Bel Canto and Sweetspots Groucho Marx getting her nails done, and she is quite content with the process.

Puppies are going home :(

Lucy Learning to Swim

We are so sad to see most of the puppies have gone to their new homes, but also see the joy that they bring to the people in their new homes.  

I have posted a picture of No Colour Girl who is now Sweetspots Sky with Diamonds - Lucy learning to swim at her new home in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia.  Purple Girl is now Sweetspots Magnetic Attraction - Maggie; Red Girl is now Sweetspots Isabella Snowflake - Isabella; Orange Boy is Sweetspots Four Alarm Fire - Blaze, and Yellow Girl is called Shanti and lives in British Columbia. 

Fun in the Garden

Today the neighbourhood kids came and played with the puppies and it was a hot summer day.  All the puppies played and played and now are sleeping soundly.  I helped my girls to dress up Green Girl in a dress and hat for a photo.  I think it suits her Sepia tones.

Temperament Testing

Today we did temperament tests on the puppies.  There were no surprises, and all the puppies were very confident and gave us another glimpse into their personalities.  It is just another piece of the puppy puzzle.

Here is a picture of them in the kennel sleeping together.  We have two large kennels for them to sleep in, but they always seem to pile into one.

BAER Hearing Testing

Today the puppies had their hearing tests and the result:

8 Bilateral hearing and 2 Unilateral Hearing dogs.  

We have also posted 6 week stacked photos on the website - look under the Puppies 6 Week Photos.

5 Week Stacked Photos

I can't believe that the puppies are 5 weeks old already.  I have put stacked on the website.  If you go to www.sweetspotdals.com you will see them under the puppy page.

Puppies in the Garden

Today it was very warm and all the puppies had a meal and some time running around the garden.  It was great fun to watch them explore.   We are starting to see their personalities develop.  All puppies are confident, and the some just beg for your attention.
