| WEEK ELEVEN |

|
This week three more puppies went to their homes. We said our bittersweet goodbyes to Puppy 3 ("Odo"), Puppy 8 ("Sooty") and Puppy 7 ("Ripley"). They have all gone to wonderful homes and their owners are sending us very positive reports. |

| As you can see from this photo, we have lots of good help with raising this litter - Grandma Lupine, Teva, Uncle Tinbie and "Auntie" Cava |

|
| At the end of the week we said goodbye to Teva, who went back home with her owners, Michele and Darren. We noticed that while she still liked to play with her puppies, she was becoming less obsessed by them and we felt it would be alright for her to go home. She was a fantastic mother and we can't thank Darren and Michele enough for letting us have her back for this beautiful litter. We miss her, but it sounds like she is doing very well back in her usual routine in Edmonton. Cava, Lupine and Tinbie are happy to continue teaching the puppies about how to be dogs. |
