puppy love: The Final Chapter

Quincy and Caesar...

..are our two large Standard Poodles, AKC registered, with a smattering of champions in their family trees. They pass on a solid, healthy foundation to their puppies. With three children and plenty of room on our small farm, our puppies are well socialized and exposed to many different things in life to make them an adaptable and easy going puppy, ready for anything life brings their way. They go for rides in the car, they are taken out in public, they go swimming at the park, and they get groomed. As a veterinary technician, I am able to make sure they get the best of medical care. This combination of environment and genetics makes for a wonderful family pet. We still hear from owners of past litters and we have yet to have any issues with any of our pups. They will be sold with a puppy contract, limited AKC registration, food sample, heartworm sample pack, medical record and a mom-scented toy. Email me for more details if you are interested in future litters. Litter planned for DECEMBER 2008!!

The Final Chapter

The only puppy to leave our family in an unconventional way was Thomas. When he broke his leg on his 10th week old birthday, he had to wear a splint for the next 3 weeks, and a light wrap for the last week. I was so lucky to have a friend take on his charge for his rehabilitation. And now Thomas is free of splints, housebroken, and very much coming into his own. He gets to go to work every day with Tammy and stay in the inn at the veterinary clinic. He likes to bark a bit, especially to get a cat's attention. He also likes to "talk"--not a bark but just a "roo roo roo" when you talk to him. Tammy and her husband Ron have graciously opened their home to Thomas officially, and now he is a new resident of Greencastle, PA. He even got a wonderful new name, Lincoln, which I love. It suits him. The best part is that I get to see him once a week at work. So if I ever need a puppy fix, I can get it then. Lincoln will be Tammy's running partner, and he better start getting in shape now, since she runs at least 30 miles a week. But for right now, he can just be the silly pup that he is, and wait for the next cat to come along, so he can bark at it.
