DeeJay’s pups are finally starting to wake up and get up on their feet more. This week, since they are eating regularly, we decided to combine them with Ivy’s pups – they are almost the same size as Ivy’s pups despite the 2 week difference in age.
Being with older puppies has meant that DeeJay’s girls have gained a lot of confidence and strength. It’s very cute to watch.
Enjoy the photos of them from this week <3 Cutie patooties
Where have 6 weeks gone?? Time is flying by much faster than I would like it to for these precious little beagle puppies. They are still very small and so I think I will hold onto them for an extra couple of weeks just to make sure they are strong and healthy for going to their new homes.
They are enjoying more time outside now that the weather is not as cold which we are grateful for. They learn so much when they play outside and their little muscles are developing more. I love how curious and confident they are.
I still haven’t heard from akc who the dad/s are – they say maybe 4-6 weeks – sigh – we have waited that long already. hopefully the results will be in before they start going to their new homes.

I will start this with “These pups are overall the smallest I have ever had”. They are healthy, eat well and play like crazy. They are just mini little pocket beagles. 🙂 Just kidding about the pocket beagles – but they are small. The biggest puppy is barely 3lbs and the smallest girl is just over 2lbs.
They are eating 3 solid meals a day and Miss Ivy is a wonderful playmate rather than a nursing momma. She loves her babies so much – but she doesn’t love their sharp teeth.
These pups are now listening to sounds of engines and fireworks. They have a mini staircase and slide to play on and uneven toys so they learn to be stable on their feet. They take each new activity with curiosity and I couldnt be more pleased.
Because it was cold and rainy, we did pictures on the blue chair this week – they look so teeny on it – lol.

DeeJay’s pups are chubby and thriving. They are not walking yet but we are trying to encourage that with some supports under them. Maybe having their first meal this coming week will help.
In the meantime we love their snuggly little selves – and are enjoying the quiet before the storm of busy arrives
Any day it snows unexpectedly, is a good day for our dogs – they just love it. Nick is a little bougie and gets cold, so he has a jacket but everyone else was ready to party in the fluffy flakes that were still falling mid morning.
It’s officially spring. But this morning the heavens opened up and it decided to give us a large dusting of snow. As I type this, it is about 6 inches deep and still snowing.
We donned their little jackets and out we went. We didn’t stay too long as I didn’t want them to be cold, but boy oh boy they had so much fun.
The cavalier pups are so delightful – they go with the flow with anything that is thrown at them. This last weekend we ventured down to Salem Oregon to a dog show. They slept in crates overnight with no potty boxes and kept it clean and dry all night long. Boy were they fast to pee and poop when we let them out in the wee hours of the morning 🙂
They were seen by a regular vet, and an ophthalmologist and all is clear and well – yippee. Now onto their heart check ups with Dr Woodfield this week – I am hoping for good news there too before they go to their amazing new homes. All three of these pups will be deeply missed and are going to the most incredible homes.
Enjoy their final photos of them with me together as babies <3
DeeJay’s 3 little ladies are thriving. They are very mobile and it is not unusual for us to find them tucked in a corner content and sleeping away. What a blessing to have them be so healthy after the loss of their brother.
We have decided to call them strong female names like the power trio they are
Ivy’s pups are strong and healthy. They are starting to wobble around on their little legs and the beginning stages of play is happening – it’s so cute to watch them explore their pen. They have well and truly taken over Ivy’s bed as their own. They know a good thing when they experience it (clearly) 🙂
This week they will experience food for the first time – we will start with goats milk and a little ground beef, with probiotics in it. It’s usually a big hit.
Enjoy their little beagle photos

I feel like the Silver Falls shows deserved it’s own set of brags 🙂 There were 3 All Breed Shows that we attended alongside the CWBC beagle specialty show
I will go down dog by dog, as we had a wonderful weekend
Nick (MBISS MBIS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas ATT CGCU FDC BCAT) won BOVOH and Best Bred by under judge Mrs. Nancy Lovelady in15s. Nick then went on to an OH Group 2 under judge Mr Michael Savage, and a Bred By Hound Group 1 under judge _ and Bred By Reserve Best In Show under judge Regina Lee Bryant – what a day! Nick also won BOV/OH under judge Mrs Pamela Lambie and went on to a Hound Group 4 under judge Dr Camille McArdle DMV. Amazing!
Cardi B (Kazuri’s A Little Sweet A Little Spicy) won 13s Winners Bitch for a 4 point major under Mrs. Nancy Lovelady so now she has both at 6.5 months and only 2 weekends of showing
Milo (Kazuri’s Want Some Milo Magic) in 13s got WD/BOW/Best Opp for a 4 point major under judge Mrs. Nancy Lovelady, and then surprised us all by going WD/BOW and BOV to finish his CH in 2 weekends under judge Mr Nichloas Frost! What a way to finish.

We came home with 3 new champions! To say we were exhausted was an understatement – but thrilled also. Thank you so much to Malia, Dolly, Kayla, Alyssa who stepped into the ring with my dogs to help out with WD/WB. I appreciate you all so much
