More puppy cuteness…
Frieda's puppies are now 2 1/2 weeks old. They have changed so much! Now their eyes are open, they can hear now and they are walking, albeit a little stumbly sometimes. They are also starting to play together. So cute!https://youtu.be/uHuQzTfDXbs

Newborn puppies
Frieda's 1st litter was born last Monday, the 24th of March. The first puppy was average in size and was born naturally. The second puppy, on the other hand, was much too large and had to be delivered via cesarean. The surgery did go well and the puppy was delivered just in time. Now both male puppies are growing well. https://youtu.be/VC0B0AwnuEo

Winter play
It has been a cold -15 C degrees here this past week, but that didn't prevent Annora and the children spending some time playing out in the snow. We sometimes get asked if German Shepherd Dogs need winter jackets when they go out in the winter. No, not at all! German Shepherd Dogs LOVE winter! During the winter they grow of very thick, dense coat of fur. Only on the coldest of days will their…

Canada Day with Annora
This Canada Day, we made the 8 1/2 hour drive to the Toronto area to meet up with a fellow breeder. Annora has come into heat again and we bred her to a handsome male named Gaston di Federico II di Svevia. After the first mating, it was decided that we would do another one the following day. So instead of simply turning around and driving home as we had originally planned, we were able…

A boy and his dogs
Gabriel had a great time outdoors recently spending time with his dogs. He really enjoys playing with Annora, Frieda, Hilda and Lúthien. He's such a fortunate little boy to have so many furry friends! https://youtu.be/J0UR_alZeNw?si=ne1I1i9yAGAsDwnP

Baths and then playtime
We recently gave the puppies their 1st bath. We try not to give them baths frequently, but sometimes they get so dirty that washing them up is a must. All the children were such a big help with this job. Annora is doing such a excellent job of teaching her pups. If one of the puppies is bullying another one, she'll actually come over and break up the squabble. She is still very devoted to teaching…

Puppies 1st day outdoors
This Monday the weather was finally warm enough to take the puppies outside to play for the 1st time. Even though it was a totally new experience for them, they confidently took it all in. Can you spot the long-haired puppies? As the weeks go by, the differences between the three long-haired puppies and the short-haired puppies are becoming much more obvious. Happy spring, everyone!

Puppies are so cute!
Annora's puppies, at 5 weeks old, are now at a very playful stage. They follow us everywhere and even come when we call them. They are very playful, sociable and curious. We've been suspecting for a while now that there are three long-haired puppies in the litter and this week a fellow breeder confirmed our suspicions. This is the first time we've had long-haired puppies, so we're pretty excited. "Yellow" (a female - left), "Black"…
