​Saint
**STILL AVAILABLE!**
​Gender: Male
Color: Black with white stripe on his chest
Ribbon Color: Red

4-19-21: Sweet little Saint is 7 weeks old today and the last puppy to find his forever home. Saint has developed from an impish little baby to a very smart, interested and active puppy. He has traded in his trouble maker pull-ups and upgraded to big boy pants (with the occasional puppy shenanigans thrown in for good measure). Saint is very curious and always wants to be with people. We spent the majority of the weekend outside in the beautiful weather building our chicken coop and the three amigos (Pearl, Patrick and Saint) ran around playing and investigating. Saint was always the one sitting right on the outskirts of the activity watching intently, in case he needed to hand us the hammer I'm sure. He never startled with the loud noises and was never discouraged when we couldn't give him constant attention. He loves to romp and play but when you give him the opportunity, he'll run right up to you and want 
to be in your lap. As you can see, he also enjoys the 'lap of luxury'. He loves to join us inside and has  
developed a taste for the back of the couch. I think he enjoys being able to monitor the entire living room and lend a little paw wherever needed.  This kiddo is going to make a great sidekick for the right person or family when they come along!

4-11-21: Have you even seen those Sour Patch Kids commercials? Where they say, "first they're sour, then they're sweet." and the little candies do something mischievous at first, then make up for it with something sweet and endearing? Yep, that's Saint lol. This puppy is great and a perfect blend of sassy puppy, but sweet angel. It's like emotional roulette! 
He weighs 8lbs 10oz. He loves to play. He's inquisitive, brave and impish. He'll follow you around to see what you're doing, but then go his own way if the mood strikes him. He likes to cuddle, but is not overly clingy. His mind goes a mile a minute and shows when he's in the middle of dinner time and then takes off after a butterfly. His spice shows during play when he thinks he's winning and shows a little sass by giving a good puppy growl or uses those puppy teeth on you instead of a toy. This is perfectly normal, but with Saint, you'll have to be ready to show him who is truly at the top of the Totem Pole so to speak. I can see him trying to be mischevious and get away with certain things (like kids), you just have to be ready to show him you don't roll like that! Because, like the candy, he's going to do something super sweet to win back your affection. 

4-4-21: Sweet little Saint is, I feel, the male version of our Patty. He's super engaging, can be that funny type of sassy and is very inquisitive. He loves to explore, is brave enough to go out on his own and is one of the first puppies to try new things. He's not as mouthy as Patty but definitely has a whole vocabulary. He loves attention and loves meeting new people. Today, at 5 weeks old, Saint weighs 6lbs 8 oz and is a nice middle of the road size. 
 ​

3-28-21: At 4 weeks old Saint weighs 4lbs 4oz. He was wide awake and very interactive during his photo shoot. He was curious, moved around the whole time and was not afraid of anything. This puppy has a great sense of discovery. I can't wait to see how he grows up!

3-21-21: Weighing 3lbs 2oz at 3 weeks old Saint is on the move! He's walking (not gracefully) all over the whelping box, over his brothers, over his sisters, over his mom...and anything else he can. He has discovered what his legs can do and he isn't wasting any more time!  ​

3-14-21: Normally the vocal one of the group, today Saint sang a different tune...or rather no tune at all lol! He laid sound asleep for pictures and behaved like a little angel. Today, at 2 weeks old Saint weighs 2lbs 3 oz.

3-7-21: What a pretty baby this one is, extra curly, that adorable little white lightning bolt on his chest, and I think the red just looks good on a black puppy. I think it's his 'signature color' lol. Today at 1 week old Saint weighs 1lb 6oz. 

3-2-21: Winnie's 3rd son was born 5th in line at 2:45pm and weighed in at 12 oz. He was our first baby that gave us a little surprise and has an adorable little white star on his chest! Or as I like to call it, an angel kiss lol.

Guinness
New Name: He is staying ‘Guinness’
​Gone home with the Barnhart family
Gender:
Male
Color: Solid Black
Ribbon Color: Blue


4-11-21: Holy cow you guys, the kids are already 6 weeks old! How is this a thing?!?It seems like just last week Winnie was giving birth and I was panicking about how long it was taking Jig to make her appearance!! I guess that's life. Well, at 6 weeks old the kids are finally leveling out as to what their true temperaments are going to be as adults. There are still some changes appearing here and there, but for the most part, they have
arrived! Mr. Guinness apparently did not like that his brother Lucky too the heavy weight belt from him and is gaining weight like a champ (pun intended) and now weighs. Guinness's personality is great. He has just enough spice to keep him interested in things, keep him curious and keep you laughing. This puppy wants to play, play, play! He's less than graceful right now as he waddles along and trips on his own two front paws every 3rd stride it seems. But does that stop him? Nope! He keeps his eye on the target and keeps going. He loves people and loves to engage. He still has a bit of that 'baby' personality where
if he's unsure of something, or tired and whiny, he wants his 'mama'. When I say 'mama' I mean, anyone to comfort and cuddle him. He loves attention and affection, wants to play non-stop and is a BIG BOY! At 6 weeks old Guinness weighs 9lbs 11oz. Be ready for a 70 pounder with this kid! 

4-4-21: Happy Easter everyone! The babies are 5 weeks old and so much fun! Personalities are growing daily as are the puppies themselves! They love their 'furry slurry' as we like to call it and rarely nurse from mom anymore. They have graduated from just the inside whelping box to their 'in and out' kennel' comprised of a contained area inside and through a doggie door, they have access to a kennel on the outside. They are getting the hang of using the doggie door and
are beginning the potty train using their puppy litter box. Sweet little Guinness at 5 weeks old is a hefty handsome boy weighing in at 7lbs 2oz! Holy moly! This puppy is going to be a big big boy. Be ready for a dog that's at least 70lbs with this kiddo! His personality hold true to his size and Guinness is truly a gentle giant. He loves attention and is less of a trailblazer than his big bro' Lucky. He sits back and watches and is encouraged to join by watching other puppies. If he finds himself alone, he cries and would much rather be in a group or with someone. He loves to be cuddled and nurtured which is good because it's impossible to look at his chubby little rolls and not want to squish him. 

3-28-21: Spring has sprung for our little sprouts! So many firsts around here and we are all enjoying the beautiful weather! I hope I didn't just jinx it...lol. The babies had their first taste of solid food today. I'm pretty sure they wore more than they ate but they loved every minute of it. Apparently no amount of cleaning from Winnie or myself could fully clean their little faces, so please excuse the 'puppy mash pictures'. The babies are all walking and talking and personalities are shining through! Quite the little gently giant so far, Guinness 


weighs 4lbs 11oz today! He is sweet, quiet and loves to be cuddled. He sits up and wathces the rest of the gang get rambunctious and then must suffer from sympathy exhaustion becuse he plops down and takes a nap. Of course Guinness jumped feet first (literally) into his puppy mash and enjoyed enough to feed a puppy twice his size. 

3-21-21: 
Welcome to 3 weeks old! Our 'little monsters' have their eyes and ears open and are starting to explore and play! Some have found their voices and some have taken their first steps! They weeble and wobble around the whelping box, bark and growl at eachother, when they see mom coming for feeding time they move faster than ever and they can now hear me talk to them! Things are getting interesting! The babies also had their 1st deworming today and were not impressed. Today, baby Guinness weighs 3lbs 6oz and is just a snuggly squishy little baby!​

3-4-21: Happy almost St. Patricks Day everyone! In honor of the upcoming holiday and the theme of this litter, I decided to go with an appropriate background! The litters eyes and ears have finally opened and they are adjusting well to all the new stimuli! At 2 weeks old, Guinness weighs 2lbs 7 oz!

3-7-21: 1 week old and the babies have almost doubled in size! All are doing amazing and have already had some visitors. At 1 week old Guinness weighs 1lb 6oz. Another super exciting piece of news...as they grow, their coat color and nose color is developing, I do believe we have 2 brown puppies in this litter, and Guinness is one of them. We'll see how he progresses with maturity, but for now...look at those wrinkles!

3-2-21: First born at 1:06pm was our chubbiest puppy and Winnie's 1st son! In celebration of this hefty and 'stout' little boy, what other Irish name than Guinness? This boy weighed in at 1lb and has wrinkles for days!

‘Patty’
New Name: ‘Pearl’
Staying here with us!
​Gender:
Female
Color: Solid Black
Ribbon Color: Pink


4-11-21: Precious Princess Patty as I love to refer to her weighs 8lbs 12oz at 6 weeks old. You guys, I found my puppy! From day 1 I thought I'd want Jig because of her cool brownish-black coat. But then I said to myself, "self...follow your own rule and wait until they're older to pick your puppy! Because what do you tell other families, when they're first born, all you're going off of is gender and color!" Turns out, I'm glad I listened to myself. Patty has turned out just like her mom Winnie and her
sister Rogue...she's sassy yet classy! Her sweet innocent half has fallen to the wayside and she has put on her sassy pants and tries to rule the roost. Patty is smart, loving but holy cow she tries to see how far she can go before she gets in trouble. Give an inch take a mile is Patty's M.O. But I love it. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment because that's exactly what Winnie and Rogue were like as puppies. They
were the alpha females of the litter and pushed buttons all the time. We had several 'come to Jesus' talks during their adolescence but everything turned out great. I already know what I'm naming this diamond in the rough. Her new name is 'Pearl'. If any of you know me, I'm a huge Disney fan and my all time favorite ride at Disney since childhood is The Pirates of the Carribean. Once Johnny Depp graced the screen as Captain Jack Sparrow, commander of The Black Pearl, I loved it even more. So there you have it, I have my very own Black Pearl. I'm looking forward to having another mouthy teen in my home. I think I may be certifiable.

4-4-21: Princess Patty of the 3 girls is the most outgoing AND outspoken! Man-o-man does this little girl have an opinion and lets you know about it. She's very inquisitive and engaging. She likes to wander and explore and follow you until something else proves more interesting. At 5 weeks old she weighs 6lbs 9oz. Patty wears her sassy pants frequently and I catch her often 'throwing down' with her big brothers Guinness and Lucky. Whatever they can do...so can she ;)

3-28-21: At 4 weeks old Patty weighs 4lbs 8oz. Patty is calm cool and collected so far. She's alert and always aware of her surroundings, but her preference is to sit on the side lines with a couple other siblings and nap. Patty loved her puppy mash today and ate so much it looked like she'd swallowed an orange. So far, Patty seems the strong silent type. We'll see how she progresses!

3-21-21: Sweet little Patty weighs 3lbs 6 oz at 3 weeks old. She remains pretty calm and lazy at this age. She loves to sleep and I always find her at the bottom of the puppy pile, sprawled out, on her back and half the time, her tongue is hanging out...talk about livin' your best life! 


3-14-21: 2 weeks old and miss Patty weighs 2lbs 7oz! Quite the squirmy one I had to wait a good 10 minutes for this little one to settle down in order to take some good pictures!

​3-7-21: 1 week old and pretty little Patty is the 2nd biggest puppy in the litter, today she weighs 1lb 7oz and remains one heck of a black beauty!

3-2-21: Born at 1:20pm was Winnie's 1st daughter, Pink Patty! She weighs in at 15.6oz and can truly strike a pose.

​Shamrock
New Name: Shadow Fax (from LOTR!)
Gone home with the Binggeli family
Gender:
Male
Color: Solid Black
Ribbon Color: Green


4-11-21: I won't lie folks...I am super jealous of whoever takes this baby home. Sham is gaining weight by leaps and bounds. It just goes to show what a good meal will do for you. He's gaining weight at the fastest rate of all the puppies. The others average around 1-1.5lbs per week...Shamrock is averaging 1.5-2lbs! At 6 weeks old he weighs 6lbs 2oz. He is the perfect size and I think will continue down that path. He's build like a perfect little square with a nice round belly. Nothing stops him from participating in anything nowadays. I think his mindset is, "puh-lease, I grew up the smallest of 3 sisters and 4 brothers AND fell behind the curve at 3 weeks old, I can handle anything." Way to go buddy! He loves to engage and play but always remains polite about it. He's not overly obnoxious, loud or aloof. He loves to cuddle, but also has no problems being alone. He eats like a
champ and we have not heard hid nor hair of that weird gurgly sound he used to make while bottle feeding. Sham is so cool, calm and collected that I feel like he's an old soul. Nothing really shakes him. All that extra attention and
 socialization he got during his 'episode' I think really helped develop his tolerance level of changes going on around him. Cool and level headed is this guy. The true underdog turned hero story. 

4-4-21: Little Sham just keeps getting better and better. Everyday he proves there's nothing wrong and he's just as good as all the rest! Shamrock now weighs 4lbs 2oz and continues to gain weight at an amazing rate. He scarfs down his 'furry slurry' with no problems and sports the best puppy chow moustache ever! Shamrock's temperament is a gem as well. He is a great chill, laid back little dude. He plays with his siblings, grabs his toys and pounces like the rest of them but on a very mild scale. He doesn't mind being on is own, is not afraid, but also does not mind being with the group or being cuddled. He's a go-with-the-flow kinda guy. Also, I think I've only heard him bark like twice and whine once maybe...he's not mouthy or opinionated. He just loves life and enjoys whatever comes his way. I'm thinking as an adult, Sham will reach around 50ish lbs.

3-28-21: I have awesome news about our little underdog! Since last Sunday, I've shed quite a few tears, given lots of cuddles, taken lots of kisses and fed many bottles. All of our work has paid off because now, at 4 weeks old, this little baby is up 14oz from last week and now weighs 2lbs 7oz! Can I get a woop woop!?! I took Shamrock to work with me everyday since I saw he wasn't gaining weight. I fed him throughout the day, allowed him to be back with Winnie and his siblings through the night and kept up on his antibiotics. He rarely makes his gurgly/coughing noises anymore and only seems to do it when he's drinking from the bottle and getting too much at once. The doctors chalked it up to 'he's just a weird bottle eater!' I'll take it! He's growing right on track again, walks around and plays with his siblings and the only difference is his size. He's my little feather-weight fighter! 

3-23-21: *Update* I’ve noticed several changes in Shamrocks condition since Sunday. On the good side, he is gaining weight. Along with isolating him and Winnie together, I supplement him with puppy milk replacer several times throughout the day. A newer, not-so-awesome, discovery is that during feeding, Shamrock seems to gurgle or gag on his milk, wether it be from mom or a bottle. I brought him to work and had 3 doctors I work with check him out. There is no cleft pallet and no heart murmur. We took X-rays to check for pneumonia and mega-esophagus and found neither. This is all good news. The doctors say that anatomically, he’s perfectly normal. We placed him on oral liquid antibiotics to make sure that he doesn’t develop a pneumonia from possibly aspirating milk. Other than his strange sounds, he is happy, alert, active and LOVES to eat. These are all wonderful and encouraging signs. I’m keeping a close eye on him.

3-21-21: At 3 weeks old, I'm a little concerned about this sweet baby. Nothing too drastic (so far) but instead of gaining weight this week, Shammy has lost 1 oz. At this age, puppies normally double their weight every week, so far, since birth that's what Shamrock has done, but this week he only weighs 1lb 9oz. I'm watching him closely, he seems to be nursing fine, he's mobile, and staying warm. I feel this may just be a case of 'mealtime bullying'. Several other puppies are much larger and stronger and Shammy may not be strong enough to hang on to the teat he finds when one of the bigger puppies comes along. I will now separate Shammy from the rest of the litter several times a day and allow him to nurse on mom all by himself. I'll be weighing him every day and hoping to see some weight gain.  

3-14-21: Fast asleep during his photo shoot, this baby had no problems 'posing' for the camera...but lets be honest...I posed him lol. At 2 weeks old lil' Shammy is 1lb 10oz. 

3-7-21: Sweet little Shammy is one of two of the more average sized puppies in this litter. Winnie and Haus tend to have titans for puppies...little Shammy is one of our 'basic' babies. At 1 week old he weighs 15.5oz. 

3-21-21: A 2nd son was born not 5 minutes later at 1:24pm that we dubbed Shamrock. He weighed in at 9.9oz, and right away, I could tell he was a Mama's boy!

​Clover
New Name: CoCo Rose
Gone home with the Hanson family
​Gender:
Female
Color: Solid Black
Ribbon Color: Purple


4-11-21: I want the sweetest puppy in the litter. The one that can't stop wagging her tail and gives kisses for days. The one that never wants to leave my side, wants to play and wants to cuddle at night while I binge Netflix. Order Up! That is Clover to a 't'. At 6 weeks old and 7lbs 13oz Miss Clover can still be picked out the litter just by looks. She has that adorably sweet round head, huge round eyes and floppy hound dog ears that give you the type of feels that say, "Oh my gosh I just want to squeeze your
face!" in that aggressive type tone. You know the one I mean lol ;) Clover loves to be held and cuddled but also has no problem being on her own. Many times, if she's uncertain of situations, she finds a nice quiet covert location where she can observe and then join in when she knows it's safe. She's smart and funny and she is so tender hearted. She's soft and sensitive to where I don't think training her will be an issue. She thrives on the tone of your voice. Praise her and talk sweet and she's in heaven. She's smart and funny and she is so tender hearted. She's soft and sensitive to where I don't think training her will be an
 issue. She thrives on the tone of your voice. Praise her and talk sweet and she's in heaven. But a harsh tone, or a stern 'no' and she knows she does not like that, and stops whatever she's doing. This sweet little puppy is a heart melter. 

4-4-21: Wow. What a sweet angelic little baby Clover is. I can spot her out of the pack immediately without seeing her collar. She has huge round eyes, a perfect little round head and huge droopy hound dog type ears. She has that face that just melts you. At 5 weeks old Cover weighs 5lbs 9oz. Her temperament is a sweet, gentle, submissive, people-pleaser type. She sees you coming and wags her tail, dips her head and looks up at you. It's the 
classic 'I love you so much and I don't want to appear dominating' type of body language. I would not be surprised if this girl grew up to be a smiler. She gets a touch of the zoomies now and again and pounces, play bows and attacks her stuffed toys as if it's personal! She is not an alpha puppy by any means. She likes to nap in a spot of shade with a couple other puppies rather than join the shenanigans. What an absolutely amazing little girl. 

3-28-21: Clover weighs 3lbs 12oz at 4 weeks old. This baby was the first puppy to wag her tail! It's just as precious as it sounds! Clover is inquisitive yet calm. She loves cuddles but also like to chill on her own. She can be super rambunctious and likes to jump on her siblings, but the next minute she's passed out on the bottom of a poodle puppy pile 

3-21-21: Little miss Clover is the first puppy to show some personality! I caught her the other day biting at the scruff and ears of her brother Guinness. He just laid there like he usually does and she even stood up and wobbled over him, 


growling and acting super tough. I'm pretty sure it was the cutest thing I have ever seen! At 3 weeks old Clover weighs 2lbs 11oz. 

3-14-21: 2 weeks old and 1lb 13 oz, Clover was quite stubborn during picture time. I tried to get her to lay on her side, but she INSISTED that she wanted to be upright. Fine...have it your way. 

3-7-21: Cute little Clover weighs 1lb 1oz today at 1 week old. 

3-2-21: Following the gender pattern, was Winnie's 2nd daughter, weighing in at 11oz. Our sweet Clover was born at 2:32pm.

​Patrick
Going home with the Hallman family
​Gender:
Male
Color: Solid Black
Ribbon Color: Orange

4-11-21: At 6 weeks old and 7lbs 15oz Patrick is the strong silent type. Patrick has changed the most I feel in these last weeks. He has shown that now, he's more that easy going, engage when the mood strikes, but he enjoys being the mysterious puppy, sitting by himself watching the shenanigans. Patrick is cool, calm and collected. He doesn't make much noise and enjoys being a hall-monitor type. When his 'puppy gene' kicks in, he loves to drag poor defenseless toys across the yard and give them a good shake. He loves to plow into his siblings at a dead
run and then when they're stunned, pounce on them. I think playing dirty appeals to him. Patrick doesn't mind being cuddled and kissed. He's very tolerant and when he's had enough, he finds a good spot to lay down and pass out. This puppy is a great 50/50 combination of independent and partner material.
4-4-21: Mr. Patrick is a great well-rounded puppy so far. At 5 weeks old he weighs 5lbs 11oz. Patrick loves to engage in whatever is going on. It could be playing keep away from his siblings with a toy, follow the leader, chase the leaf or play a friendly game of 'high-five' with a new human he just met. Patrick is hilarious to watch. He bounces, pounces and somehow ends up upside down and backward. He never seems to have a bad day. Wait...I take that back...there was that one time he wiggled under the empty firepit and couldn't wiggle back out without assistance...he said that was a little embarrassing. 

3-28-21: What a fun little puppy Patrick is turning out to be! He is so playful when it comes to interacting with his siblings. He barks, jumps and bites at their ears and tails. He's curious, inquisitive and sassy. It's hysterical to watch. During his photo shoot he began to use his paws and swat at me to try and play. The picture to the left looks cute and innocent like he's trying to cuddle his bug...but don't be fooled, this was literally seconds before he tried to pull the bugs antennae off!

3-21-21: How cute is this baby?!? Little Patrick is 2lbs 15oz at 3 weeks old and is quite the curious little puppy. He sits up, watches everything and slowly walks over to investigate. I love how alert he is becoming!

3-14-21: Precious little Patrick weighs 1lb 15 oz at 2 weeks old. He had a couple ants in his pants during his photo shoot, but eventually settled down. 


3-7-21: Mr. Cuddle bug here! Patrick already loves being held, complains the least and will fall asleep in your arms in just about any position...as long as he's not hungry! At 1 week old, Patrick weighs 1lb 2oz.

3-2-21: The 1st puppy to break our 'boy-girl-boy-girl' pattern was Winnie's 4th son, born at 3:44pm. In honor of our little rebel, and that his brother 'Saint' preceded him, of course, we named this guy 'Patrick'. This baby weighed in at 11.5oz.

​Jig
New Name: Lily
Gone home with the Baldwin family
​Gender:
Female
Color: Black/Brown
Ribbon Color: Yellow

4-11-21: At 6 weeks old little Jig remains a lot like her brother Shamrock with her own little twist. 7lbs 13oz and she's a calm, cool and collected little girl and implements those traits while also being very curious, playful and happy. This puppy has never shown a sour spirit, been scared and ran away or tried to dominate or bully any of her siblings. She goes with the flow, checks out all the activity around her and joins in on whatever is most interested at that time. Jig loves people, loves to play, cuddle or pounce on unsuspecting shoes passing by. She's extremely curious and super smart. She was one of the first puppies to figure out the doggie door and better yet, figure
out how to get back in through the doggie door. Unlike a lot of the puppies that cry and act like all hope is lost when they can't figure something out, you can see the wheels turning inside this girls head and sure enough, she's figures it out. Jig is super brave and confidant as well, so even if she can't figure something out, she moves on and doesn't pout. What an amazing little girl!

4-4-21:
 Jig is a lot like her brother Shamrock. She is a very independent, calm, cool and collected gal. Nothing really phases her, she's not a complainer and pretty much goes with the flow. There are usually always 4 puppies who I find chilling either in a group with each other watching the show or napping somewhere on their own. Those puppies are Shamrock, Dublin, Jig and Clover. These puppies don't have the need to get into trouble or stir the pot. They like the laid back scene. Don't get me wrong, they're still puppies. They do their share of romping, playing and being adorable, but have a natural tendency to just chill. They aren't insecure or fearful and can do just fine on their own. If I personified them... they'd be the blonde, tousled haired guys on the beach holding their surf boards. The Scoobies and Shaggy's of the world. Whatever comes along, they take in stride. 
  ​

3-28-21: Our little Jig weighs 3lbs 11oz at 4 weeks old. She's starting to really sport her Hollywood highlights of brown throughout her coat. It's beautiful especially in the sunlight. So far Jig is reserved and quiet. She startles a bit when new noises happen but the great news is that it doesn't last long. She shakes it off immediately and eventually falls back to sleep.  

3-21-21: Jig weighs 2lbs 10oz at 3 weeks old and is showing more brown in her coat every day. Jig has found her voice and does a great Chewbacca 
impression! If she hears any type of strange sound, she growls and huffs and is so proud of herself!

3-14-21: Oh my sweet little angel that corked the hole for 2 HOURS! LOL, I still love her. At 2 

weeks old this brown baby weighs 1lb 11oz. Her color is holding fast and you can always pick her out of the litter right away!
 

3-7-21: Jig and her brother Guinness are the 2 puppies in the litter I'm keeping a close eye on. As they grow, their coat color is developing and I do believe these 2 may actually be brown colored poodles like their daddy. Only time will tell. You can definitely see a big difference in the color ofJig's coat compared to everyone else's. At 1 week old Jig weighs 1lb 0.6oz. 

3-2-21: 
My, oh my, where do I start with this girl? This one had me slightly panicked because after 'Patrick' was born at 3:44pm we waited 3 HOURS for this next puppy to arrive! I was worried Winnie was too tired, the puppy might be too big, might be in a difficult position...and I won't even mention the worst thoughts that went through my head! I went to the dark place for a second. We knew that no matter what gender this puppy was, we were naming it Jig. Something about that word just said, "holding up the line!" Finally after hours of pushing, Winnie LITERALLY shot this baby out. Healthy and screaming, Jig finally came into this world at 6:42pm weighing 10.5oz! And now I have 10 extra gray hairs!

Lucky
Gone home with the Thomas family
​Gender:
Male
Color: Black with a small white spot on his chest
Ribbon Color: Black

4-11-21: Lucky remains the class clown of the litter but has also developed a bit of a mischievous streak. At 6 weeks old and 9lbs 2oz he has learned how to use his size and if he wants something from his brothers or sisters, he'll just sit on them and take it. It's quite the classic 'big brother' move. When it comes to people however, Lucky could not be happier. He wants to be touched, loved and cuddled. Play time never stops for him and wherever you go, he wants to follow. He's interested in
everything you do and it literally under your feet trying to participate. I've learned to shuffle my feet around Lucky. This puppy does not know any emotion but happy. His tail never stops and when there's something that peaks his curiosity, there's no animal that looks more regal than Lucky. He stands at full attention, ears up nose pointed and tail strait up in the air. When I take pictures, I like to imagine him posing, glancing at me out of the corner of his eye and saying, "mom, take the picture, this is my good side." What a ham, and a plump, happy, goofy ham at that.
4-4-21: I'd like to introduce everyone to the class clown of the group! Weighing in at 7lbs 3 oz Lucky stands out among the rest as a fan favorite. Everyone who meets him loves him. If not only for his chubby rolls, but for his amazing personality. This guy LOVES PEOPLE! He is extremely independent and will follow anyone anywhere. He is the puppy who holds many awards for 'firsts'. First to climb out of the whelping box, first to bark, first to climb onto the porch, first to fall off the porch etc etc. Nothing stops this baby or deters him for that matter. This puppy is going to be a handful, but in a great way. He's wants to be engaged. He is not a couch potato. Whatever you're doing, he wants to be doing it. He's curious, friendly and impish. He's also a talker. If he doesn't like something, you'll know about it. I also have a feeling he's going to love the water. Why you ask? Only because we found him bathing in the giant water dish we put out for them today. This little guy is going to be so much fun to experience growing up!

3-28-21: Why the shades? Because when you're cool...the sun always shines! I've said it before and I'll say it again...HOLY MOSES! This baby still holds the belt for heavy weight champ because at 4 weeks old he weighs 5lbs 1oz! And yet another cliche...but so true...Lucky is such a gentle giant. He made best buds with a 3 year old little boy this weekend. He couldn't get enough of him. He climbed in his lap and reached up and could not stop kissing his face. The two were inseparable for a good hour and if at any point Lucky couldn't find him...he'd actually sit and bark and cry. There might be a little drama king running through his veins. What a great little puppy.  

3-21-21: If I didn't actually see the other puppies nursing on mom, I would think this baby was just tapping into an endless supply of milk. At 3 weeks old this puppy weighs ​

3lbs 14 oz. Holy cow! He loves to nap and eat! He is the best snuggler and has found his voice as well. He woofs, barks and I've even caught him howling! 

3-14-21: 
At 2 weeks old Lucky still holds the belt for the heavy weight champ at 2lbs 12 oz! My oh my, he wanted attention during this photo op and he let it be known! He found his voice and was woofing, grunting and impersonating Chewbacca to the best of his abilities. Needless to say, it worked and he got all of the cuddles. 

3-7-21: Holy cow how only 1 week can make such a difference! Step aside Guinness, we have a new heavy weight in town! Tipping the scales at 1lb 12oz, Lucky is now the biggest puppy in the litter! Needless to say this hefty fella always gets the best seat at the milk-bar, but like every gentle giant, he's always ready to share. 

3-2-21: 
Winnie's 5th son was born 7th at 7:55pm. Almost as chubby as his brother 'Guinness' and with an angel kiss like his brother 'Saint', 'Lucky' weighs in at 15oz. The picture to the left shows just how smitten mama Winnie is with this boy. She couldn't take her eyes off him.

​Dublin
Going home with the Bray family
Gender:
Male
Color: Black with a white spot on his throat
Ribbon Color: White

4-11-21: There are 3 puppies in this litter that I like to describe as 'old souls'. Shamrock, Jig and Dublin. I've used this phrase several times already but calm, cool and collected are these 3 to a 't'. Dublin still has that awesome little face that stands out in the litter just like his sister Clover. 6 weeks old and 6lbs 10oz he has a round little head, droopy hound dog type ears and big round soulful eyes. Dublin is so chill nothing phases him. He is the most tolerant puppy in the litter along with Shamrock. He's just as curious as the rest of the group, but doesn't
scare easy and I don't think I've ever heard him bark. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body, has never picked on any of his brothers or sisters and since he is one of the 2 smallest in the litter, he is used to being rolled around, squished under the cuddle puddle and all the rest of the things you do to little brothers. All of this has made for
a puppy that can handle anything that comes his way. He loves to be snuggled and I can see many couch potato days watching movies with his family in his future. He does enjoy play time with a good toy, but it's as zealous about it like Guinness or Saint. What a dream dog.  

4-4-21: 
Just like his sister Clover, Dublin has a face that stands out from the litter. He's got such a sweet petite face, floppy hound dog ears and big eyes that just beg for cuddles. Dublin is part of the independent group of 4 puppies I mentioned earlier in Jig's description, that are very cool, calm and collected. Dublin goes with the flow and nothing really bothers him. He'll engage in play and have his adorable puppy moments, but for the most part, he's very chill. He's not fearful or aloof and can be just as comfortable sleeping in the pile of puppies as he can on his own. He's not a clingy puppy at all. Whatever situations presents itself, he just deals. Dublin weighs 4lbs 14oz a 5 weeks old. 

3-28-21: What a beautiful little baby Dublin is growing up to be. Besides his baby brother Shamrock, Dublin is our smallest baby. At 4 weeks old Dublin weighs 3lbs 2oz. Nothing stops this baby and nothing phases him either. He has no idea how much smaller he is than the rest of his siblings. He works his way into the puppy pinwheel around the food dish and eats his fill. He plays, barks and those big brown eyes could get him out of any mischief he found!

3-21-21: Dublin weighs 2lbs 4 oz at 3 weeks old and is bright eyed and bushy tailed. He watches all the happenings around him and woofs in response. He is moments away from taking his first steps but army-crawls like a champ!

3-14-21: Ok, first of all, how cute is this picture?!? Well, Dublin may be the smallest of the litter, but he eats to feed an army! I could NOT get him to stop trying to nurse the blanket he was on during his photo shoot! That's why, if you look close, you can see my hand in his picture to the left. I had to lift his head off the blanket so I could get a good shot of his face! The good news is...I caught a yawn just in time to snap a picture. At 2 weeks old, Dublin weighs 1lb 5oz. 

3-7-21: Wee little Dublin is still quite 'wee' at 1 week old. Don't worry, he's happy healthy and growing great, he's just still the smallest little nugget in the group. At 1 weeks old Dublin weighs a whopping 12oz. Our little button. 


3-2-21: Last, but definitely not least, a 6th son and Winnie's 9th and final baby was born at 8:43pm. This little pip-squeak is the tiniest of the litter weighing in at only 8.8oz. Don't worry, though, that doesn't stop him from getting some of the best seats at the milk bar!
