Look at these beautiful babies and their Momma! Not the easiest thing ever, to get photos of 11 day old pups, but I wanted you all to see how beautiful they are.
Day two with these lovely doggies has come to an end and things are going exceptionally well. We’d like to introduce you to these beautiful puppies, all looking for kind and loving forever homes where they will never have to live as their mother did.
Maddie is settling in beautifully. She absolutely loves people, young and… older. The second any of us approach her she is all tail wags and happy dog sounds. She allows all of us, including our 4 year old son, to gently handle her puppies, though she does keep a close watch on them.
It seems that, as is the case sometimes with dogs, Maddie has not let her rough early life affect her sweet and gentle personality – she’s an absolutely calm and charmingly sweet dog.
We “enjoyed’ our first bath today and Maddie smells much nicer and looks so pretty. Her fur is so soft that you could spend hours stroking it and she’d be happy to let you. She makes lovely doggies groans of joy when she is petted and loves to snuggle right up and give back some affection of her own.
We are treating her wounds and her eye irritations and working on getting what is likely months worth of discharge cleaned up carefully so that she can begin to heal. Even this she endures with sweet doggy gentleness, allowing us to apply ointment and drops without a fuss.
She is on the submissive side, preferring to take a non-confrontational stance when faced with the other dogs in our home. We have had no accidents in the house, no barking and absolutely no signs of aggression or guarding behaviors.
Our best guess is that this darling is a mix of lab/beagle/husky and what mix her pups might be is hard to tell. What we can tell you is that a beautiful and gentle soul had entered our home and when the time comes for her to move to her forever home she is the type of dog that will remain in our hearts forever.
