12 Weeks Old!



Brazos








Durango









Grady









Annie Oakley

Meet & Greet tomorrow!

Durango, Annie Oakley, Brazos, & Grady will be at the Meet & Greet tomorrow looking for their Forever Families-- come check them out! (1-4 PM at the Great Hills Trail PETCO)

We posted some new photos in their photo albums- look for more photos in the next few days of their out-of-the-crate meals and working on "sit"!

Annie is still the shy one but oh-so-sweet. She is Jason's favorite-- a real Daddy's girl! Big boy Durango is such a handsome boy-- and nearly two pounds bigger than his littermates. He is MY favorite! Brazos and sweet Grady are still the escape artists! Grady is so independent-- and still Ben's favorite. He may look the least like a Heeler in coloring (though his ears, tail, and body shape are right on), but we think he is the most Heeler-like in intelligence and temperament. Brazos is adorable and the clown of the bunch. He is the favorite of Ben's friends.

Good Luck, Calamity Jane & Frisco!

Darling CJ & Frisco each went to their trial foster-to-adopt homes this weekend. They both have a Heeler big sister to show them the ropes at their new homes and with their new families, and we are so pleased for both dogs and their new families. Hopefully we will have updates to report on soon.

In the meantime, having just 4 of Rosie's puppies means more changes here. They will begin eating their meals out of the crates now and begin working on some basic obedience commands (starting with "sit" and getting used to a leash). We will also begin challenging their housebreaking a little more and begin training them on a bell system to let us know when they want to go out.

Big Week

Well, it's here... the first of the puppies will go to their new home this weekend! The pups did great and were a big hit at last weekend's Meet & Greet, and they will have another chance to charm people and find their Forever Families this weekend (Great Hills Trail PETCO from 1-4 PM on Saturday 7/21).

In the meantime, they have been busy boys and girls, playing and exploring. They are all so cute-- they are all our favorites now!!!

Annie Oakley

Miss Annie Oakley has a real Wild West independent streak! She loves to pal around with her buddy C.J. and get into mischief while they play and perform various puppy antics. Good Show, y'all!

Brazos

Brazos is the smallest boy but he has an extremely adventurous spirit!! He is such a curious little guy! Along with his buddy, Grady, he can't wait to get out and see what is going on in the world. He was the very first pup to "escape" from the kitchen on his own!

C.J. ("Calamity Jane")

Petite C.J. likes to play with the big dogs, Luci & Vegas. She is a super playful puppy and a real beauty too.

Durango

Mama's boy!! Durango is the biggest puppy and so fuzzy and snuggly. He is an easy-going charmer.

Frisco

Frisco loves people. He grouses loudly when we are not with him and will choose to hang around us over his siblings when he has the chance. He is also sooooo cute with his black circles around his eyes! He is a real Daddy's Boy.. Jason's favorite puppy from the beginning.

Grady

Grady is the boldest of the pups. He was the first to "escape" from their crate as a 4-week old, the second to escape from the kitchen and the first off the porch as a 6-week old, and the first to escape through the ex-pen AND gate at 8 weeks! He is always curious about what is out in the big world. He is a very sweet and outgoing puppy.
