Snips & Snails & Puppy Dog Tails..

ZOE
Zoe is settled in the New York country side..
They named her Charlie and is fitting right in!
LOLA
sweet and spunky Lola made it safely to a farm in Florida,
 where she is being spoiled rotten by the cutest girls!

 

They decided to keep her name! So she will forever be our little Lola.
She is extremely curious. She loved watching T.V.


 PRINCESS
Oh, Princess had a rough flight!
 It was the worst experience I have EVER had flying a puppy..
Luckily, Border Collies are tough puppies and even after 24 Hours in her crate,
She hopped out tail a wagging ready to play!
She is now named Maggie May and living the dream in New York..
Getting showered with love from her new family!






Saying goodbye is always hard to do.

The last three waiting for their flights..
Getting oodles of affection from their favorite human..

PHILLIPE
Philippe is as sweet as they come!

There is a reason it is hard to take pictures of Phil..
If he isn't off playing and pouncing on leaves..
 he is climbing in my lap for loves.
Or laying at my feet hanging out..
Philippe went to his new home today!
We are going to miss his puppy kisses!!
He really has so much expression in is fuzzy little face.


 I got most of these pictures as he was getting tired of me moving around him,
trying to get pictures!

We always play a game of "what we would name them if we were keeping them"
And Phil's name is Mickey.. Mostly because we are big fans of Disney.
he looks like Mickey Mouse to me.. ha ha..

Phil is a on the smaller side of the border collie scale.
I'm estimating he will mature about 30lbs at maturity.
He was pretty pooped out from his photo shoot..
Here we are heading in for the night..
Please, pay no attention to the fact I'm wearing my husbands muck shoes.. lol


the TWINS are the first to go..

Bree and Kora went to their new homes this weekend.
It's always a bitter - sweet time for us. We love that they have found good forever homes,
but we get so attached and love each and every one of our puppies!

BREE'S new name is STELLA LUNA
She is going to be her new mom's BFF :)

This is what she had to say after their first weekend together!
"Adjusting really well! I thought she might have trouble eating the first few days but she loves food and didn't miss a beat. At night she only protests for a few minutes in her crate and then settles down to sleep easily, only awake to potty and go right back to sleep. Getting up every two hours round the clock has me feeling like a new mom! LOL! Once she's potty trained, she'll be sleeping with me on my bed and that will be easier. 
So far she loves pig ears, empty water bottles, and her floppy stuffed animal toy the very best. She swam in my aunt and uncles pool on Saturday and loved it. She kept jumping in the shallows when I was looking away. 😂 I didn't know such a small puppy could actually swim on their own, but she kept her head up and everything. I'm hopeful she'll grow up to like the water a lot! My cats seem to love her and my tripod guy even lets her chew on his tail.  
He's the most tolerant and friendly cat I've ever met. Ha. 
 
Needless to say- I'm more than pleased with her go-with-the-flow temperament.
She is a perfect fit for me! Thank you! "

KORA'S new name is PERSY, Short for Persephone.
(I have no idea if I spelled that right..)
 She is going to be spoiled rotten for sure with this cute family!
 Their weekend went well too.. So far no accidents in the house!
She is training her new family well!!

Night Games..

PHILIPPE
Male-Available
Philippe is a darling, well rounded playful but cuddly pup!
His pictures do not do him justice.
He is great with kids, cats and other dogs. LOVES attention.
 He is already showing off his border collie smarts and willingness to please!
He is black & White traditionally marked with a full collar and a stunning rough coat.
Choosing which toy to play with is a game in itself!

Bree & Kora left to their new homes today!
It cooled off so nicely tonight that the pups were extra playful!
I tried to get video and pictures,
but my battery died..Here is what I got!
The video clips are short and sweet so they would upload. 
Who knew swim rings could be such fun?
Zoe is always willing to pose :)
So.. even though princess was looking for the perfect 'spot'
She was so cute doing it, I posted it anyway.. ha ha..
I didn't get much of Lola before my battery died.
I will try to do more tonight!
It is weird to not have all six to play with.
I'm sure they are getting spoiled in their new homes!

He's a KEEPER!

We were at swim lessons today and one of the little kids
said she had  border collie named 'Keeper'I don't know why,
 but I fell in love with the name..
Maybe because borders 'keep' sheep.. ?
 
Anyway, I titled this post 'He's a Keeper' Because Philippe is the cutest little pup. So playful and spunky, but cuddly and loving.. He was reserved at just a week old, but they ran into some financial problems and decided it wasn't the best time to get a puppy. 
"He's a KEEPER".. and will be the perfect addition to any active home.
I do have more pics of Philippe today. Not because I like him the best, but
because he is still looking for his forever family. He is really hard to photograph,
So here is a short clip of the little fluff ball..
The puppies were whining because I was standing right outside their play pen, and they really wanted me to let them out. I have found though it is easier to snap pics when they are a little confined.. lol
 
Bree will be heading to her new home, here in Utah, this weekend!
Kora is also going this weekend. She will be staying in Utah too!
Lola can't go until the end of June..
She is flying to her new home in Florida!
The pups are covered in sand from playing and rolling around in their playpen.
So, dust, shavings and dirt aside.. they still are absolutely adorable!!
Philippe is giving my sunshine kisses..
he is a sweet heart!!
Princess is a mamas girl..
She loves to play and doesn't like getting left out :)
She will be flying to new York!
Zoe is a playful girl, loves attention and is definitely a pleaser!
She is also going to New York, but not the same family. :)
And our little Philippe!
If you are interested in adding this darling pup to your family,
please contact me. I am honestly surprised he hasn't been snatched up.
But I guess that has to do more with my poor photography skills!
