Off To Their New Homes

Growing Up
 
Off to their New Homes :: a ReCap

Nico and Arabella have produced a litter beyond my expectations. These puppies all have enormous bones and heads, good confirmation and temperaments to die for. They have all gone to wonderful families who have promised to keep me posted on the puppy's progress and of course lots of pictures. Please enjoy the slide show of the day they each left with their new families. [pictures]

Shilah aka Nala went to her new family on Memorial Day. She was 7wks and weighed 14 lbs 8 oz. She has a very sweet med/soft temperament. She now lives with her new family in Merchantville, NJ. She will have two little girls ages 5 & 7 as her best friends to grow up with. Needless to say she has captured their hearts and those of their family and friends.

 

Simba went to his new home on June 10th three days after he turned two months (9 wks). He weighed 22 lbs 8 oz and is the biggest sweetheart. He is massive, but even through all the fur you can still feel his ribs. His bone is to die for. The vet and I both agree that we think he is going to end up being bigger than his daddy Nico and Nico is a really big boy. Like his sisters his temperament is to die for. He is going to be like his daddy a lower end of med/soft, sensitive and very eager to please. Simba will be living in Briarcliff Manor, NY with his new owner Dmitry and a very large cat. Dmitry waited a year to get a male puppy from Nico. I know that his dreams are going to be met in his new family member. Simba is so much like Nico that we nicknamed him little dark Nico. Enjoy his pictures. More will follow as they come in.

Kayla left with her new family on June 12th. Like her brother she weighed in at 22 lbs 8 oz, has massive bones and a great temperament. Unlike her brother and sisters she is closer to a Medium temperament than a Med/Soft. She was the first puppy to do everything, from standing up to climbing out of the whelping box and x-pen. She will be living in Glen Allen, VA with her new family. Her new playmate will be a white German Shepherd named Nanuk. I wonder if she is going to think he is her daddy Nico?

Georgy Girl aka Kiora was 10 weeks old and 26 lbs 4 oz. when she left here. I was really fortunate to be able to have her all to myself for 11 days after the other puppies had left. It was so nice to have a puppy one on one again. I got to really bond with her and of course spoil her rotten. However, I have to say she left here being crate trained, house broken and had learned to sit and down. She is definitly going to be just like her daddy Nico, a real sweetheart and charmer. Luck for me Kiora will only be living about 30 minutes away on five acres in Cross Junction, Virginia. She'll be living with a nice couple in their 50's who have already started calling her their fur baby. She will also have three cats to chase around the house. Her new family has promised to send pictures and bring her by to visit me, so keep watching as new pictures of her are posted.
