Franky goes to the Dentist

We had a rather scary and stressful day today. A few days ago we noticed that little miss Franky had snapped the top off one of her canines. We don’t know how she did it. Probably tugging with one of the bigger dogs or a symptom of her habit of running at things with her [...]

It was a big Saturday the Kelpies babies all piled into the car and headed off to Castle Hill for a dog show. It was the first show for the babies. Cahill and Franky were showing, while Izzy was having the weekend off to continue training. She will be having her first go in the [...]
A Long Weekend

This weekend was a crazy busy dog filled one. Given Monday was an extra day off there was no good reason not to fill Saturday and Sunday to the brim with stuff.

Stacking Puppies

The puppies reached five weeks old today, which is amazing. Boy does time fly. Anyway we decided it was time to take a few ‘serious’ photos of the little puppers all stacked up and looking showy. Unfortunately, late at night probably wasn’t the best time to give it a go as the puppies were quite [...]
Puppies Meet Chicken

The puppies had their first taste of real ‘hunting’ today with their first chicken wings. They have been eating bits of beef and chicken mince for a few days but this was their first go at something hard with bits in it. It was also raining outside, so they got the double whammy of new [...]
Fable meets the Puppies

Fable has been completely obsessed with the puppies since they started making noises and she noticed they were in the house. She has sat at the gate constantly watching them and spent quite a bit of time sticking her nose through and saying hi as the puppies got older and managed to come up and [...]
Puppies!

We decided to take the puppies out for a bit of a photo session since they are really starting to grow up and have a bit of personality as they start to do more. They are spending most of their time sleeping and growing, while they do a little bit of playing and exploring. The [...]
