It is hard to believe that it is almost time for the L9 litter to go to their new homes!! #4 will be picked up tomarrow with most of the others following over the next few days. They all got their pictures taken this after noon, right after they got weighed, wormed and their nails cut. Had their doctor check up yesterday, with everyone rated as happy and healthy. This has been perhaps the most loving litter I have had so far, every morning when they get up they just want to play with me and lick me and jump all over me. I am going to miss them, but can't wait for them to make other people's lives happy... here they are at nearly 8 weeks:

Puppy #1

Puppy #2

Puppy #3

Puppy #4

Puppy #5

Puppy #6

I was so proud today - one of our youngest pups from the last Vista Dei litter, entered the agility ring for the first time and another Star was born! Vista Dei Hector of Troy, handled by his owner Denise L, completed his first CPE run in Standard with a first place ribbon and qualifying score, clean run with a time of 29.52 seconds on a course with a standard time of 64 seconds! He also qualified and I believe got another first placement in a second run, but I do not have the times for that one and Denise also handled another of her shelties, Troy for 2 more Q runs and first place scores. Just for the record, Hector measured in at a wopping 11 1/2".....

Not to be outdone by his son, "DARBY" U-CH Sirius Stellar Performance CD,RN,OA,1/3OAJ,NAJ,NAP,NJP,1/3NF,CL3-R,CL2-H,CL2-F,CGC,OV earned 3 qualifying scores with 3 first place ribbons in the same CPE trial. Was a long day but definately worth it!
