Introductions Please!

It's Day Three and we have lots to share! As of today 4 have new homes so if you are interested please contact us! This is such a pretty little litter: half are liver and white, half are black and white. At least 2 are tri-colors and at least 2 are going to be full of ticking! 

Liver and white top, black and white with ticking bottom
Both may be tri-colored
Therefore Ann has been calling it her Crayon litter. Therefore we dove into the box of crayons to give them temporary names until they find their new families. So today we have two things to share: we'd like to introduce you to them individually and we have some very sweet early morning dreaming puppy videos to share.

First the videos! Enjoy!

Then the Photo Shoot:
Bella has been a very good mom to her newborns, and even though she is our Addie's daughter, there are some differences. Both dogs hated being away from their pups at this stage for any longer than a few minutes. Both refused to eat or drink unless we hand fed them in the whelping box. However Bella is more tentative with her pups in that for the first two days she really would get nervous if we picked them up very long. Likewise she counts her pups after she's been away or when we return them to her after weighing them!

Bella - such a good momma
Bella and her pups
Therefore we waited a few days until she was comfortable before taking their newborn portraits. You can see us setting up the shoots below!
Lights!
Camera!
Action!

And drum roll please...here are Bella's babies in order of appearance:

_________________________________________________________________
Sienna
Sienna was the first born, a sweet little girl who is sure to be a mover and shaker!
She has a lovely liver saddle much like her Grandma Addie and some of her Aunts and Uncles

Orchid
Orchid maybe a little tri-color liver and white and her sweet markings remind us both of her Uncle Ollie who we had named Georgie and her mom Bella!

Goldenrod (Goldie)
Goldie is going to be a beautiful girl!

She has a wonderful wide white band throughout her  head.
In some ways because of all her white she reminds us of her famous Grandpa Eero yet her thumb print markings remind us of her mom Bella.

Cadet Blue (KD)
KD is the first Black and White of the bunch. 
She has a beautiful waterfall of white down her back which will fill in with delicate flakes of blue black called "ticking".
 _____________________________________________________________
Indigo (Indy)
Indy is our only boy. Wow, what fun he will have growing up with all those sisters!
He should be a stunner with the black, white, and ticking!
And he is a tri-color to boot with the white face stripe to the side like Grandma Addie!

Violet
We don't believe she will be a shrinking violet - she already knows how to get what she wants - Mom!
We think she will look a lot like her handsome Dad Oliver! 
Such a black beauty!
