Una Turns 2...Weeks!



Una is already 2 weeks and thriving! She is now 1lb. 7.5oz. Her eyes and ears have started to open, you can see a little slits where her beautiful eyes are peeking through. She now recognizes our voices and is comfortable in my hands and arms.

Una is 1 Week!


Una is growing fast. She's already more than doubled her weight at over 14oz.Una has the cutest little bark, when she wants to get Mom’s attention. Already, starting to stand up on her legs, she gets around rather quickly in the whelping box.

Meet, Una!


A beautiful little Ruby girl, weighing 6.4oz was presented to us via c-section this past Thursday. The c-section went smoothly and Julie and Puppy are doing well. We have chosen Charivari Maiden Voyage as her Registered name and will call her, “Una.” Una came out kicking and was extremely excited to see Mom for her first feeding. You can even see her little milk mustache in the photo, taken just hours after she was born.

Mother To Be!


Julie looks confused about her new sleeping arrangements. Ken did a great job building Julie's new whelping box. We're expecting Julie to have her puppy any day now (Visit our Puppies page for more info on this litter). We're like expectant parents, pacing around the house awaiting the arrival. The whelping box is set up in our Master Bedroom as we maintain 24 hour "puppy watch" here. The X-ray's taken today, show just a single puppy, so we're hoping for a beautiful show prospect. We're prepared for anything at this point, natural or c-section is anyone's guess. Due to the high probability of a c-section, we have scheduled one for this Friday (if Julie doesn't have the puppy by then). Keep your fingers crossed and say your prayers for a smooth delivery and a beautiful healthy puppy... or two (a "magic" puppy).
