Riley is home. She and Hattie got along great, right out of the chute. More photos tomorrow.

Posted on May 7, 2019 by Steve Mays

One of these pups is Riley. In a couple of weeks she’ll be part of our little family.

Straitjacket

Posted on May 5, 2019 by Steve Mays

I found this clip languishing in my flickr account. Barb was doing some (legal) work at a psych facility that had closed and made off with a straitjacket. We share a sense of humor. I was never able to put the thing on but persuaded co-worker Christie to let us buckle her up. I hope and assume that there are more humane restraints today.

Riley litter: Five weeks

Posted on April 27, 2019 by Steve Mays

We don’t know which one is “Riley” yet because the breeder picks which puppy goes to which family. A first for us but probably makes more sense than trying to pick from sixteen equally adorable puppies. We got our first look (and touch) today at the “puppy party” the breeder threw for the new families.

Riley litter: Kennel time

Posted on April 24, 2019 by Steve Mays

Riley and her litter-mates are getting acquainted with the kennel. Won’t be long now.

Riley: First meal

Posted on April 22, 2019 by Steve Mays

Riley and her litter mates are making the transition from mom to food-in-a-bowl. Seem to be getting the hang of it. This coming Saturday we’ll get our first hands-on look at the pups.

Riley litter: 4 weeks

Posted on April 18, 2019 by Steve Mays

The pups are moving out of their “rat-like thing” stage and starting to look like cute Golden Retriever puppies. I believe the plan is for us to visit sometime after five weeks and bring Riley home at eight weeks. Eventually we’ll be able to post a photo and say this is Riley.
