Just more cute pictures!

Sweet first born!!

 Sam really loves our first born!!!
They're bonding!.

.

The Golden Retrievers are moving and climbing...

They are everywhere!

Oodles of growing Doodles!

The Doodles are also growing at an amazing rate!

Though they are smaller than the Golden's, so far they are gaining faster.

They are so cute!

There isn't room for them all to get in!

These Golden Retrievers are growing up fast!

The puppies seem to be visibly growing every day.

They are just 2 1/2 weeks old and are already between 3 and 4 lbs.

I'm not sure how Gracie keeps up with feeding them all.

They are becoming more and more mobile every day

and their eyes are now all open.

Socialization

We believe that socialization of the puppies starts on day #1.

Our puppies are used to being handled, vacuum cleaners, TV, kids running and playing all from the start.

Day #4 in the life of a puppy...

Eat, Sleep, Eat, Sleep, Eat, Sleep

That's it.
