BEE x GRIZZLY Pups - Born 12/10/04
Week
Four
Each week, we add another set of mug shots & candids -
stay tuned and watch them grow!

 

Sadly, this is the very last photo of Dina, taken a few hours before she was put to sleep on Wednesday for a vascular ring anomaly, a defect which caused her esophagus to constrict and not let solid food pass to her stomach. The onset was acute, the diagnosis made within hours - she never suffered.

The hard part of breeding is wanting all pups to be perfect; the reality is that not all of them are, and sometimes, very hard decisions must be made. It's nice to share the good times through the photos - but important to also share the heartaches that come with living with and making decisions for living beings whose care lies solely in your hands.

Vaya con dios, Dina...

Belly up to the bar!

At this point, there's a lot more air space than ground space, so Bee often feeds the pups in this way. Teaches them good balance!

Bee & Rain & Pups

Bee allows Rain a lot of freedom with the pups - nice to see two bitches being anything but bitchy.

Bite Me!

Self explanatory...

Hands are chew toys

Well, at this age, everything is a chew toy. Everything...

Cricket 4 weeks

Looking slightly annoyed at being photographed, she's still a beautiful puppy. Mellow and sweet, she's still "talking" a great deal. About everything!

Cubby 4 weeks

VERY people oriented and funny, this is a sweetheart of a puppy. Think really funny but slightly wicked Boy Scout, and you've got him.

Gregor 4 weeks

This is one funny pup, with plenty of energy & ideas. He's going to keep someone very amused while also making sure they feel well loved. Sweet!

Marcie 4 weeks

This is one gorgeous girl. And she's very funny to boot. Smart, sassy and pretty - out to be illegal.

Monk 4 weeks

Monk is a handsome hunk. The Chunky Monkey as we call him, he's just about handsome as GSD puppy boys can be. Something special, this boy is...

Wavy 4 weeks

Wavy Gravy Man is BIG on using his paws to - well - WAVE them around, and bat you in the head or just annoy his littermates. Should be a real hoot when he weighs 90 pounds.

What you looking at?

Something a bit New Yorker-ish about the attitude here. But it's really just an odd camera angle. Dese guys ain't from da Bronx.

Play time!

What amuses me about this photo is the pup in the background who having his own party while his two littermates wrestle.

Party time

Looks they're lining up to take cracks at Monk.

Best bed in the house

Curled up on Mom's butt - ah, who doesn't have happy memories of that?

Very uptight

We're considering the assistance of a professional to help these pups get over being so uptight. The Valium on their puppy food seems to be working. (Just kidding!)

Greco-Roman Wrestling

Has nothing on puppy style, which includes being able to bite your opponent on the nose, ears or leg - hard...

We love Auntie Heather

Mostly because she's really delicious. Or at least the pups think so. (We think she's just really neat - haven't chewed on her hands ourselves.)
