2nd September 2026
We are finally puppy free for the first time since 11th June! Our kitchen now looks huge with all of the puppy paraphernalia gone, whilst it is being cleaned and made ready for the next litter.
Last year we had two litters that were 11 hours apart and that worked really well. This litter that was 11 days apart was a lot more than double the work – but all are healthy and happy in their new homes.
Our waiting list for Tilly is about complete and we are already building one for Molly for next spring.
Daisy is finally in season – her first while Brooke is on her second (they are 11 hours apart in age. Just goes to show how different Labs can be.
Finally, we are now in the process of preparing to take eight dogs on holiday to Spain! The bearings on the dog trailer have been changed and we are about to make sure all rabies vaccines are up to date in the dogs we’re taking.
We need to find out how much dog food we’re allowed to take away with us, and plan accordingly. The journey will take around 30 hours or so – meaning we will need to feed them at least three times on the way and have enough until we can get similar and get them switched over.
And what to do about preventing mosquito bights on the dogs as they carry heart worm.
Watch this space!
Upcoming litters.
Maisie is due her litter of Chocolates on the 13th June and has been scanned for eight.
Rosie is due a litter of blacks on 23rd June and has been scanned for seven or eight.
Life will be busy for those ten weeks, but this is what’s best for the girls. We will be keeping them in separate rooms.Following these two
Tilly will be due a litter, hopefully early Autumn. We will see what happens!
