Things are Hoppin’ Around Here

Posted on by Kristy

Boy, have we ever been busy with all the puppies!  Pearlie Girl had her white/cream Shichon puppies last evening and night, and she is the final pregnant mom in the nursery that was waiting to have her puppies.  Everything went smoothly and the puppies are fat, warm, and cozy this morning!  I’ll open a litter page for her on the Available Puppies page soon!

The nursery is all a buzz with activity and I’m proud of each litter and the progress they are making with their potty training.  The Lilly and Princess puppies are in the Advanced stages of Litterbox training, with access to the entire 4×4 playpen.  They hit the litterbox most of the time and we’re just continuing to provide a small space to help their aim be as accurate as possible.  The Harmony and Rosie litters are in the intermediate stage of litterbox training.  They have graduated to a larger bed and have been given some floor space, so far with great success.  And Lucy’s litter has just barely begun their litterbox training.  I introduced the litterbox a few days ago, but haven’t seen either of the puppies toddle out onto it just yet.  In time, they will.  The rest of the puppies are too young, but their turn will come soon enough.

We’re busy preparing crates, setting vet appointments for Health Certificates, and lining up all the shipping and deliveries that are coming up in the next couple of weeks.  There is going to be quite a handful of families that will have a new ball of fur for the holidays! 

I’ve been out to the nursery already this morning, cleaned up everything, built the fire in the wood stove, and will go back out shortly to get Rosie’s Bichon Frise puppies.  Today they are 6 weeks old, and it’s time for their 2nd Mini Groom, Photos, and an Action Video!  Stay tuned for updated pictures on their litter page in the Available Puppies link.  Jean-Luc has a forever home, but Pierre and Sebastian are still waiting for their special families!  Maybe it will be YOU!!

Sending puppy kisses your way!  Kristy

New URL (web address) for this Website/Blog

Posted on by Kristy

Friends, first I want you all to know that I appreciate the fact that you have subscribed to this blog and enjoy the updates! It warms my heart to see, each time I post, the number of people that are receiving my post in their email.

I want to let you all know about some upcoming changes.

First, and most importantly, we have a new address for the blog. If we are not already on your favorites list (then you need to add us), when you type in the blog address, you will need to type in:

http://www.silverpawcavachons.com

This is the new address for this blog/website.

We will also be changing the title of the website to Silver Paw Cavachons. Our first love and passion is the Cavachon Puppy, but we do still love all of our other breeds, and will continue to have litters of other breeds until we retire our mamas. We are going to focus primarily on the Cavachon puppies in the coming years and so thought it was fitting to go ahead and change our name.

We also have a new email address to go along with this change. If you use the Contact Us page, the link is already there, but we’ll go ahead and list it here as well. Our new email address is:

silverpawcavachons@gmail.com

One last thing, we hope to have a true home page on the blog soon, making it feel a little more like an actual website, but we will keep the blog under a new heading called “Silver Paw Tails” where you will find all the fun daily pictures, videos, and candid shots of all of our puppies.

This will all happen in baby steps, so no worries! But we wanted you to know now about the new web address and new email address.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the new Available Puppies litter pages. We’ve enjoyed the challenge of photographing the puppies to showcase them on those pages.

Have a Tail Waggin’ Day!! Kristy
