Last week it was time for the puppies to go to their new homes. All the homes were found through the breed club so we didn't have to do any advertising and the prospective owners were all known to the club secretary. We then invited the families to come and visit their puppy once they had turned 7 weeks and this gave us an opportunity to meet them and talk through care of the puppies and issues such as feeding a couple of weeks ahead of the puppies actually leaving. The children also found it easier once they had met the new owners and saw how loved the puppies were going to be.
We then had a major paperwork session writing contracts, advice sheets, feeding plans etc and organising all the papers from the vets and kennel club. It was a big project but luckily we have a couple of girls who are a whiz on the computer...
What we can't get over is how we went from this....
to this....
in the space of 9 short weeks!
Fortunately we are keeping this lovely boy as there is no way we could have said goodbye to all of them. All in all it has been an amazing experience and the guys have learnt so much and met lots of new people, all of whom share our love of this wonderful breed.
If you would like even more of a puppy fix Anna has also put more photos here.
