Save the date!

Stryder's getting hitched! And we're getting a puppy!

As many of you know, we've been searching for quite a while for just the right female for our golden guy. We finally found her. She's beautiful, and Stryder is so excited (or at least we imagine he is). Her name is Penny and she lives with a great family in Kansas City.

She'll be ready to breed in August, so Stryder will spend a few days "getting acquainted" then. If all goes according to schedule, the puppies should arrive in October, meaning they'll be able to leave their mom in December. Christmas puppies!!! Is there anything better?

If you're interested in one of Stryder's pups, let me know asap. We've already got a list going. Our vet has even claimed one (which should tell you how incredible these dogs are).

This is Penny, with her most recent litter of puppies.

Here's Stryder with his brothers and sisters at 4 weeks old 
(December 02). He was a Christmas puppy too!

And just for fun, here's a photo my dad took of Stryder's parents, Mannley and Scout, the day that they "consummated" their relationship. I promise this is a real picture - isn't it amazing?

Oooo, I wish we were ready for a puppy because we'd love one. But we're planning to wait until we're done having babies.
I can't wait to see pictures of the puppies!
