Puppy Updates

Dune went for a trip to the Island and got to hang out with her Little niece.  

She was great! 

 Ares came for a visit and Clover was stoked!!!!  

He is very cute, super rambunctious, and totally darling.

Look at that little face!

 Nugget is home!!! Having a little spoon session with mom Clover!

Sunni came by on Saturday, it was hard to get them to all sit still for a moment!

Clover loves Sunni, and Nugget likes her until she has a treat, then they are mortal enemies!

Dinner Ideas

Lincoln (Moose) is a spoilt boy...
Just got this note from Leah and thought I would pass it along..........

We wanted to let you know we have been making our own dog food! After doing a lot of research, we have settled on this recipe. It makes about 24 cups of food, which we portion and store in the freezer:

• 4 lbs ground turkey
• 4 lbs ground beef
• 1 lb or so of chicken livers
• 1 lb or so of chicken hearts
• 6 hard boiled eggs
• 2 zucchinis, juiced
• 2 yams, juiced

Directions:

1. Blitz the eggs in a food processor (with shells)
2. Blitz livers and heart in food processor
3. Juice the zucchinis and yams, mix pulp and juice together
4. Add everything to a very large stand mixer, or bowl and mix together thoroughly
5. Portion in 1-2 cup servings and freeze.
6. Thaw 1-2 at a time, and add digestive enzyme powder and salmon oil before serving.

We have been feeding Lincoln:

Chicken necks for breakfast

The homemade food for lunch

The homemade food plus green tripe for dinner.

On occasion he also has: bananas, turkey neck, raw buffalo bones, apples, yogurt, canned pumpkin.

yummmmmm...sound good....kinda!

Clover and I are in Puppy Withdrawl

Jersey has gone home, Nugget is in White Rock with a broken nail...its so quiet around here, Clover and I are in Puppy Withdrawl.

Clover is so sad she even resorted to major couch snuggling with me, as she crawled onto my lap and went to sleep...Clover NEVER snuggles like that!  Don't get me wrong, I'll take her snuggles anytime!  So while she laid on my lap, I of course didn't dare move incase I would wake her and she would take off...So instead, I texted the puppy owners asking for pictures to help get Clover and I thru the lonely days!

Got this one of Lincoln a couple days ago...He just looks like a little trouble maker!

Dune has had her shots and now gets to go to the park, where she is behaving excellently!!  But holy shit, when did she get so big?

 Oh the good times, when Jersey was here, hanging with mom on the trampoline!

 Rufus came for a visit on Monday, we ran him rugged and sent him home nice and tired!!

Dune stopped by again this weekend and had a good play with Clover and Frisco

Remember Pennylane from Litter #1?  I got these new pics, and had to share....she is adorable!

Nash Says Thanks!

Got this email last night and wanted to share it, cause I know you all will be as stoked as I am that we were able to help!

Hi Atlin,

Thank you for the generous donation! As a volunteer-run rescue we rely on donations from the community to take dogs out of the shelter system, provide them with vet care and training, and support them through their foster period. 

Your donation will make a difference in the life of a dog like Nash. He had a bad case of kennel cough coming out of the shelter and has needed a little extra TLC on top of his neuter, vaccinations and other typical costs associated with rescue. He's recovering nicely and loves to play with his foster sister while awaiting his forever home.

Nash is a staffy bull cross so I thought you might enjoy his smiling face! :)

Thank you again!

April

I do enjoy his smiling face!!!  And I am smiling too, knowing that TuffLove Kennels was able to help.

If you know anyone looking to adopt, please pass on the HugABull info...maybe we could help get Nash into a good home!

Dog Mania Around Here

Generations of Staffys.  

Babysitting Jersey, and Sunni came by for a visit.

Had to get a family photo

Jersey is a good looking girl

 

 Sunni looks just like Clover, just a little bit shorter, but filling out and looking great

Rufus came for a visit and played with Jersey

 Nugget came home for a visit too.  She is on bed rest after breaking her toe nail, she has been quarantined in White Rock!

 How the hell did we manage to get this photo?  Treats, lots of treats!

 Taking a break from the dojo for a 'homemade chicken liver brownie'!
