Swift x Turk 2024 Litter

Ruth! Oh my word, I just can’t with this dog, she flies! Probably should let her go be a dock diver or agility competitor, looking forward to seeing her on trial fields too though. Amazing mover, in every dimension, I just can’t even fathom how sometimes, defies gravity or logic.
😱🤗❤️

No pics of Ren sadly, she’s not well, with her well as she hads to the Vet in the morning to try a discern why and how to get her feeling better.

The adventures continue with this dynamic duo as they approach 3 months old!! Leash training, crate training, first trips to places like Home Depot, extended walks, several guests, light beginnings of obedience training, and the sad end to nursing, it’s been a full few weeks for Ruth & Ren!! 😍😍

I can not even with these puppies. Light up my already bright life, I love them so much!!
Wild witnessing Swift shift her relationship dynamic with them too. They’ll be 8 weeks tomorrow and while she did let them nurse today it was very brief and with some grumbling. She’s fine still to cuddle with them and happy to play, but the milkbar is closing and with it that chapter of their lives together.

Ahh! I missed posting on Ruth & Ren’s 7 weeks old day! They are growing up so fast! They’re amazing, greatly increased their comfort zone territory, are learning all the time, chewing all the time (colligators!!), cuddling, curious, everything wonderful one might imagine. It’s incredible witnessing their relationship dynamic shift with Swift too, tender; she’s started the weaning process and also takes them on little adventures and includes them in play. They’re both happy, healthy, rolly polly cuddle loves, so much fun!! ❤️❤️ … oh and both are just shy of 10 lbs!! 😱🤗

Keep your Collie close. ❤️❤️. Jac in the background bringing over the ewes, his Granddaughters fast asleep on and under my feet, and this funny little figure that just appeared one day. I love, Love my collies!! 🤗🤩🥰

I continue to have space issues on my phone, but have managed to get a few photos of these cuddle puddles regardless. 6 weeks old tomorrow and just Wow!! 8lbs 4oz and 7lbs 15oz respectively, working on where to go potty (asking to go outside even!), both come galloping in response to hearing their names, both are so healthy, strong, rolly polly, curious, eating some big dog food, sinking their little needle teeth into anything and everything they can, and just such incredibly delightful beings. Too funny how in the blink of an eye they can be rambunctiously underfoot to unconscious asleep wherever they happened to land, or nurse from Swift on the fly as it were, sitting below her while she’s distracted looking at something out the sliding glass window, crafty puppies!! We’re all head over heels for them; so much joy all around!! 🤩😍🤗

What next level of bliss is this?! So wonderful!! Ruth & Ren are both no longer contained by their whelping box (unless we put the fill door in to make sure they are safely in while we’re away, Swift can still come and go as she likes). They are walking, attempting to run, wrestling, communicating with us, playing with other dogs (supervised), and plopping down to nap as close to us as they can get. What little wonders!! So. Much. Fun!! 😍😍

Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!! Ruth & Ren’s whelping box moved into the living room today, Swift was finding keeping track of her puppies amd her boys too distracting, and we kept bringing the pups into the living room anyway. Ruth has figured out how to get out of the whelping box now too, Ren’s not far behind! This even with the doorway extension (we have a second extension to make sure she stays put when we’re away) but too many things for puppies to get in trouble with in the boys’ room of requirement. Way fun! Swift seems more at ease too. So much fun!!
