"Puppies 21 months old"


Teddy, haven't weighed him for a long time, he is about 31 1/2 inches tall, maybe a bit more, and my guess is that he is about 125 lbs right now, very lean still.

Nanuk, still going strong at over 8 years old, still leading his pack of youngsters,

Ayla turned 4 last month, at just over 80 lbs she is the smallest of the guardians


Ayla and Teddy

Teddy was enjoying some attention from me, when all of a sudden the rest of the gang started running, in this picture he just got up and going, I actually had hoped that the picture still showed him sitting, but it didn't, Nanuk is already ahead running full speed. All the commotion was about a raven flying too low and too close to the fenceline.


Teddy is a agile, but fairly heavy boned built. He is plenty big for my taste at this point, but he still has plenty of growing to do.

Cici is very lean, but very muscular, she is extremely agile, sure footed and fast, she is also very focused on her guardian duties. She is also very smart and for the longest time she thought she could outsmart me when it comes to cooperating with what I ask of her. However she found out that I was smarter, and that every time she thought she got away with something, she found herself not where she really wanted to be. So now, she is using her smartness to keep a really close eye on what I do and if I ask anything of her, she will smartly do it to secure her reward before somebody else gets a chance at it. My husband gets a bit tired of me saying "she is something else", but it's the truth. She is my little bean.

Cici spotted one of the neighbor's bunnies out in the street.


Teddy


Teddy, he has the most beautiful plush coat of all the pups.

Teddy, ribs are just barely visible, his plush coat makes him look great.

Prince, it's been exactly a year since he has been back with me, how the time flies, he is such a lovely boy

Prince has loved this spot every since he was a little pup, I remember the day before he left for his new home as a puppy, he wandered out in the dark to this spot and sat there all by himself in the dark, don't know what it is about this spot, but he thinks it's the best spot to be.
