Puppy Portraits – The Final Week!
15/12/2011 at 17:25 5 comments
Where has the time gone?? This is the last week for the Belatarr babies before most head to their new homes and start their lives away from the pack. Sadly the appalling weather (incredibly low-light levels, freezing temps, endless hail sleet & rain) meant that the final week head-shots were very tricky to get, and not very high quality and very washed-out when we did get them, with pups (and us) shivering and looking rather glum in the driving sleet…but at least we have something to represent them as they were at 7 weeks old and before they all change once again into mature young dogs.
So, dozens of refuse bags full of soiled bedding, weeks of missed sleep, much cuddling and hundreds of chicken wings later, these are Phoenix and Mingus’ dozen, all now with their Kennel Names (Jazz themed, to follow on from Mingus) just before they leave us:
THE BOYS (minus one)
Belatarr Thelonius Monk
(pic forthcoming…)
THE GIRLS

awwwww. A sad departure I am sure, but you all will have fun getting back to normal. Hope you found lovely homes for them all. Their coats really make them quite unique, I hope you will update us with pictures as you get some.
Are you all keeping one?

Hi Anna,
We have found some great homes and seeing the excitement and joy in their new parents faces has really made the whole process very worthwhile. Can’t wait to watch them all growing up now! We are keeping a boy – Django – lots of pics to follow!
