Yes an angel was watching over Liberty, she was released from a puppymill, and if they had known she was pregnant, she would still be there, to suffer more.  And her babies, what fate would they have had?  Would the little girl stay in a cage, to reproduce over and over.  Perhaps the boys would have had an easier chance of being sold, or they too, might have stayed and lived a life of hell.


Liberty is approximately 4 years old, she is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Chihuahua. She will be about 8 lbs when she is finished nursing. Strong chances are the pups Father was a Papillon.

The babies were born April 3 and April 4th/08 (she started at 10 pm, and last baby born was app. 2 am)

April 7 (4 days old)

Kairu "Ru" (male)

Loretta "Retta" (female)

Nikko (male)

These babies will be available for adoption and ready to be rehomed around June 13/08.  I will update weekly pictures, so you can see them grow:-)

April 13/08:

Libbey is an incredible Mom, the puppies are thriving.  Libbey is a shy girl, but she is learning to trust and love humans.  When she is away briefly from her babies, she follows me everywhere, now completely housetrained, has learned the doggie door.  She is a very sweet and endearing girl.  New pictures of puppies, next week...they look like fat lil sausages.  Some tan coloring is starting to show up.  They are happy and chubby.  They only have to quietly squeak, and Mamma is there for them.

April 14/08:

Loretta's eyes have opened..she is looking at the world through a haze right now.  Her brothers, I am sure will open their eyes any day now.

April 15/08
Nikko has opened his eyes

April 16/08
Ru has opened his eyes.  I thought Ru would be the first, cause he always got lost, everyone could find Mamma, and he would still be crawling around:-)

April 17/08 (2 weeks old)

Isn't Mamma gorgeous:-)

Retta

Nikko

These darling babies continue to thrive, the boys weigh 1.5 lbs and lil Retta is now 1 lb.  When they were just over 2 weeks, they already were initiating play with each other, above normal activity for this age.  They grow cuter and more fun as each day passes.  So cute to watch them mouth and bat at each other, and fall over:-)

May 2/08 (4 weeks old)

Ru

Retta

Nikko

The boys are now 1 3/4 lbs and Retta is 1 1/4 lb..continuing to thrive, play and be happy.
The fun will begin, as next week it will be time to introduce them to food, starting with puppy milk and adding doggie food...oh boy "what a mess that will be"

I have gotten several requests for Liberty, and it is something I never said, so I apologize.  My preference for Libbey is to be rehomed (when she is ready) with another dog.  She has learned so much by understanding trust by watching "well adjusted and loved dogs" it would be in her best interest.

May 9/08 (5 weeks old)

Ru

Retta

Nikko

By gosh, cuter as each day goes by.  The weaning process has started, Retta and Nikko have easily lapped up the puppy formula...hmmm Ru still thinks dinner is on Mom.  Heck no rush he will figure it out and Mom appears in no rush.  You would think she would start wanting a break, but she is just such a good Mom.  The boys are now 2 lbs, and Retta is 1.5 lbs.

Not only watching the puppies grow and become lil doggies, with their own personalities, the real joy is watching Libbey become a happy doggie.  She adores toys, so much that the puppy room is filled with them, she gathers, collects and has become a toy hoarder
