We have been fighting our tangle of hounds' animal urges for about a week, though it seemed longer somehow. Lilly went into season almost immediately following the delivery of the last puppy from the Snack Cakes Litter to her family and our boys have been impossible ever since then.
Figuring out what was happening right away is one of the things we really work at. There's a schedule and a plan in place to make things seemingly easier. So as soon as we spotted Lilly "spotting" we sequestered our boys to keep nature from taking its course. We have three spaces for dogs to be, other than running free around the Farm.
We have the big Dog House, this features a ten by three foot heated bed, smart squirrel T.V., and its own small yard. There's the House and Farm, the dog's preferred place. And there is a large enclosure tied to the west end of the house which is fenced and has a small heated dog house. All of the spaces are heated and comfortable, but we are still working toward building more permanent solutions because things are not as tightly controlled as they have always seemed.
Rocky is a strong boy. He was able to push through the double locked gate where he found Lilly, who wasn't opposed to anything Rocky wanted to do. The bottom line is that we will be having puppies in February. Nobody is happy about his because of the timing and closness of two litters. But one doesn't look gift horses in their mouths or question God's planning. We always look forward to puppies no matter what or when. But we have our preferences. . .
More news as we find it.
There is good early information on our Reservations Page (https://rocketdogbassets.blogspot.com/p/reservations-for-future-litters.html), but you can call Ann for any questions.
The Wait List for this litter is open. Just send me a message using the email widget on the left side of this page (phones won't see the widget so use CreeksideFarmOregon@gmail.com to contact us). We will keep you informed.

I’m interested in breeding quality female. Prefer smallest. Traditional tri, honey lemon or red/white female.
