Crate Training the Candies

We put a crate into the pen two days ago and the Candies are spending time in there. This morning all seven were in at one time. We threw a blanket over the top of the crate so it's a bit like a cave in there.

If they have a safe place to hide out they use it. If you need to lock them in for a little while, so long as the door is usually open they will like having a place to go.

All of Our Puppies are Taken

 We thank everyone expressing an interest in taking one of our Basset babies into their family. But all of our puppies now have future furever homes. Barring something unforseen, we have closed the Wait List and won't be notifying Wait List people from this day forward.

We usually have two litters each year, though this is a natural process and nature has a way of throwing us curve-balls occasionally. Our next scheduled pairing is Lemonhead Lucy and Rocky Rhodes and expected to be a near to Christmas delivery date. It is possible that we might wait until Spring of next year for this pairing to allow Lucy more time between litters if the Vet. thinks it a goood idea.  Please let us know if you wish to be put onto our next Wait List so that we can notify you when things begin to take shape. 

Aunty Pixie

Pixie has taken up the job of Aunty for the International Candies. She keeps an eye on them whenever they go outside. There's an Aunty for every litter.  Since the babies can range far and wide and harrass Lilly every chance they get, Pixie has been in there.

I uploaded this video to YouTube and had to delete the music. The App left something behind so I put this one up directly to this BLOG.
