Empty nest

Things have been so busy this past week. All of the puppies have gone to new homes and now that I have time to think, I am suffering a bit of puppy withdrawal!

The first puppy to leave was Winter. Now Smiln Dal's Run To Me, "Raeah". She lives in Aliso Viejo, CA with Kelley and David.

Next was Spring, now Smiln Dal's Jive Talkin', who went to live with Dawn and Dave in Prunedale, CA. She already has a big sister, "Shadow".

 Then Yvonne and Tina came to get Summer, now Smiln Dal's Love Me Inside And Out, "Sirius". He will be living in Madera, CA.

Finally, it was time to put Autumn on the plane in Sacramento and send her to Marie in Colorado Springs, CO. Autumn is now Smiln Dal's Wildflower, aka "Stella".

I can't say enough about the wonderful people who have taken these puppies into their homes. It's been a great experience having the 4 pups and finding the right homes for them. It isn't easy, it's a lot of work but all worth it to know that a puppy born in your house has a loving home for life!

I look forward to seeing them as they grow up. Spring and Summer (Sirius) may turn out to be show dogs. We'll see how they look in a few months but we are confident that all the pups will make their mom and dad proud no matter what!
