I too agree with Neil. It would be lovely to have updates with photos as well of the puppies as they grow up.
I also have followed this thread from the start and am so pleased that the pups are all going to good homes. Well done to everyone involved.

Thought you might like to see the latest photos of Little Bear (still to find a new home for him). He is so lovely, we only wish we could keep him as well but I think 2 big dogs will be a bit much for Rusty! He is now into exploring and ended up with his head in the log pile yesterday, hence the 'sooty head'! Today he has been exploring the veggie patch (not good a white puppy and lots of mud, especially after all the rain we have had these last couple of days).

Default A bit early but............

My sister was over recently and knows Ralf, and she is a complete head case when it comes to dogs.........She was kind enough to buy Ralf an early Christmas present .........will I think by the time the 25th comes he may well have out grown it......and maybe the house too..........he weighs in at a shade under 5 kilos, no fat, just all dog.

Default That's It!

Well we wanted to let you all know as soon as possible as we thought you would all like to know the good news ...... Little Bear has gone to a new home tonight so that's it we are officially puppy less (well apart from Jesse of course)!!!

So we have done it. Thanks so much to everyone who has helped/ suggested/ and fostered and especially to Karen and Ant for finding and looking after the 6 little beauties for the first weeks of their lives.They are all so health and growing by the minute.

So now Jesse is curled up on the sofa looking very sorry for herself. Think she is wondering where everyone else has gone!

We are lucky as everyone wants to keep in touch which will be great to watch their progress and hopefully we will all keep on posting photo's as they grow.

Attaching some of the latest photos taken today - it is very quiet in the house at the moment - will miss them all as they are all so sweet and loved cuddles (sob sob).

Will keep you informed (and maybe get a bit more sleep now!!!!)

Thanks again
Sarah and Mark and Jesse

Fantastic - well done!

Now - how about starting a Group, with a group album, so that everyone who has one of these ultra famous (!) pups can upload piccies as they grow up? Hopefully those doglets who have been adopted by non forum members will keep in touch with either yourselves or Sully, and will send you the odd snap of the developing huge dog which you could then put into the group album.

Default The end of the first chapter

Well we couldn't have wished for a happier ending to this chapter.
What started as panic, desperation and tears as ended in relief, happiness and tears. With everyones help and support (especially Sarah & Mark) we achieved what we set out to achieve - all the pups alive n well and all loving homes to call their own (and there still only 7 weeks old).
A big thank you to all the families for taking on such a huge responsiblity, we're sure you will have years of fun and love off these guys - they are all so loving and gorgeous (and huge). It's the best christmas present ever knowing they are all settled with their new families.
It's a great idea to keep posting photos of their progress, I'm sure everyone would be interested to see how they turn out - we've got some good baby ones.
Thanks again to all concerned and everyone else for their interest and support.

Let me just add to this.
If the owners are only half as pleased as us, they must be over the moon.......Ralf is, loving, nuts, a pee and poop machine, part cat ( we have four, so it has rubbed off), eating machine, anyone that has one of his Bros or Sissys should be happy bunnies.......

Ralf "did his say bunnies, wheres the bunnies , where the bunnies"
