Ms Yellow also was picked up by her family from Fort Frances, ON.  She had a great reunion with Lucy (Ms. Purple) who came along for the pick up.  Ms. Yellow is now Des (Short for Destiny) and will be a great addition to their family. She was a very ...

It's a little quieter around here these days - 4 from the Classic Rock Litter have gone to their new homes.  Ms. Braun went to Stanton, ND; Mr. Black flew to Victoria on Thursday and Mr. Yellow's owner flew to Winnipeg from Calgary to pick him  up and fly back that same day.  On Friday Ms. Orange was picked up in person by her owner from Montana and flew back home with her in cabin!
 That leaves 4 boys and Ms. Yellow from the D litter.  Beautiful puppies - Nugget has grown so much that you ca...
