Just a couple of points here...

I think I forgot to tell you that since the "Golden Girls" were so hard to tell apart, I put kids pony tail fasteners onto their collars (great tug toys for the other pups! ha ha) so that you can identify them. Just so you know - Dharma is wearing purple on hers, Sushi (pronounced Suzie) has green ones and Ziggy has the orange ones... That should help all of you to figure out who is whom~

You likely noticed that in the videos the pups are still scratching at their collars - takes them a while, but most of them are used to them now...

Time to add leashes and let them get used to having a restraint on their movements... That will be hard for me to photograph, and they do hate being restrained like that, but hopefully, by the time they go to their new homes they will not tug at them, when you need to let them out of the car for a piddle~

I totally lost track of the days and missed the 8 week photos... but, I'll try to take them tomorrow, when some friends stop over and I will also identify which pups are spoken for already and which ones are still available.

I am still running a few days behind in the videos and pictures, but life just keeps getting busier. You will also notice that the pups will not be groomed now until they are picked up, so that I can show you how to trim the hair on their feet and around tehir eyes, plus trim nails

I DO hope that most of you, who are watching these pups grow, are enjoying this time along with me... I am loving the addition of the videos - just wish they uploaded faster~

I want to thank you ALL for the positive and encouraging comments I have received. This has been an amazingly enjoyable portion of my life. If you want a puppy from ME - please contact me soonest, as they are almost all sold now and this is definately the last time I will be breeding. It just takes too large a toll on my mental and physical health. If you are looking for a puppy in the future, please feel free to contact me and I will put you in touch with other breeders.

I could not have done all of this without the support of my friends and family and I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you who have helped me along my endeavour~

Cleaning time...

I have a fancy floor "sweeper" that I use to drag all of the toys out of the pen with. The pups play around with the toys, rawhides and blankets while I clean out the pen. By the time I have finished, they are often crashed out on a pile of blankets...

Then I carry them all back into the pen and they have a comfy nap. I get enough quiet time to come put up a few pictures, throw some laundry on, stick toys in the sink to clean them, and scrub out the other side of their play area...

Of course, first I have to sneak a few pictures of their adorable little faces! Dharma, Nina and Kaylie here

Oops! Kaylie was not quite asleep... ;-) That's Gemma in the background...

Kaylie came over to see me and they all shuffled spots - Back to front - Nina, Dharma and Gemma - I adore her penetrating eyes... like she sees into my soul~

Um... what's he doing?? lol

This does look pretty funny! I head a noise behind my couch and when I peeked back there... this is what I saw~ Tobi and Nina both trying to get into my bin...

I keep two bins behind my couch, specifically to keep the couch from ramming into the wall and have found this is a great place to keep the dogs rawhide chew bones. Well, the pups discovered this quickly and Tobi decided that the bin holds it nice and still for him, while he chews... as long as Nina leaves him alone that is... lol

"Grandma" Brandy going in to check on Teddy. He is fine - just pooped out from playing !

Brandy is so patient - lets the pups pull and tug at her hair for hours...

Both dogs spend lots of time keeping an eye on those pups for me... I can use all the help I can get some days~ Hard to get the chores done (maybe cuz they are too darn cute to not play with... lol)

Eeyikes!

Welcome to my Romper Room! The activity levels are HIGH when they come in from the cold... The numbers make it seem worse... (the big dogs come in frisky too!)

You know these "baby" toys I put in the pen... well, they are there to challenge their minds and since I know Lhasas love to climb, it was a natural assumption that they would climb onto this piano and make some music for me...

What I had not counted on, was them enjoying this and purposely striking the keys, to play songs for me! ha ha... Cute!

Course, everyone likes to get into the act!

and there is always lots of other activity going on as well~

Momma Joins Wrestlemania

Amber gets in the act... she is so kind and gentle with her pups~

and she knows where to go, to get out of their reach...

Can't get over what a great Mother she is to her babies...

Teddy was watching from his grooming perch~ (AKA my lap)

Finally starting to slow down - feels like forever, but it really only lasts 10-15 mins - exhausts me just watching! lol Looks like it exhausted Dharma too!

Wrestlemania in Puppyville~

Gives me time to clean out the sleeping area - Teddy needed
time in his quiet corner!

Where they get all their energy is beyond me...

Ha ha... They found Amber's hiding spot!

Yeehaw!!

Being typical Lhasa, they are lovin the snow~

I'm still feeling like a doorman here...

At least they have figured out quite well that "outside " is where to "go"... Now, if I could just train them how to pick up too~ ;-)

Yup - they can do just fine on their own -

Hmmm... they come in like little holy terrors though - Have rearranged again since then - you'll see the changes in the photos soon...
