Chaz Puppies of 2015

Hazel is so cute. Look at the leg freckles!

I should have gotten pictures from the non-show side. She has a big marking on her hip that looks like a crescent moon (hence her litter name Crescent), and the white collar on her neck is really heavily ticked and might end up roaning. She definitely has some fun markings!

Oh, she's lovely. Can Welshies be shown with tails now?

Yep! The standard only says "typically docked" or something, and I see maybe 1/3 of dogs in the ring with tails now. This is the first time this breeder has kept tails in 40 years so it's pretty mainstream now. I'm excited! I love tails.

That's cool. At my last job I had two Weshies, one docked and on e natural, and I always admired the tail on the natural one. It was so flowing and pretty. Too bad he was one of the worst humpers in daycare.

My god she is cute

Spaniels just are some of the most adorable puppies ever!

She sounds like she will be a wonderful girl.

Hazel is so cute! I'm looking forward to watching her grow.

Adorable!

Oh my gosh! I love Hazel : ) Welshie puppies might be the cutest puppies ever...

It's hard to beat a spaniel puppy. Watson looked like an old man as a puppy. Hah

Spaniels with tails! Oh be still my heart...

Pretty pup!

Seriously, that is the cutest thing ever.

Doesn't look like DH is going to be getting a pup from the other litter, at least at this point.

I've been told I can get pick male out of this litter...I'll only post the boys that are possibles (one at 4.5 weeks was already so dominant and such a jerk it won't be happening for me, and the other is very small and very sweet/cuddly).

DH likes the blue male the best. I like this girl the best and I kind of hope the breeder keeps her (she's taking pick female) because I was sooo right about the last litter top pick (female). But, they are only 4.5 weeks old so I'll be more excited when I can watch them interact at 6.5 weeks and then watch them get tested for IPO at 7.5 weeks.

Truth. Jake spent a LOT of time looking for that puppy. Met a lot of dogs, had a lot of help from knowledgeable people, and was very picky about what he wanted. And it is really paying off.

You know, it's funny, but your comment in the other thread about dogs with a lot of bone being better for confo but not agility was actually really relevant. My pup was structurally pretty similar to her sister, but her sister had way better bone and was stockier. The breeder admitted that she would have picked the pup with better bone, but that the pup I picked had the much better temperament for sports. The other girl completely ignored us during temperament testing and was too independent.

Unfortunately the puppy with my favorite temperament also had structural faults :-( Whoever gets her will be very lucky. She is just so handler oriented already. Though she probably would've hated living with Watson's rambunctiousness.

I just got the shi*t starter. Apparently she was the only one who tried to gnaw on the cabinets in the vet's office yesterday. Haha. I think I'll have my hands full.



And FG167, you guys and your adorable GSD puppies! Stahp! You guys are also very brave. I'm panicked about getting one puppy with my one pretty laid back adult dog. I can't imagine that many IPO dogs in one place.

So many puppies. <3 Hazel is so cute!


I wasn't going to say anything for a couple more weeks, but I'm not good at that. Although I haven't said anything to a single other person so look how cool you guys are.

Ughhh I am getting puppy fever so bad. So excited about everyone's new additions! Can't wait to watch them grow up

What breed Southpaw??

ACD. I feel like I'm going out of my comfort zone a little bit (I don't even know what my comfort zone is really??) but I just keep coming back to them.
That specific puppy pictured is not necessarily mine, I'm getting a male of which he is 1 out of 3, so 33.3333% chance he's mine.

Ohh, I always forget they are born white, so that was throwing me off! So exciting

Is that a cattle dog puppy??? That is so exciting!! You must post more pictures! Are you getting a male and a female and how old are they?

Lol sorry for all the excitement, but this is so awesome!

ETA: lol I just read your previous post. I just kind of lost it a little when I saw how adorable he is. Are they all blue?

Oh hey I know exactly how it is when you're just like AH A CUTE THING and tune out everything else. :rofl1:
They're all blue, yep. 2 weeks old as of yesterday, get to visit when they're 4 weeks. Double mask boy (pictured) is my favorite just based on looks right now lol, but there's also a half mask and a plain-faced boy... so one of everything

It still feels a little surreal because I wasn't really planning on doing this right now, and I have a lot of other stuff occupying my brain. Which I guess is nice, I'm not really counting down the weeks (yet). Every once in a while I freak out because I haven't done the puppy thing since Juno, and while she turned out great... I was really just winging it with her. I don't know if it's a good or bad thing that I "know better" these days... I'm afraid I might try too hard or something
