An inspector calls

 Yesterday our licensing inspector called unannounced for a spot check on what we do. He was greeted at the door by Ori and Willow who were quite happy to have someone new to play with. Sadly for the dogs he was here.to work not play.

He had a look round and met the dogs, checked our numbers to make sure that we don't have more dogs here than we are allowed. He met the puppies and had a look through our paperwork. 

After a lovely chat about the people who still carry on breeding pups with no license despite the new laws that are in place, he declared us just fine to carry on. Next inspection due next year when our license is up for renewal.

The job of the licensing officers is necessary and is useful for us as breeders too. He keeps us up to date on things we may have missed and we help him appreciate the finer aspects of breeding dogs.

Please, if you are seeking to bring a four legged friend into your home, ask to see a current license, get to know your breeder before meeting any fluffy bundles of joy, and do your research. 

The photo is of Willow meeting one of the Labrador puppies. She's a lovely girl and was quite taken with the little bundle of fluff.

Labrador puppies

 This beautiful photo of Ori and her babies was taken today. I love the colours and some of the coats feel just like fresh new carpet.

Hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

Labrador puppies!

 Beautiful labrador puppies and their mum! She is so comical as wherever she lays down she has to have her head propped up on something. In a big room she will wedge herself against the wall. 

And don't be concerned with the dimensions of her space. She chose this area herself, presumably as it feels safe and closed in with her puppies. She can keep them all snuggled up together and they can't wander far. She has plenty of other space to be in as well. We always make arrangements for each mother as an individual because they are not all the same, although her grandmother and mother also preferred to tuck in small.

Talking of her mother, here is Echo, grandma to these babies. She is loving having so many pups to watch over without the actual mum work 😄

Echo is a lovely dog. She enjoys her home comforts and likes to watch tv whilst laying in front of the log burner.
