We have a female with a short tail that is available at a discount since she doesn’t quite display the typical Golden Retriever aesthetic, but she is an absolute doll!

We also have a male reservation available! The puppy/family matching will take place next week, but here are a few pictures of some of the male pups for reference. They all are a little milk drunk and damp from nursing in the pictures, but still cute. Pups go home July 20th!

As we were waiting for Rye’s last pup, Mocha’s water broke around midnight last night. The back to back births took about 22 hours altogether. There were 16 pups born with 12 being boys and and only 4 being girls. We’ve got to wait a little bit to see how all the pups stabalize over the next week, but as of right now, we have seven male reservations available.

Rye went into labor this afternoon, and has had 2 huge boys so far! Mocha is showing signs of being not far behind!

X-rays went smoothly, and we were able to get a pretty good view for counting. Rye has seven pups, and Mocha has nine. We have room for a few more reservations, but we won’t know which genders are available until after the birth. The due date is approx. May 26th with pups going home July 20th.

Both Mocha and Rye had their pregnancy confirmation ultrasound today. We couldn’t get a range of the number of pups, but they both looked pretty full! They will be due within a couple days of each other, so we are excited! We will schedule the puppy count x-ray in a couple weeks, but it won’t take place until the week before they are due.

Mocha and Rye have their ultrasounds scheduled for next Thursday afternoon. We’re seeing some pretty clear pregnancy signs from both of them, but we’ve been fooled before. We’ll announce results next Thursday after the appointment and open general reservations at that point. We will have a few male and female reservations still available if they are both pregnant.

Mocha and Rye have both had successful breedings! We did progesterone testing and traveled to Fort Collins to get a transcervical insemination for Rye. Our planned matches (Henry/Rye and Whiskey/Mocha) were successful. Hopefully we’ll have some beautiful babies to send home in July!

We have some very big news! Mocha and Rye both went into heat early at the same time again! We’ve consulted their veterinarian, and we were encouraged to breed them. This means we could have puppies going home a little earlier than we expected if the pregnancies take! We hope to breed around this weekend. The puppies would be due around May 25th, and they would go home around July 20th. We have room for reservations for both of those litters. Some other big news is that Ashlee Dyer is also pregnant and due in September. It’s going to be a busy summer!

Jasper and Henry both completed their final x-rays for their hips and elbows, and they did great! Everything is good to go for their planned breedings this year! We found and fixed a few errors on their k9data pages, so the results can now be seen via their pedigrees which can be accessed via the labeled buttons under their profiles on our website.

Rye and Mocha’s litters have been completely reserved. We have space on the backup list in case any of our families have to give up their reservation, and we have two guardianship opportunities. Please let us know if you’re interested in guardianship or being on the backup list!
