J-S Pups Day 49: 7 Weeks Already!

Miss Stripe

 The countdown until the 8 week puppy party is on and as we do each week now, we took stack photos of the pups along with some fun shots.  Not only are these pups very sweet and confident, but multi-talented and awesome little retrievers.  They take turns retrieving and playing with the metal utility article which is like a dumbbell.

The stack shots aren't always easy to get and this week, we did not have a lot of time so the handler (me) did the best I could.  The final conformation evaluation, which will include hands on grading and watching puppy movement, will be when the pups are 8 weeks old.  Then, along with the results of the temperament testing, we will make the final and extremely important decisons of which pup is the best match for each family.
