Sorry!

I thought I was posting a lot lately... Come to find there was an error and the last three posts didn't come through!  Gotta love technology, sorry about that!



Some family

Here's Logan's mama dog (and Ali's gramma) Grayce, who is 13 and going strong. Her sisters and brother are also doing well. Hopefully many more years of adventures!


A few photos


A few photos while we wait for tomorrow evening :)

I took the dogs for a walk to enjoy the nice weather. They were pooped by the end, mainly the heat wearing them out.. Sounds funny to call 65*'s "hot" but it was warm in the sun, particularly coming from winter! Seems like we are hurdling spring and hitting summer! Anyway, a few pictures from our walk and then in the backyard sporting their new collars. If you'd like to peruse, www.collaraddict.com hand makes collars custom for your dog. If you want puppy collars that are adjustable she can do that as well, and just let Lynn know you're getting a puppy from us and she'll know what size to make it!





Ali and Oscar's final date

Ahh, young love. Ali and Oscar have had their final date today ("today" being Tuesday the 30th!).... Send your best thoughts to Ali's eggs which should be being fertilized today! It all starts with that ... And from that we get 70lbs gray dogs. Isn't Mother Nature amazing? It's now all in fates hands! Cross your fingers :)

Pretty Ali and handsome Oscar pleased with themselves after their date and enjoying a beautiful day in the Northwest!

Week 3!

As we start on Week 3, we count down to the ultrasound a week from tomorrow :) Check to see if we have some babies baking! Also, Ali has come into season and we plan to breed her this weekend! She will be just about 3 weeks behind Story if it all goes as planned. We are excited to keep everyone posted as we get more information.

Week 3: Story is still enjoying her daily walks and doesn't skip a meal! This week puppies are developing important organs.

Here we are sleeping on the sofa...

Sleeping on the bed while Lhotse lays on her and Logan cuddles up behind :)

Sleeping on the floor, so she can spread out a bit!

Snuggles

When you have 3 gray things they kind of just turn into one big gray thing.... :)

Week 2

So, here we are 14 days past ovulation, the little blastocytes should be implanting and this coming week their organs start developing. Send good thoughts to Miss Story and all the little blastocytes we hope are in there :)

2 more weeks before we find out if they are in there!

Updates

Awesome weekend for a pair of the Gambling (Ali x Wager) bros!! Colby earned his CA (Coursing Ability) title today with 4 straight Q's in CA (California! Hehe) with his Mom Em Panico making him Nat/IntBA Highpoint's All In CA RATN CGC woot!! And King won WD/BOW for his first points towards his bench Championship at the Seattle Kennel Club show handled by Gary! He won Reserve yesterday (handled by the awesome Cathy Ceely) which is a bang up first weekend out! We saw him recently and discovered how well he had matured and his wonderful parents Megan and Brandon Snow have generously allowed him to come out to show. Great job guys - many congratulations and thank you for all your hard work!

And a recent photo for Ludo (Green, Top) ... For fun. What a bookish fellow 🤓





Storms!

Tonight after work we cleaned up after the storm... Power is out here, so we'll have to snuggle up on the sofa together :)

Here they are wondering where I take the yard waste bins!

One more

It's Spring... Maybe not officially, but according to all the plant life :)


Week 1


Here we again!! 2016 breeding season has began at Highpoint Weims and we hope our Dance litter (Story x Logan) are cooking in mama's belly. 

I've been down with the flu for a week and a half now. So no one at my house is getting enough exercise. However on our walk today (first since I've been sick!) one week out, I took a photo to start our weekly photos every Thursday. Also, I've attached what's hopefully going on biologically right now. 

Thanks and watch for our updates as we progress :)
