Annie and Kip have Puppies! Four darling little pups, two boys and two girls. They were born on February 13th/14th. All are all doing well. So is Annie! This is her first litter, but she is taking care of them like a pro. She has been good with us handling her babies, but makes is clear that she wants to be close when we hold them. There’s not much that’s cuter than four tiny tails wagging happily at feeding time!
Meet the puppies:
Myrtle (female)
We often walk through its quiet, myrtle-bordered paths on our way to the other end of the village….

Linden (male)
Wi’ fruit vor me, the apple tree do lean down low in Linden Lea.
– Willian Barnes, “My Orcha’d in Linden Lea.”

Heather (female)
And she’s put on her Highland brogues, to skip amang the heather.
– Anonymous, “Bonnie Lizzie Baillie.”

Bracken (male)
There was a crackling noise in the bracken behind him, and out came Pooh.
– A.A. Milne, (Winnie-the-Pooh).

We are currently looking for homes for these adorable puppies! They will be ready to go to their new homes around mid April. If you are interested in a puppy, you can contact me here: dahlia@halcyonlane.com
