Tilly from Marshmallows ACoTaR litter is looking a lot like her mom but she acts so much like her dad 🤣 We love getting to see her ♥️

Daddy Ridge apparently had a big day 🤣 It will never fail to amaze me just how goofy they can still be while sleeping.

It’s always Lab 🤣 Just saying…

Well it’s happening! A trip to their grandpas always seems to do the trick. I cannot wait for another bunch of these guys!! I’ll be reaching out to previous families for pictures and updates (if I don’t already get them) so I can share what the other pairing with these guys has grown into. I can’t believe that by the time this bunch goes home the others will almost be two 🥹

We don’t and never will remove dew claws. Here’s some facts on why ♥️

Dew Claws: What You Should Know

There’s a lot of mixed information out there about dew claws.

After speaking with multiple reputable veterinarians, we’ve learned they’re more than just “extra toes.”
They’re connected to tendons and play a role in a dog’s movement and stability.

Some dogs may never have issues if they’re removed.
But others can develop discomfort or long-term changes as they age.

That’s something we take seriously.

Not all dew claws are the same either.
The ones that are tight to the foot are typically not a long-term concern.
Loose ones can have a higher risk of injury and just need to be managed properly.

We choose to keep them.

Not because it’s easier
but because we believe in preserving structure and focusing on proper care.

We don’t remove them. We manage them.

The time is here! Lettie has started her heat ♥️ We will be doing a repeat of their last litter together and could not be more excited!! We’ve had all of the tests come back favourable and cannot wait to finally have another batch of littles!

We will be contacting everyone that has submitted an application by end of the week to conduct the initial phone interviews but we will still have space at this time. We’ve had nothing but amazing feedback from their first litter and I’m so excited to welcome a second batch of these beautiful babies for some lucky families!!

Hi all!! Sorry we’ve been absent and with a recent influx of messages about upcoming litters we’re due for an update.

Life has thrown a lot of curve balls at us lately and we’ve been buried by life. This includes stuff with our furry family members. Lettie and Ridge had their annual eye appointments and of course passed and Lettie has had more testing to ensure she is good to go for her next heat. When will that be? The best answer I can give is: soon 🤷🏼‍♀️

That being said we are gaining interest in this litter and will be opening applications for everyone. We have some people that have been waiting for this litter and will be giving them first choice to stay on this or move to the next. Then once she is in active heat we will be able to give more updates.

At this time a repeat breeding is likely to be the route we go with these two but I have also been looking into some darker red outside options. Everyone on the waitlist will be informed of who we go with once we have it fully decided.

If you’re interested in being on this waitlist you can fill out our basic application here:

Just a Marshmallow being a cute little lab ♥️

This girl absolutely slays me laying like this everywhere. I was sitting on the floor cuddling Lettie and she starts this 🤣 Then I made eye contact, started a video and she gets off just to lay by my foot like that. She truly is a Marshmallow lol

Although we’re ready for winter to be done, I can say with certainty that Lettie is still loving it 🤣
