A little life update & some thoughts on our future breeding plans!
As some of you may know, I’ve recently started a new job! With this exciting new chapter comes some decisions regarding our future breeding plans here at Marvel Retrievers.
While I absolutely look forward to the possibility of welcoming more little Marvel pups into the world, I’ve always believed that breeding should happen when the time is right, not simply because there’s a litter planned.
Before either of our girls is bred, both will undergo their full OFA health testing. Beyond that, my priority is making sure they’re physically and mentally mature, healthy, and prepared for everything that comes with pregnancy, whelping, and raising puppies.
Right now, producing another litter simply isn’t at the top of my priority list. Doing things right is.
With starting a new job, I also have to be realistic about my time and responsibilities. Bringing puppies into the world isn’t something I take lightly. When my girls whelp, I want to be there. Not just for the delivery, but for the days and weeks that follow. Mom and babies deserve my undivided attention, and that’s something I’m not willing to compromise on.
I can’t be in two places at once, and I don’t want to rush into taking extended time away from a job I’ve only just started.
So for now, we’re focusing on health testing, enjoying our dogs, continuing to work toward our goals, and making sure that when the time comes, everyone is set up for success.
Our future plans aren’t going anywhere. We’re just allowing ourselves the time to do things the right way. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who continues to follow along and support our little Marvel family!
