Red girl was born first, breech and cyanotic and smaller than everyone else. She is doing ok so far, but think good thoughts for her ❤️

Good morning from the whelping box! Everyone is doing ok. I slept next to them in a sleeping bag overnight and Jewel doesn’t want to leave them for even a second. They’re getting lots of surveillance as they start their first full day of life!

Thrilled to introduce seven new baby Kooikers to the world!

More later once we’ve had a nap, but Jewel did great and all puppies are healthy!

Congratulations to the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show invitees for 2027. Very excited for Bridget and Paxton to have achieved an invite! We will be rooting for them from afar in February! 💜

Creek walks are sans Jewel now. She has a lot of FOMO about this but she’s way too pregnant to accompany us now! Day 57!

Believe it or not, I got 3 requests to show what is in our puppy go-home bags!

My philosophy is that go-home bags aren’t meant to be everything you will need for your new puppy. Half the fun of a new puppy is getting to shop for them! The stuff in the bags is designed to ease their travels and transition home, and provide owner support as they settle in.

My breed info sheet for vets is available on my website - it explains what issues they may or may not see, how we report issues, and how to contact me. My Kooiker Guide is not online but I can send it to anyone who might want a copy. It’s the Cliff’s Notes version of other breed-info materials, coupled with puppy raising pointers.

Puppy families also get access to a Google Drive with a ton of resources including full books, training protocols, infographics, Kooiker resources, and an .ICS file for online calendar management of key dates like vaccine timing, milestones, etc.

Excited to meet these puppies next week!

7⃣ First look: who guessed 7 Jewel x Paxton puppies?! 7⃣

Poor Jewel did not want to go out to potty in the cool morning before this so yes, it's not the greatest image. We see 7 with the tiny possibility of an 8th hiding. We have already prepared colors and chips, and are insanely excited to meet these little ones! 🐾

This litter is mostly fully spoken for by our approved puppy families, but we’re keeping a short waitlist in case plans change and for upcoming planned litters. Applications welcome via the website.

For now, we eagerly await their arrival on approximately Halloween! 🎃

Now is time to color-code puppy materials, go home bags, and prep to make sure I have one of everything for each baby!
