Shilohs of the Salish Sea

Today another new thing. Instead of Boo, The old ladies Midori and Morgen joined us on our walk. They know the old girls from seeing them on their side of the house hold gate but besides kisses and sniffs, had not really had contact up close and for a long time.
The old girls loved it and the pups thought the whole thing was fun.

Today was a new experience for them. Ralph wanted to pressure wash the entire dog porch, so pups ate lunch out in the playhouse, and then spent the entire after noon out there. Every time i checked on them they were either all chasing each other around, or asleep around the grassy edges.
After dinner out there, they had a quick run in the yard then they figured out the ramp and ran back up into the dog porch from a new direction than ever before. Little things like that are surprisingly important for pups. Discovering they can use different entrances, discovering the way around the outside of the house, finding their way around the yard.

They are so big now, so happy and so fun!

More fun in the muddy playhouse

05/01/2026

Pups did some new things today. They ate lunch out on the back 'patio' then had their walk.
They were interested in the almost wrecked playhouse so we wandered over and they all rushed in to explore. They climbed on the old baby toys and dug holes, and kept very busy while Ralph and I gathered up muddy moss covered toys and a ratty old tarp and moved some of the dog decks around.
They loved it! Very interested in anything new.

Yesterday on their 7 week birthday, pups had their Litter Evaluation.
Amazing, and I'm so proud of them! They were all completely happy and willing, adventurous and eager to interact and do all the things required of them! Ralph has great video and more beautiful puppy pictures, but i can't get them to post from his album, even though I made this as a public page. Weird. Tried sending them to me by messenger but that didn't work either.
That's a first! Time to shut the phones off and start over!

Today it was threatening rain but not horrible, so we took the pups out for their daily adventure. We found a different spot to sit and they enjoyed it.

Hooray! We came home from the Feed store r with new puppy collars and the sun had popped out, it warmed to mid fifties and we got the pups out for their first adventure in the yard. It was a hit!

Wednesday play time

04/15/2026

Another busy day, but inside and on the porch, since weather was generally cold and windy. Pups found ways to keep busy or cozy ways to nap.
