SNOOPY IS SOLD!
Her name has been changed to Jesse and she is in her new home in Ontario.

MAC X MAGGIE
Meet Snoopy and The Red Baron
Snoopy | Red Baron

MEET SNOOPY and go through the stages of her life from birth through to her change into Jesse and her life with her new owners!

Day 2 - Snoopy is a yellow female. She has had her dew claws removed.
Snoopy and her brother, Baron, are both good sized pups and we anticipate them
racing to catch up with "The Gunfighters". Maggie has so much milk
and her pups tend to grow very quickly. Snoopy is very feisty.
She also has something I've never come across before - she has a tiny white triangle on her forehead.
She is definitely 100% purebred Lab with no possibility of any oopses so this marking must be
a throwback from way down her ancestor tree. If anyone looking at this site has any information
on other Labs with white markings in places other than toes or chest please email me.
quickdraw@mts.net

Day 4 - Jesse (Snoopy) has doubled in size in just 2 days and is growing like crazy.

Day 6 - Jesse (Snoopy) is very feisty and already crawls out of the basket, even though she can't see yet.

ps don't forget the vet's paper and we'll let you know within the next couple of days of the names.

Hi Sharalee: just thought I'd update you. We've had 2 days of 'accident-free' !! She's a fast learner, but STUBBORN !!!!!! You must've taught her to sit, as she does that well, her 'come' isn't there yet, but I've enrolled her in puppy school (probably for my sake more than hers). She gets her 1st visit with her personal vet next Sat Jul 5th.

As soon as I download the pics from the camera, I'll send you some. Pat swears she's doubled in size already - not quite - but she is growing.

Will follow thru shortly with pics

Hi Sharalee; here's some pics of the little girl. Boy does she have a mind of her own!!! BUT very intelligent. It only took us 4 days to housebreak her. We've had only 2-3 little accidents since. She met her vet, is enrolled in puppy kindergarten, HATES the leash, knows quite a few words already, pen (for outside) kennel for inside, sit, down, the stay I'm working on, it'll come. She was afraid of the stairs going to basement for our family room, but now, she goes up/down no problem.

Hi Sharalee: Things are good, last vet visit she was 30 lbs.!!!! One more shot in Sept, then spaying in October. Jesse is very stubborn, a quick learner, still chews on everything. I forgot what it was like having a puppy. I'm glad you talked me out of getting that 2nd one. She's comfortable in her pen outside and very comfortable with the kennel inside. We even put her in there when it's our supper time, so she doesn't come around the table & 'beg'. Here's some pictures from a few days ago, we've got more but haven't downloaded them from the camera yet, soon.... Pat tried to send you a video, but it didn't go thru, maybe too big.... Anyway I've got her walking A LOT, min 30 min in the morning, and again in the evening, so she's getting enough exercise. Keep in touch....Lisa

Hi Sharalee: I have a question about the pups, it's something I haven't come across. Jesse 'whines' a lot, Do/did any of your dogs do this behaviour? I asked the vet, she thinks maybe it's 'growing pains' but I'm not so sure of it all the time. /What do you think??

...Lisa

Hi Lisa

Hmmm Probably just the particular personality of that pup. Her father whines a lot too. It is trying sometimes and does get on my nerves - but he is also my favorite of all our dogs. He has the most personality - is easily the smartest too. Maybe it has something to do with intelligence levels - they need more to stimulate their mind and get bored easily? Not sure - but I know Mac is the same way. The older he gets the better he is but he still does it even now when he is very excited about something and held back.

Sharalee

you may be on to something there - boredom - although we try to keep her very busy, just sometimes we can't spend 24/7 with her. Thanks ... you may be on to something there - boredom - although we try to keep her very busy, just sometimes we can't spend 24/7 with her. Thanks for your input, & good to know it's in the genes !!! And yes; she has personality and VERY SMART and trying at times, but that's just the puppy in her, we can deal with that !!

Thanks Sharalee, for your help

..Lisa

Hi Lisa

I'm glad she is with you and you appreciate her. It is the best things in life that are always the hardest to get (put up with) - your patience with her will be rewarded. Trust me on that - I wouldn't trade Mac for any other dog - even if some days I'd like to strangle the squeak out of him :) Jesse is a very well bred dog - bred for high intelligence and energetic retrieving so like any fine athlete - there's a bit more maintenance - but a most worthwhile product :)

Your very welcome for the help - any questions - anytime,ok?

Sharalee

***************************************

Hi Sharalee: we have a first !!! Jesse's first tooth loss - - bottom middle FYI

but she still is a chewer/biter/shit..... chews & gnaws on everything & anything. I keep old face cloths wet in the freezer, really helps her a lot....

We left her alone for the first time tonight - we had a party to go to - she did well for over 4 hrs in her kennel, but boy she sure was glad when we got home !!!

...just an update....Lisa

***************************************

Hi Sharalee: Just thought I'd share these 2 pictures......BTW - she's teething big time & kindergarten classes are going great!!

***************************************

Hi Sharalee: just going thru my files and noticed we haven't received 2 certificates yet: Purebred Dog Certificate of Registration (we have Mac & Maggie) and Hip Dysplasia Certificate (we have Zip & Babe). I guess it really isn't that important, but I'd rather make sure I have them - just me being a bit anal !!

BTW - Jesse is scheduled for spaying in October, growing like a weed, starting to really listen & obey -that's the key word. I walk her 2x daily & sometimes I ride my bicycle and she's on the leash, so she gets a real good run .

That's about it for now, hope to hear from you. How's her brother doing?? Is he getting big also??

...Lisa

***************************************

Hi Sharalee: we were at the vets last Saturday, you wouldn't believe the little porker!!!! she weighs 49.5 lbs !!! But the vet didn't say anything about being overweight, cause she looks really good Hope you don't mind me sending photos, I'm not sure what others do, but I just think you might be interested in the progress of your pups!!

BTW.... she goes in Oct 27 for spaying

***************************************

Hey Sharalee: officially now we have a multi-cultural puppy: Patrick being Irish, me being Italian, dog being Canadian (Labrador) and she loves a Finn sauna;. she didn't want us in by ourselves tonight, so we gave her a bath and she just sat on the bench, just like she belonged!!!! unbelievable, just wanting to be with us ! she's an unbelievable puppy, not afraid of anything (so far) takes to everything like it was a natural thing to do....we are very pleased with our choice of breeder !!

thank you

....Lisa
