We are so lucky to have such wonderful puppy forever homes for the Iditarod litter. Here are some first pictures and stories.

"Three things we've learned about Ms. River so far: 1. She loves cuddles. She's always happiest when she's on the bed with us or in someone's lap or arms. 2. She seems to think she likes coffee (don't worry, she hasn't had any!). Whenever we're drinking it, she smells it and tries to get her nose into our cups. 3. She falls asleep with her (very long) tongue sticking out of her mouth. She'll sleep for 15 or 20 minutes before noticing and pulling it back in. I'm still trying to get a good picture of this behavior to send to you."

"Muku is doing very well...she is so smart and taking well to training. She sits to greet people, and is getting used to all the action at our place. She gets to watch the kids play hockey from the front porch...and soon will learn to play goalie like the neighbours dog does. she has met the mailman, as well as the garbage and recycling guys (although she was a little unsure about their trucks!) ... Ben playing with his beloved puppy. He is so protective and proud of her. Whenever other kids come to see her, he insists on holding the leash and telling them that she is HIS puppy. "
