[Southern by choice]

awh gosh, i just love that nose picture!

My littlest DD took that... she was standing here looking at the pics I put up last night and she smiled and said "I thought for sure you would delete that pic, didn't think you'd like just a nose."
I told her I love it and I scrolled down and she just read your post!

You made her day! Mine too!

Love the pictures! It looks like the pups found someone comfortable to cuddle with

The pups sure are getting big!

Those boys are growing FAST! Wow are they getting big! What a beautiful batch of pups ! Congrats once again.

How is Callie doing at this point? Has she recovered/regained more strength? Completely out of the woods yet? Still needing coddling? Any more pizza dinners ? Speaking of which, pizza sounds like a good dinner for me here. Maybe I'll break down and go out to http://www.papamurphys.com/ and pick up a pie to bring home My dog might get a few of the crusts

They are getting big! Sounds like the beginning of training is going well. I'm looking forward to hearing about how they all progress.

Thank You, we are smitten for sure!
Callie is doing better each day. Drying up now which is helping immensely! This coming week I will do another draw and send it in to check all her levels...again. Hoping this is the last draw I need to do.
It was very cold here this am.. 2 degrees (unusual for NC) and she was LOVING IT! She went out and ran with 3 of the pyrs! They played hard. Yesterday she got to have time with her boys, D and Tiggs.
Coddling? Me???? Of course! She doesn't need it but she gets it!

Pizza... yep!
Tonight 3 lbs of ham right out of the oven as well as an omelet... yeah, she turns her nose up at dog food. Unless it is mixed with cottage cheese.
She is back to guarding every feed bowl in the house. My poor German Shepherd wants her house back.
She sleeps on the couch takes my pillow, and stretches out at her will.

I imagine she will be ready in another week or two to be back out full time. She has lost her winter coat though through pregnanct and being in so we will see... unusually cold here. I am wondering if I will have to move my couch out to her field.

Thanks for asking. Callie is truly the way the breed was intended. The smallest child can love on her, she is welcoming but discerning of strangers yet she is a very fierce guardian. Her temperament is exactly what a Toli should be.

Well so far they have progressed right into my heart!
Little PT is the one I am most surprised with. He is going to be something! Very attentive, always watching, stands upright, first out, first curious, no timidity... not overly bold but bold. And not so runty anymore!
Blue Collar is "my" boy! I love this dog! I want him.
I also am smitten with Green Collar.

Irritated with UC Davis..... timed out on my submittal info... but half info is in half isn't ... NO ONE WILL ANSWER THE PHONE! NO ONE WILL CALL BACK! They say leave # and message and we will call back... no they don't. I have never had issues with UC Davis but this is a different division... I guess maybe they are super busy. I just thought all this would be done by now. Hoping it is this week.

I defy anyone to view those pictures and not smile.

Yes, I love the nose picture too!

Those puppies are so adorable! How can you stand being around all that cuteness?

With the severe cold snap we are enduring and needing to keep pups off of ice so they don't splay they have been in their indoor stall... well 10 growing pups means you clean out that stall constantly.
We brought the whole litter in the house for some lovin' and so the stall could get cleaned...

Let me just say...

10 pups .. the testosterone is flying! They have also grown some legs and look like real dogs... act like real dogs, wrestle like real dogs, eat like BIG dogs, POOP like big dogs too!

After they wrestled, ate ,pooped they all crashed!
Pyrs are far cleaner than Anatolians... just sayin'

Tried to get pics but none came out.

Got some weights but their official weigh ins won't be til 7 wkks... right now we have the 2 smallest at 15.3 the largest 18 the basic range is 17. Trying to keep them on the lean side. They will be heavy boned and don't need issues.

Next deworming coming up. And looks like I will need to go through another company for DNA. UC Davis has really been terrible at getting back to us. I am really irritated to say the least.

High of 17 today with WC 8. Right now 13 WC -2! Will be very cold tonight. Pups doing ok though.
Callie is living the life sleeping on the couch but is guarding in the house She has her "spot" and the funny thing is everyone in the house moves out of the way when she wants to take her spot on the couch. Yep, she trained them well.
