All puppies in this litter have found their forever homes * * Another litter from these two were not exactly what we had in mind right now. However, Trooper and Olympia had other ideas, Trooper is the sneakiest and quickest dog ever. I really think they decided that since their last litter was so awesome we really needed another one!!
At any rate, here they are, and we're very excited, to be sure.

This was a very exciting delivery!! Way too much time lapsed between puppies, so off to the vet we went. First time we've needed veterinary assistance during a whelping, and thanks to the "Luck of the Irish," and a great Veterinarian, Vita and her 4 puppies are great. She was so brave in the hospital, I was very proud of her. My sweet, adorable little velcro girl. * * * * *

3 This guy is absolutely adorable, I love male Rat Terriers. He's gentle, sweet, so lovable and very brave. Went on a walk all around the ranch today, all pups were very outgoing but had to stop and explore everything.

19 This adorable little imp ran full tilt boogie up the driveway to the top parking area, following her Mom. But - Mom disappeared! Here I'm sure she's asking Porsche, "have you seen my Mommy?" SO cute.
20 Very nice fronts on all these puppies. They're going to be small but substantial, good bone.

Took all puppies to a park by SJ Airport so one of them could get on a plane with his new Dad and fly to Arkansas. They loved this park, they were all stressed from the car ride and their vet check so they had a ball in this beautiful warm grass.

25 Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
26 May 11, Killarney leaves with her new Mom Chris and sister Emma. She'll be staying here in SJ so I can see her with some regularly.
Killarney will be shown if all goes as we hope, miss you baby girl.
