Ace’s First Litter

September 21, 2009

Our new female Ace delivered her first litter of 15 puppies! The first 12 were born healthy, but, because of the extended time of labor and delivery, the last three were born dead. What an exhausting time for her–and for our family who helped her!

: Ace in labor–what a sad face!

: Most of the puppies are now born.

: A mother’s work is never done!

Below are pictures of the twelve puppies, listed in their birth order. We have 6 males and 6 females. Each was only minutes old when the first “baby picture” was taken. I’ll add new pictures as the pups grow and change. These pups will all be rough coats (long haired). We take non-refundable deposits of $200 for a puppy, with the additional $475 due by the time the puppy is 7 weeks old. Please see the rest of our web pages for more info on puppy sales! To date all of the puppies have been sold or have deposits placed to hold them:

NEW ADDITION TO OUR SAINT FAMILY

July 26, 2009

This past summer we acquired another female, Ace, a full sister to Heidi, our female who has given us two beautiful litters of AKC Saint Bernard puppies. We are excited about a fall litter from Ace! She is three years old, and her first litter is due September 19. We bred her to Cujo who sired our first two litters. Below are photos of Ace, our new addition. You can tell by her mask that she appears to be wearing aviator goggles–thus the name Ace! Just looking at her face makes us smile!

NEW LITTER ARRIVED!

April 11, 2009

Heidi and her new puppies

Our second litter of puppies arrived on April 4, 2009. We had 5 males and 4 females. Heidi was a wonderful mother and very attentive to her whelps.

All nine of these puppies have sold and have gone to their new homes. If you would like to be put on our waiting list for the next litter, please contact us. Being added to our waiting list does not obligate you to purchase a puppy, but allows you to be notified before we advertise the puppies for sale.

Shown below are pictures of all 9 puppies starting with their “baby pictures” when they were six days old. The names were selected by our sons John and Daniel. Most buyers renamed their puppies, but these names served as identification for us. [Can you guess what topic our boys recently studied in their history classes?]
