Previous Litters Lana and Johnny - litter born December 28, 2010
Ch
Setherwood Ulana CGN (Lana) was bred during the last week of October to
Ch Fantango Johnny Walker (Johnny). She delivered 6 puppies (4 males
and 2 females) on December 28, 2010. The pups will
be ready to go to their new homes beginning on February 20, 2011. These dogs have all their health clearances (hips, hearts and eyes), are in excellent health and have wonderful temperaments. This is Lana's third and final litter. We have been very pleased with the quality of her pups in her litters and kept a pup (Phyllis) as a future breeding dog. After the pups are weaned, Lana will retire to live with her new family in Richmond Hill where she will enjoy being a much-loved only dog. Johnny is an Australian import from the Fantango kennels. Fantango combines the top English lines to produce their own unique look. He has a wonderful temperament and outgoing personality and should combine well with Lana to produce outstanding puppies. Birthday - December 28, 2010
See how they grow Each week or so we will take a picture of the same pup beside the pink pig to show how the pups are growing. We will also post other pictures of Lana and her pups following this section.
One week old
Two weeks old Unfortunately, one of the male pups died at 9 days of age. It appeared that his lungs did not develop properly. The other 5 pups are doing well. Their eyes opened at 12 days. They still can't hear but will in a few days.
Three weeks old. The 5 pups continue to develop well. They can hear, their teeth have come through (Lana is sooo pleased) and they are starting to play together. They will soon start on puppy food (Lana is sooo pleased).
Visiting Hours - January 22, 2011 This was the first time the pups were were able to meet their new owners outside of the whelping area. At first they were shy, then they began to enjoy the new experience and then they fell asleep. Four weeks old This was an eventful week for the pups as they learned to eat dog food, moved out of the whelping box to new quarters and began the weaning process.
Visiting Hours - January 30 Visiting hours are a great opportunity for the pups to meet their new owners and to become comfortable with people. And the new owners and guests seemed to have a good time too. A nice afternoon for all involved. Five weeks old. The pups are continuing to do well. They have found their voices and discovered that the sound of the gate opening means that food is coming. Weaning is proceeding on schedule (Lana is sooo pleased).
Six weeks old The pups had their first time outside on a mild but snowy day. They are very active and are willing to try new things - like jumping over barriers and playing with their toys. They are nursing only once each day and eating 4 times a day.
Seven weeks old The pups had a very eventful week. They were chosen by their new families. They had their first vet examination (all fine), vaccine, were microchipped and de-wormed. Finally, they said "Goodbye and thanks" to mother Lana.
Eight weeks old - going home The day that each family looked forward to for so long has finally arrived.
