Different Requests
Both families tomorrow have requested no videos or no photos for different reasons. So, tonight I will take videos of the pups - the play session that Dennis usually does. After baths I will take a photo of the pups departing with Nathan for a memory in the blog.
One person thought I use these photos for promotion which is the furthest thing from the truth. I do not share them on facebook or anywhere else. They remain here as 'got ya' day for the family to remember and so I can remember the pups departure and they can look years from now at that special memory. That is the intent.
Each of these families will create their own memory in their own way. I will have my own unique memory as well as will Nathan.
But as I need closure, there is a compromise and rarely that understanding is understood. We live and breathe the pups and just because you have another litter doesn't mean you lose that special connection with each. So, Nathan will sub in for the family photo and I will take the last videos after the bath tonight. It will be a memory as it transpired and that's okay.
I post this as you will see Nathan's mug with both pups that are departing tomorrow and if I didn't post you would be confused.
Me, I will get my grooming done and then we move on to the next day.
Instead of sharing the moment with the families, I will be grooming and Nathan will take out their pup out to do paperwork and answer any questions. I will - well groom vs going crazy after and inbetween to get March Break dogs done. Two more pups will be washed after departures. I am sure visits for pickups will be quick.

I treasure the photo you took of us the day we took Charlotte home.
It’s hard to remember how tiny she was.
Natalie: I am glad. It's about the memories and it is fun to look back and go wow... I do that myself from time to time. Treasured memories!
I love looking at your photos of the pups at each mark of time passing. It made the 2 year wait so manageable to be able to see pups go to their happy families knowing our time will come. Thank you for doing it all!
It will be sad not to have the pup’s family photo. I love looking at those happy moments too.
I love the photo and video memories and I do understand everyone’s circumstances are unique that this might not work. Great idea to capture the moment and have your closure with other pics. I can totally understand needing the closure as we had puppies growing up.
Happy pups being held by Nathan will be the best. All the pups are so bonded with you, Nathan, and Dennis.
I often look at the picture of Stella and I the day I brought that little monkey home.I love ❤️ It. Each to their own though.
I was wondering why Nathan was holding the pup above! Now I know. I so love those new 'family' photos.... I treasure ours and often look back on them. Hugs
