Getting Ready

Here is the gallery of both sets of pups.

I am working on name tags for the sherpa bags you should buy before coming to get your puppy. They are most comfortable traveling in them from place to place.

The top tags is the back. The one above is the front and will come with a name and phone #. It will attach to the bag. Blankets etc will have the face of your pup and name.

I have to recreate everything I normally do as the software I used changed and it didn't allow my existing designs to port over. I not only create the designs myself but I print, press and pray no mistakes as each item comes with a hard cost.

I can't add names nor photos of dogs nor create the designs except the items that doesn't have pertinent info. I am thankful that we are having the final visit before pickup tomorrow and Sunday. This will allow puppy selection and the creation of all the things I must do. So, after pups are assigned, we ask that you have your name ready and the pertinent info I acquire to get ready for your pickup. 

We only allow a couple of dogs a day to depart. We have done 3 if there is a good reason but we like to manage moms. 

Be sure to check out the shorts. Plus the main directory of the videos here.
