Go home weekend

We try to schedule go homes on weekends. That way the family and the puppy have time to bond before the family goes back to work/school and leaves the puppy alone. This weekend was go home time for two of our puppies. There are several times in the life of a puppy with us that I enjoy. Them being born, them opening their eyes, them trying to walk and them going home. I do not know who is more nervous, the puppy or the family. It is a big time in the life of the puppy. They are trying to learn to adjust with out mom but with the help of their brothers/sisters. The next step in their life is to learn how to adjust without them but with the help of their new family. We work very hard to find the perfect family for our puppies. Every puppy that leaves our home is told good bye and are given and hug and a kiss from us. We beg our familes to send us updated pictures of the puppies as they grown. If we get a pic from the family I try to put them on the site. This weekend Baxter and Ellie went home to be with their families. I had their stuff packed up and ready for them to go. The smiles on the face of the new family means so much. You know they are loved.

So this weekend was a wonderful weekend for Collins Doxies. We hope that we will have more to come. Sydney will be going home soon. He has a little bit to travel he is going from Tn to PA. But he is going home to Bella. She came from one of our litters last year. The family keeps us updated on her and we were very excited that they decided to add another one of our puppies to their family.
