New litter on the way!

Our Phoenix, who turns 2 in early March, was bred a few weeks ago and is now (we expect) pregnant and due to deliver her first litter a few weeks after her second birthday. Phoenix is a light apricot girl with a black nose, about 22 lbs and 17" at the shoulder. She was bred to Brodie of Canadian Doodle Puppies, a chocolate phantom with white markings (tri-colour) who is a bit bigger than Pheonix. He carries the genes to produce cream puppies and parti puppies. Phoenix carries chocolate and phantom, but not parti. So with the two of them, we can expect a real rainbow litter - cream-caramel-apricot with brown or black noses, chocolate in solid or phantom, and black in solid or phantom. We expect these pups will be large minis or small mediums - 20-30 lbs, 15-17" at the shoulder.

We plan to keep both a male and a female back from this litter, so will be looking for guardian homes as well as pet puppy families. These pups are due around March 19, give or take 4 days. We have an ultrasound scheduled for February 24 to confirm pregnancy and get a preliminary puppy count. There is already some interest in this litter, so if you would like to get on our waiting list please contact me soon. Deposits will be accepted following confirmation of pregnancy in late February.
