The pups will be 5 weeks old tomorrow and the time is just flying by. It has been a fun five weeks, and they are getting to be a handful! Every time I go outside, I find about half of them have escaped the whelping box and are either roaming around the patio leaving little messes everywhere, or are snuggled up napping on the steps. It's not too big of a problem because there isn't too much they can get into in the patio. John Carstens and his wife came down Monday to look at the pups. John is the owner of Baker the male I bred to, and is getting another male out of this litter. He took Baker along, and once again we were amazed at the striking resemblence Belle and Baker have to each other. It was fun getting to know John and his wife Clare and I really look forward to getting to know the rest of you when you come out and see the pups. They were both impressed at how well the pups were doing. The pups are really starting to show their personalities and it is fun to watch them as they grow. I really look forward to the next couple of weeks when they really start to show who they are as pups and their future capabilities.
Rock Solid Pointing Labs began in 2004 when we purchased our first pointing lab. Back then we did not know how one dog could have such a powerful impact on our lives. Belle is solely responsible for our love and passion for hunting, for our love and passion for the outdoors, and our love and passion producing high end labradors. Our goal is to pass on this love and passion for generations to come. For more information contact: jjfranken@premieronline.net
