CURRENT PUPDATES
From our home to yours
Our puppies are raised with structure, affection, and consistency. We work closely with each family to help ensure the right fit — not just for now, but for years to come.
We’re here to answer questions, offer guidance, and remain a resource long after puppies go home.
🐾 Puppies Are Here! 🐾
Our long-awaited litters have officially arrived, and our hearts (and laundry room) are full. Fiona welcomed nine beautiful puppies, while Coco welcomed one very special little boy. Everyone is healthy, growing, and keeping us wonderfully busy. Thank you for following along as we begin this exciting new chapter with these precious pups.
Fiona & Claude — Royal Litter Update
Born May 19, 2026
Nine beautiful puppies arrived safely: 5 girls and 4 boys.
Fiona and all puppies received a clean bill of health at their veterinary examination and are doing well. To help balance nursing demands, four puppies have been placed with Coco, who has happily accepted the role of foster mom alongside her own puppy.
Fiona is currently raising five puppies, while Coco is also caring for five. Both mothers and all puppies are thriving.
Current Availability: We are working through our applicant list and deposit holders in the order received. Individual puppy reservations will be made once personalities begin to emerge over the coming weeks.
Coco & Pecco — Coffeehouse Litter Update
Born May 20, 2026
Coco welcomed one handsome tuxedo tri male, affectionately known as Arlo.
At his veterinary examination, Arlo received a clean bill of health and is thriving. In true Coco fashion, she has also welcomed four foster puppies from Fiona's litter and is caring for all five babies as though they were her own.
Motherhood appears to suit Coco beautifully, and both she, Arlo and her 4 Foster puppies are doing exceptionally well.
🐾 Program Notes
🐾The Pack
Rooney and Jane continue to mature, and we are thoughtfully observing their development as future prospects within our program. All decisions remain guided by health testing, temperament, and long-term goals.
Polly, in the meantime, has made a noticeable shift in behavior and seems quite committed to staying on everyone’s good side.
Agnes continues to grow into a beautiful young female, quietly taking it all in.
💛 What’s Next
Right now, our moms are focused on raising healthy, happy puppies—and we're focused on supporting them every step of the way.
Over the coming weeks we'll be sharing regular updates, photos, and milestones as personalities begin to shine. Around 7 weeks of age, puppies will complete temperament evaluations to help guide family selections. Before heading home, each puppy will receive veterinary care, age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, and plenty of socialization and enrichment.
For now, we're soaking up every sleepy yawn, puppy squeak, and wagging tail. We can't wait to watch these little ones grow.
Warmly,
Kate & Craig 🐾
