I thought this was so funny! This is the littlest puppy (pictured below). As I said, she is strong! She was not giving up after mama turned over. Ha!!

Jewel's puppy

This is Jewel's smallest puppy. She is so strong. I worried about her at first but she has shown me that she can hang with the rest of them! Jewel is such a great mother & so protective.

Jewel's 2011 puppies

Jewel had her puppies on a Wednesday night, June 8th. Four females and one male!! These are some very tiny puppies. In this picture, they were just born and still wet. She started pushing at 9:15 and had her first puppy at 10:00. With in an hour, she had had all five puppies. She had such an easy delivery. I was so relieved. I've experienced around 15 births and every time one of my mamas start contracting, I get nervous. Sometimes it's hard to tell whether they are in distress and need help and if the vet needs to be called. It can be very stressful for me, not to mention the dogs!! Then when it's over, I worry about the puppies eating and hope the mama doesn't lay on them. I've learned to let nature take its course. There is absolutely nothing you can do to get a puppy to nurse. They all seem to figure it out though.

Tips on buying a puppy

A couple of tips on buying a puppy. There are so many breeds of dogs to choose from and so many breeders of those dogs to choose from.
1) I encourage all buyers to check out a breeders facility or kennels.
2) Some people don't realize all of the different registries there are. In my opinion, AKC is the best registry. 3) Always look at the parents of the puppies.
4) Ask to see the pedigree or lineage of the puppies. You don't want an inbred dog.
5) Take your puppy to the vet as soon as you get it home and have it checked out.
6) Ask about limited and unlimited registration. Limited means that you don't have breeding rights. Unlimited, of course, means that you do have breeding rights.

To tell you a little about my operation. I have four breeding females and one male. This number allows me to still be able to give them the attention, care, and love they need. I have indoor/outdoor kennels which are heated and cooled. These are indoor dogs and need to be kept warm and cool. My dogs get regular baths and their beds are washed at that time. I take them to the groomer twice a year. My dogs are very active and love to run and play. They are let out every day to play, and at that time, their kennels are cleaned. The main reason they are kenneled at all is to keep them safe and protected from the weather and to keep my house from smelling like a kennel! Ha!
My pregnant females get to stay in the house where they get extra pampering. They have a special crate set up in my bedroom where they give birth. The puppies remain in the house until they are around 5 weeks old. They are then moved to the kennels where they learn very quickly how to walk up the ramp to the dogie door to go in and out of their own private little room. This helps them, in a way, start house training themselves. I don't give shots myself. I take my puppies to a great vet in town where they are checked over thoroughly.

I feed only the best food. I've tried several different brands of food and researched others. Blue Buffalo seems to be the best for my dogs. It has only natural ingredients with no corn.

If you have any other question, please feel free to ask. I'm still learning and improving what I do all of the time. :)

Happy buying!

Lee's Lil Jewel

Meet Jewel! She is my second to youngest female. She has a very sweet and loving disposition which her puppies seem to inherit. She is Brighton's full sister from a different litter. She weighs around 6lbs and is silver and tan in color. Jewel is pregnant with her second litter and she is due the second week of June. Leo is the sire. I'm very excited about this next litter. She had very small puppies last year and I expect the same this time as well!

Brighton's female pup


This is one of Brighton's female puppies with eyes open!! All of the females are around the same size and they all look exactly alike at the moment.  They don't start looking different until after 6 weeks or so and even then, it's hard to tell them apart. Funny, but scary story: after work, I went to check on the puppies before heading to Huntsville and 2 were out of their crate, 1 was in the middle of the floor and 2 were missing! Brighton, for some crazy reason, had tried to move them outside. She had two under a sand box in the middle of the yard! I found them in the dirt. I was so aggravated with her. They are 2 weeks old and I've never had a mama try to move her puppies, especially outside away from me. I'm not sure why she did it. I changed the puppies bedding thinking maybe that was the problem. I have a doggie door in my room. I'm hoping she won't try it again. She could hurt them or a snake could get them! She left them there through the night. I'll have to go home and check on her today. Crazy dog!!

Lee's Prowln' Liam

Meet Liam! He is out of Cinderella's Feb 2010 litter of puppies. His sire is my Leo. I kept him for a while, thinking that I might use him as a second stud. I later decided to sell him and find a stud that was from a different blood line than my other dogs. Before I sold him, I bred him one time and now I have a litter from him. I bred him to Brighton and he did his job well! She had five babies, posted below, which is a lot for a yorkie, and the most I've had in a long while. If you are interested in puppies, please contact me anytime!!
To give an example of how tolerant my dogs are with each other: in the back, looking at the camera, is Cinderella. In the front, curled up, is her grown daughter from her first litter, Ariel, and the three black blobs around them are Cinder's 5 week old puppies. They were all trying to cram into the one little dog bed. It was so funny, I had to get a picture. ((Just a note, there was another bed on the opposite wall.)) Ha!!

(Abby) Brighton's '10 puppy


Meet Abby! These are before owner and then after owner pictures. She was the smallest puppy in Brighton's litter from 2010. She is almost 9 mths now, full grown, and weighs under 3lbs! She is a dark gold and black like her mama. Her owner says that she goes everywhere with her. I love to see pictures and hear stories about my past puppies. I feel like I'm contributing to people's happiness. :)

Brighton's April 9, 2011 babies

Here is two out of five of my puppies from my second litter this year.There are three females and two males.
I have a small hand and they both fit! Mama's name is Brighton, sire is Liam, and this is her second litter.
She is a great mother. This is the quietest litter I've had yet.
All of my babies are born in my room and stay there until 5-6 weeks. They are then transferred out to the indoor/outdoor kennels where they learn to go through a doggie door and in a way house train themselves. All of my dogs are let out to play everyday in my very large back yard. All of my mama dogs are very tolerant of each other's puppies. All puppies becomes very socialized with dogs and children.
