Cedar 09 Litter

Cali has become the fourth girl in the Hartwig family. She shall never lack for attention in this group! Thanks for these great pictures, Kathryn!

Now Thule seems to be living the life! Which toy should she choose? It looks like the cat has warmed right up to her, too! Thanks for these great pictures, Jan.

All of the puppies took home a pink and blue rope. The ropes were made and sent from Leann Henry, owner of Sunny from last year's litter. Thanks, Leann!

Lelo spends her days playing with small children at a nursery school owned by Bev. She has learned to do amazing things already and is very calm with the children. Bev wants to put her in therapy training soon.

Thule is Cedar's apricot girl. She had entropion of the left lower eyelid, and we are praising God that she has outgrown it by four months of age and her eyelid is completely normal at this time. She is a beautiful girl! Thanks, Jan, for this beautiful pose of your Thule!

Could it be Peter Cottontail? No, it's Lelo, modeling for Easter pictures as you will find poodles so good at doing! Lelo is Cedar and Max's very dark red girl. She also had entropion of the lower eye lids and completely outgrew the condition by four months. She is a gorgeous red girl and very good with the children at Bev's preschool as you can see in the picture above! Thanks, Bev, for these adorable pictures!

This is Kaylee at almost 5 months of age. She weighs 30 pounds and is very friendly and full of energy. She goes everywhere with her owner, Tom, in his truck, car, and even on his motorcycle and snowmobile! She also runs on Tom's seven acres with a pond.

Below and to the right are new pictures of Cedar's dark red Mustang. He is up to 40 pounds in these pictures and just at 5 months of age. He is quite the hunter after rabbits and, as you can see, he has grown enough to be an even match for Tiger.

Thule is 5 months old in this picture and is retrieving her ball back to Jan. Thule is up to 32 pounds and is very friendly with the people and other animals at the veterinary office where Jan works.

Thule has also discovered water, and according to Jan, loves it just as her mother and grandmother do.

Besides posing for pictures, playing with frisbees and watching over nursery school children, Lelo appears to be learning to wash her hands! I can see there is never a dull moment for Lelo! She is also quite the studious one. Thanks for these fun pictures, Bev!

Cali has also become the perfect poodle model! Fashion is her specialty! Gorgeous! You go girl! (Thanks, Kathryn, for these awsome shots!)

Lelo earns her Canine Good Citizenship Certificate at just 7 months of age. Congratulations, Bev and Lelo!

Kaylee lives in my home town and I stopped out to see her on my last visit. She is the same size as her mother and still growing with such a sweet and friendly disposition.

Jan sent an update on Thule's progress and wrote, "Thule graduated from intermediate level obedience class with top grades. She was perfect in all the exercises. She lost two points for being rambunctious! I have attached her graduation picture. She was not real cooperative about the graduation cap. Everyone loves Thule, she is so loving and so smart. I get the nicest compliments where ever I go with her. She is a wonderful part of my life. I am so glad I have her." Thanks, Jan, for that wonderful update.

Lelo at the park and playing princess! She is 8 months old in these pictures. Bev seems to be having lots of fun with her. Thanks, Bev.
