Naming some of TG puppies
The puppies are growing well and I have decided to name a couple of them. Mackenna is the saluki/husky mom with a single girl pup who looks just like her. So I named her Anna - Mackenna and BabyAnna!!
Baby Anna - sturdy, strong, cuddly little girl!
Then I noticed that the black puppy has white toes on all her feet just like little ballet shoes. Welcome Margo after Margo Fonteyn.
Just the toes are white spots!
See the little white toes on her back foot? She is still looking for her own family.
This is Cynda’s family puppy!
They know how to get up on the rollaway cot!
And I am thinking of Belinda for this little girl - she is quite a talker!!
Here is Belinda with Poncho - one of the saluki mixes!! They still need families of their own too.
And the last unspoken for pup is the mini-malamute who will look very much like Robbie!
He is well over twice the size of his sisters.
This is Auntie Sophie - our coyote mix who has "mothered" every litter that arrives here!! She will be 18 years old in December. Sweetpea still sleeps with her once in awhile. She was one of Sophie’s special ones too. Little Belinda is cuddled next to her Auntie Sophie. Sophie will call them to her and plays with them, cleans them and babysits them so the mothers can take time away from their litters. With motherless pups - she will stay with them and care for them until they are adopted.

Hi Yvette,
Loved the photos! Robbie look-alike is absolutely so handsome!
We’ve decided to name our puppy “Teya’, pronounced ‘Tay-ya” so maybe
she can start learning her name….do you think Nala’s pups had multiple
sires? They look so different.

How about the name Wyatt for the little huskey boy. The meaning is war strength and since he is so much bigger then his siblings he most likely is of strong character..he is adorable and the name just hit me for him…

Hi Yvette,
I have not stopped by in the last month but we are still looking for a pup to join our family. My Name is Chrisann Boucher and my Husband is Layne and we have dropped in 3 times in the fall to find the right fit for our family - but unfortuneately there were no pups or the dogs that loved us were spoken for. We have 3 small children and have Molly a 2-time turtle garden loser that was known to be very aggressive and a fear biter from Burns Lake. She has been part of our family for more than 5yrs now and has adapted to each of our children with only a few growls and 1 bite about 4 yrs ago - she still feels bad. She is 10 yrs old and is ready to train a new recruit while she still has the energy. Molly and the new pup will continue to enjoy high quality dogfood, a nice warm bed in the house, a large fenced yard, walks with the kids and daily trips in the woods from spring to fall while we operate our forestry business. Winter time is a time for pats and reflection by a warm fire and time to put on a few pounds from turkey and gravy like the rest of the family. Can you let me know if any of the pups are still available and I will be happy to come in this week. Chrisann.

Chrisann, can I come and live with you and your family? Sounds like heaven for one of these puppies. Anna is so gorgeous. Imagine from her beginnings to a home like Chrisann’s if she is the one they choose. For those who don’t know, Anna is the little pup that was only a couple of days old when rescued along with the 40+ others.
Poncho looks very relaxed — a different dog than when he was taken in. Good work TG! Wyatt or Yukon sound like great names. Flip a coin Yvette?

Well is Yukon gets picked for this guy then keep the name Wyatt aside for another unnamed whom it may suit. And Vise Versa..works for me..
Chrisann I am sure you will find a wonderful match to your family..sounds like a perfect home…I wish you luck..
