NEW PUPPIES!! TuckerxLibby Pups Jan 31/12

We are getting a new pup! A breeder friend of mine Jennifer Remazik, who breeds Alaskan Malamutes at http://www.spiritrunmals.com/  (which are dog sled dogs) and also shows and races her dogs, had a new litter and I made the mistake of showing the pictures of the pups to my daughters and Joanne! Well Joanne and i are on board about not having another dog after Amber our beagle died last May, but the girls and specially Victoria went nuts about getting one of these dogs! So Joanne and I gave in on the condition they pay for the dog, plus buy the food and care for the dog, specially walking the dog every day, as these dogs need lots of outdoor running a there are bread as a working dog whether it is pulling sleds or hiking trails carrying back packs etc. The are a magnificent dog and very strong and intelligent and need to be well trained.

So as it stands, this will be Victoria's dog, which Melissa will finance until Victoria pay her back, Ahem! lol...... but the dog will still be the family dog as Victoria and all my kids for that matter still live at home.

The girls will be going up to the breeder, Jennifer at  http://www.spiritrunmals.com/  weekly to check on the pups as we won't be able to bring one home until they are fully weened and they learn a little socializing from the mother dog, as well as the Jennifers other dogs to teach the pups how to behave with no biting and intermingle etc.

There are 6 pups in this litter 3 males and 3 females, and we will be getting one of the females, but not until  Jennifer decides on her choice of keeping any of the dogs, so we can't pick ours yet for a few more weeks and we won't be able to take our pup home till the first week of April at the latest, hopefully sooner.

Pups after about a week
