Animal Crackers - Lots of Puppy Photos... and a Moving Donkey Video!

Hi and Happy Saturday - Sorry I am a bit late this morning. I again had trouble getting the video downloaded from my phone. Why do I forget how to do that each time? I complicate it so much it is really crazy.

Now you are just going to have to be patient with me for the next few weeks... as I have gone nuts with Puppy photos :0) So you will be seeing lots of them probably until they all have new homes. Speaking of that.. Dude is already sold! I think it is going to be a wonderful home for him... and he will have a little girlfriend to play with there. :0)  Ok - so first Puppy Photos.. then I took a GREAT video for you last night! I think you are going to love the little run that Raffie's pen took....
Let me tell you ... having kids around is just so exhausting!! Even for Dad!! He is so cute around the puppies, he will go into their pen and just stare at them, he has even started cleaning on them. They are just now starting to climb on him... can't wait to get a photo of that :0)
Little Dude's favorite position for sleeping, here he is leaning against Mom... but if she isn't there he will get up and move next to one of his sisters and then flip over on his back... darn he is cute! His name will be Reno we are told... so from here on we will start referring to him as that.. might as well learn his name now right?

He is a cutie isn't he?
Chica... the little one - she is just so calm and sweet!
But she finds photo shoots just plain boring...
 Then again.. Mini Lib was not impressed either ....
Mini Lib is really a stunning color. We don't know what her final "Blue Merle" color will end up, but wow.. she has some gorgeous fur! And giggle giggle... she has blue eyes!!! We are leaning that the tri's are brown eyes... 90% sure... But Mini Lib.. she has blue!
Too cute to not show you... Mom and her Mini girl... You can see here how different Mini Lib's coloring is. Now it will darken as she gets older, but she seems to have more copper on her face than her Mom.

Now how about some Donkeys??? This is Raffie's pen... I ran out to video the three little ones trotting and playing... by the time I got through the backyard gate and to their pen... EVERYONE was running, bucking and yes even talking!! Donkeys screaming and hee hawing.. and in the background you can hear the goats - they didn't care about me getting this video - they wanted dinner... NOW.  ( if you want to try and see the video larger... click the button on the bottom right corner - it does get a bit fuzzy.. but not to bad)

I am sorry I have been consumed with the puppies... and not taking lots of Donkey and Goat photo for you... I just can't help it :0) Hopefully the video made up for the lack of photos.

Have a wonderful weekend - and those in the US - have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday... lots of family, friends and Turkey and pie! ;0)

HUGS and-

Those puppies get cuter by the week!! It's going to be very interesting to see Mini Libbie's final colour, it's so unusual already. I LOVE the video, so great to see the donkeys running around & shouting. Have a great weekend.

The puppies are adorable and very cute. I am totally in love with these little ones. Watching the video gave some home problems, the video was nice but the noise of the donkeys made my little one (German shepherd of one year) almost jump on my lap and she was barking all the time the video ran.
Can't wait till next animal crackers. Give all those cuties a big hug. Love from Holland, Helen

Cheryl said...

Thank you for sharing the pics! Too cute!


Did you happen to see the donkey pics in the photo contest on Pioneer Womans (Ree Drummond's) blog?

Cheryl said...

Sorry, got distracted by my DD and hit "publish" too soon.

Any how, she hosts periodic photography contest and there was at least one but I think 2 wonderful donkey photos in the last contest.

Puppies get cuter all the time, no wonder you're "consumed" with them! Thanks for the video it was fun to see 'em having a good time. Happy Thanksgiving!
