And tomorrow the first two will go to their new families. I know they are going to good homes, BUT THEY ARE MY BABIES!!! I was there for each of their births and have been there for them since. I feel like Mama too!! I don't want to say goodbye! I love them so much and like you cleaning up the poop and all the extra that went with it never bothered me. All that has ever bothered me is letting them go. I saw them born and watched them grow and I really want to continue watching my babies grow. I am keeping one, and the other 2 will leave friday afternoon. It is a sad time, but I do try to keep thinking that I have found good homes for them and that they will live long happy, healthy lives and be loved so much!!! I just want them to remember how much I love them and remeber me!! I am having a hard time tonight, My Molly girl gave birth to 5 very healthy puppies 7 weeks ago.

At our house it's not just limited to puppies. Every animal that leaves our little farm is sent off with a great deal of tears by my daughter. It's hardest for her to let go of the baby goats that she bottle fed. Yes, it’s hard to say goodbye. At our house it’s not just limited to puppies.

Her name was Shonda and she was a beautiful red Golden Retriever. She had four litters of puppies. I still remember the sights and smells. It was an experience I'll never forget. I loved being there for Shonda when she birthed the puppies and helping care for her and the sweet puppies. We even got to name them. Canine Companions gave us a letter of the alphabet, and we got to choose the puppies names. Let me tell you, finding 6-7 O, P and Q names is NOT easy! But after all that, we had to say goodbye to the dear little things. That was HARD. Even so, I wouldn't wish to not have the pain of farewell - there are too many good things I would have missed. --K. Hewett [posting a comment for the Trivium Pursuit contest]

You did a wonderful job with your website...but you simply could not have done a better job with the loving way you raised these puppies. It truly shows in the comments above, and our boy Shylo is the best puppy in the world! He is smart, extremely gentle with our 3 young boys, and a pleasure for all to be around. Thank you for everything! :-) Julie, Al, & the boys Ava,

They're so cute you can't help but become attached. It helps to know they are going to loving homes. Hang in there, the next litter will bring new joys. Yes, goodbye is the hardest!
