repeat mom "Freddie" had her litter of 7 born August 27th.
there were chocolates and tri colors ! This litter is mostly chunky monkey's
all are adopted now
Chocolate moma "Freddie's " owners came out a couple times to see her and the fatties she had for us !
they helped us spoil her and brought chicken we could cook up for her to help keep her milk flowing :)
as she nursed her big fatties !! we so appreciate them allowing her to return for one more litter of cuties for us
she runs to see them and then assumes the belly rub position...
you did good girl
there were only 2 tri colored girls in the litter:
the Wandlands from Kenly nc. claimed this pretty tri colored girl !
we let her spend time even before her eyes are fully open on the quilt they sent with their scents on it so
she starts to become familiar with her new owners even before she meets them ...
she starts to become familiar with her new owners even before she meets them ...
she sniffed around and finally curled up for a nice little nap ... we think times like this help in the bonding once they meet their new owners they already feel comfy and familiar... how cute her cow kinda looks like her :)
Freddie had 2 tri colored girls with blazes we just offered to a couple with a deposit down to join our waiting list from Hickory who requested this as a preference....they picked this standard girl with a wide blaze !!
one girl has a spot on her rump like her Granddaddy Thor this comes from the sires side of the bloodline.
she has a longer white tipped tail , and a spot on her rump.
"she has the spot on the rump that Granddad "Thor" had on his , he had a heart shape and was adopted by Christopher who had multiple heart surgeries growing up.
he was the perfect pet therapy inhouse doggie for him and he sired a litter for us with this litters dad in it
we adopted out to a family willing to let him sire litters for us this summer while they vacationed
he had fun tooooo !

We would love another Chocolate, open to any time frames really=) as I know you don’t have many litters,
but wanted to start the process, as we knew we definitely wanted to work with you & Sunshine Beagles for our next fur baby.

it was so neat to see how similar Bon bon looks to their 1st sunshine chocolate beagle Abbey.

Hi - hope everyone is well. These two absolutely love the snow and continue to adjust well. Both are getting big. Charlotte is very independent and is quite the jumper. No baby gate is a match for her. She’s a lot of fun and her personality is great.
Marshall is super snuggly and honestly has the best tail wag greeting ever. They’re both super playful and a great fit for our family.
we were happy to approve the pair for the Helpleys , they tell us they will be taking them to the office
where Mrs Helpley does marriage and family counseling . just as she did for her first boy and girl pair from us they got years ago. we love hearing that !

the daddy of the litter was such a handsome boy we made an agreement when he was adopted to get to have him sire a litter for us.. as it turned out his family boarded him with us over the summer and he got to be a daddy of 3 Litters !! He's since gone back home to his family in Penn. now and been fixed to be their housepet and family companion :)
Tri colored stud "Tucker" came to board with us this summer and was here when Freddie was ready...!!
after her 1st litter for us we skipped her next heat and found her a pet home with a repeat customer

we boarded for them last summer when they went to the beach, and we recently did again for them while they traveled to Hilton Head again this summer:)
they had adopted an older pup from us many years ago , he was kinda unusual for a beagle and was able to be let out the door to go on his own , he would just run down near their pond behind their home and occassionally do a lap around it and then come right back inside off leash...
since they didn't have a fence we taught Freddie to walk on a leash , and then let her off leash some while we walked at our pond...
she too was so good she would just come to us when called...
Freddie has a lot of white areas and a nice big
blaze between her eyes
and lots of her first litter did as well...

the white face on a beagle is super unusual , although Snoopy has one and black ears you really dont see it often . We looked for a local home for the above male Teddy to join and he is now grown and will be siring
