A Leaving
This is the really hard part of being a breeder.

I am sorry to share that Holden Squeaker from the H Moon Litter had to leave this earth and his beloved human.
Holden Squeaker arrived much like his granddaughter, Pozy Clarkia — lifeless. We did not give up on him that day and when he finally squeaked — we celebrated and cried and named him Squeaker.
Toby took over when he was eight weeks old, and a Great Love was ignited.
Those Great Loves carry with them the seeds of shattering and yet we love anyway because they are worth every tear, every ripping shard from the shattering.
Holden Squeaker was such a dog for Toby.
I celebrate that Holden was so very loved — even as I physically wince thinking about what his loss means to Toby. A gut punch followed by a series of sucker punches, landing with cruel efficiency.
A great dog has left us.
Great Love endures.
Playdate
Pozy, Sparkle, and I headed off to Lincoln, Montana. Fun Fact: Lincoln was the home of the Unabomber.
Unlike about 500 other people, we were not in Lincoln for a softball tournament. I could say a lot about THAT but I will spare you and get straight to the cute photos…
We met up with Chase (Larkspur) and his family — including Major, the father of the Wildflowers. Although the softball tournament was a wee bit terrifying and mind-blowing (understatement alert), it did mean there were children romping around and puppies are children-magnets.
Therefore, the puppies had an excellent socialization experience.
How cute is Chase?!
Chase and Pozy played and played — they clearly remembered each other. It was SO much fun to watch them.
And now Pozy and I are off for yet another adventure — this puppy socializing is a serious endeavor!
Have a Super Sunday!
