The Old Man from Ukraine

It’s always interesting watching a puppy be chosen and meet their family. It’s actually pretty magical and one of our favorite blessings of breeding. As breeders, we try to fit each puppy with the special home that is right for them. Pick up day makes all our hard work worth it! We care tenderly for this puppy, socializing it, loving it, and meetings its physical needs. Then the family especially chosen comes to meet their precious new member of the family. Let’s just say, there are usually tears more than not. The day is full of so much love. Our Bluebell families are so excited, grateful, and touched by their new little pup. We are asked,
​

“Is it hard to let go of the puppy when it’s time?”

​
​It can be a little, but the joy we bring to our families makes it so worth it.

As many of you know, we took in a litter of puppies from an Ukrainian Breeder we personally know to raise money for the relocation of his family. As last little pup was waiting for a home, we wondered why he hadn’t been chosen yet. He checked all the boxes: he was calm, obedient, house trained, crate trained, cute as a button….. We lovingly called him “Old Man”, because he had so many fat wrinkles, he was wise, calm, and learned very quickly. Let’s just say he is an old soul. He had dug an absolute hole into our hearts.
​
This is when we lean on our faith. God had the right family for him that He was preparing. In the meantime, this boy was feeding our souls. I’m excited to announce that he finally found his forever home with the perfect owner who adores him, but this “Old Man” was definitely hard to let go.
