Yakira on puppy truck day

Yakira has had a cough since we got her last week and it seemed to be getting worse and then she added a snotty nose to the mix. So today I took her to the vet to make sure that she was alright. Everything is fine. She just has a bit of a puppy cold. It might be a reaction to the Bortatella vaccine she got a couple of weeks ago. She was a very good girl at the vet and asked if she was always this calm. Our pups get such a good start with the puppy socializers that it really shows up. How many 2 month old puppies can be examined so easily by a vet they have never seen before. Our little miniature  girl was 15.6 lbs. Yakira also got lots of comments on how cute she was, of course.

Thanks to Karen and her connections with breeding we were able to confirm today that Yakira really is a foreign girl. Besides her mom, Anjou, coming from Holland, her dad Pike is actually on loan from Queensland, Australia for 6 months. Now we know why she has such a unique barking style. She just has an accent.
