“D” Litter – Doc goes to Tulsa, Oklahoma!

Doc - Male Puppy - My kids called him Pupcakes!
Well this boy has quite a story. This pup was scheduled to fly out of Newark, NJ and get a connecting flight in Houston, TX and then take a jet to Tulsa, OK. We’ll it didn’t quite work out as easily as we had hoped, but he did make it safe and sound and with gusto. Doc, the pup pictured above, missed his flight due to nasty weather conditions after he was scheduled to be on time. We didn’t know this at the time since the aiport told us everything was on time. His flight was delayed and unfortunately he didn’t make it to Houston in time to catch his connecting flight to make it to his new owners in Oklahoma. Needless to say, we were frantic and scared for our little pup. Doc had to spend 24 hours at the kennel in Houston Airport! We were so afraid he would get sick or have problems because we knew he only had one set of vaccinations and could be exposed to all kinds of things. Our hearts just dropped thinking about it.
We finally did get through to the kennel at Houston to speak with a pleasant gal there who was caring for Doc. She said she never saw a young pup at that age come running out of a crate so fast to jump on her and give her kisses like this dog. She said he sure was a fiesty boy! He was kenneled there next to a 4 month old GSD, so nice for him to have a little friend next to him to keep him comforted.

That next night, Doc was again transported by jet to Oklahoma where he met his new family. Doc was overjoyed to see someone who was going to take him home and love him. The new owner contacted us right away and let us know he was safe and he just immediately bonded with this family. It was love at first sight!!!!!
Doc is doing great now in his new home and loving life on a cattle ranch in OK. We are thrilled to have him with such a loving family. He will have one of the fullest lives I could hope for one of my pups. He will be active on a ranch doing what these dogs were bred to do – work, herd, and be the loyalist of companions! We love you Doc and thank you Derrick and family for loving and making this pup a part of your life!
We expect to hear all about this pup in the future to see how he develops and what kind of potential he has out of this first time breeding with Arla and Hawk. Doc, as a young pup, showed us that wonderful genetic obedience we look for in a pup, that strong attraction to people, eye contact, and confidence! He also had an attraction to sheep – Yeah! More to come on Doc soon . . . .
Doc as just a wee babe!
