Keepsake Pomeranians
are all born in my
home in Texas, with hands on assistance at the
time of delivery, unless the services of a veterinarian are needed.
Puppies remain with their moms for the first few weeks. They are handled
briefly each day for weighing and a look over, just enough to help their
sensory experiences along a little. |
Litters are usually whelped in our family
room where the babies remain in a puppy pen with their mom for nearly
around the clock surveillance. When the puppies
are making their way around and beginning to explore, we remove the whelping box and
place a washable medical bed pad on the floor of the puppy pen and top
it with absorbent unprinted newspaper. Next we place bedding and toys in
with them as this will be home for the next several weeks.
Here they can romp, play and get accustomed to using the potty paper,
while hearing the noises of day to day life. * Or do nothing at all,
as these puppies are doing!
| Toddler's are free to run the family area or sewing /computer room once they are completely weaned. This is where their social development really gets a boost! Bigger beds and more toys! |

The playroom is adjacent to the kitchen area and allows us keep a keen ear and eye on the goings on of our little darlings.
Note: My husband has cut the legs of these beds down to an inch since this picture was taken. |

A Dutch door divides the girls room from the kitchen/family area. The upper 1/2 of the door is nearly always open. This is where the girls sleep at night. A doggie door is provided and is opened for daytime use in the Spring and early Fall. There is a separate 7' X 12' grooming room off of one end of the playroom complete with a bathing sink and professional sprayer. A powerful blow dryer sits on the left end of the grooming counter, with sprays and tools to the right. A mirror to check my work, completes this space. There's a window overlooking the Pom's yard from the grooming room. This allows me to enjoy watching them from every corner of my eye! Note: We are moving. This was our set up in East Texas. We will update photos once we get settled.

A doggie door leading from the playroom into a fenced play yard in the back, give the Poms freedom to come and go When we are extremely busy, they are secured inside and not permitted outdoors unsupervised. Note: We are moving. This was our yard in East Texas. We will update photos as we develop the new play yards. |
| We have a
clear view of the play yard from the French doors which lead from the
family areas to a covered patio. The little "peeping Tom" at the door is letting
me know there are girls inside!

All of the Poms get time directly underfoot and in our beds. First because we love them, but also because we want them to make good companions when the time comes to be adopted by a new family. We never like to say good bye to our little fur friends, but out of fairness to them, there comes a time when we must let go. A time to make way for a loving individual or family to offer them the pampering they deserve, while we turn our attentions to the newest arrivals. |
| On the
Fur Fun
page you'll find pictures of some of our Poms
simply enjoying life around here. We will add to that page and update as time
allows so check back often!
