Half a pound. Each.

They are so tiny.

This is Saffy – she belongs to Madeleine.

She is quite outrageously cute.

And this is Darcy, who belongs to Ella.  Darcy has a little tuft of white hair on her forehead, which may or may not remain.  Otherwise, they’re a little hard to tell apart.

I mean, come on, this is just ridiculous.

We went to meet Juliann, the breeder, in a carpark just of the highway she comes in on.  I didn’t know how it was going to happen, but we were going to see three pups and the girls would choose which two they wanted.  Juliann opened the puppy carrying case on the back seat of her car and handed one to Madeleine, one to Ella and the third to PJ.  There was no discussion, it was all over immediately.  PJ gave the third one back (eventually!) and the girls didn’t let go of the pups they’d been given.

We get to bring them home with us on September 17th.  I’ll try really hard not to let this become a Puppy Blog but the first few weeks might be a little difficult.
