Puppies!

Cosmo and Felon's pups are now almost 5 weeks old, so I finally thought it time to announce their names!

The theme I chose for my first litter of puppies was one that honored my family's business back in California that has all to do with WINE!

HelwigWinery.com ... check it out (yes, shameless plug)


Now I decided not to go with the obvious; so no, my pups are not named Zin, Merlot, or Syrah. These are all extremely cute names, but I wanted to go with something more original and unique (and to show off how 'wine sophisticated' I am ... HA! I'm totally kidding)

The theme of my incredibly awesome and adorable litter is: Cooperages, aka wine barrel makers.

Fun Fact for your day: a 'cooper' is a person who makes or repairs wooden casks or barrels.


I picked out the names awhile ago, but since Cosmo's genes are pretty strong and all 6 are a spitting image of her it took until now before the pups actually started growing into their unique looks and markings.

So without further ado, here are my named puppies! (with proper pronunciation where needed)
