We still think of the Fire Litter as puppies, but truth be told.. they are not! Olivia and Nacho’s eleven puppies graduate to the SP Kennel Yearling Class this week.

We took photographs of the kids earlier this week. Out of the 556 pictures we took, we hope that we got 11 good ones! We’ll let you decide.

  • Wow
    They have all grown into such beautiful confident looking young adults!
    What a gorgeous team of yearlings.

    Fantastic Pics!

  • Wow! They have grown up into beatiful young dogs. Happy Birthday!

  • OMG they are gorgeous!! A perfect combo of Olivia and Nacho!! I can't wait to see them working in harness this year!! How time flies….before ya know it they are all grown up and heading down the race trail! Happy Birthday Fire Litter!!

  • Happy Birthday fire pups! All of them are gorgeous, but I admit my partiality towards the blue eyed ones. What's most interesting is to see how many had their ears pop up, although Hotshot's and Violet's ears look like they actually go more "floppy". Thanks for the yearling update.

  • OMG!!! How big those pups are!!! They were beautiful at 3 months, and still beautiful, healthy and spunky at a year old!!!
    Awesome, Thanks for the post!!!

  • Interesting that the pups who look more like Olivia got her blue eyes. None of the more Nacho-looking pups got blue eyes. Wonder how those marking/eye color genes are associated. Doesn't really matter they're all gorgeous.

  • Happy Birthday fire litter! They are beautiful as adults and still have the individual markings they had as pups.

  • Happy Birthday, FIRE Litter!!!

    And thanks so much for these lovely records for their beginning, middle and ultimate portraits…as they progress to the "Yearling" status and begin their racing careers!!!

    Sincerely,

    Margaret
