The Alice in Wonderland litter has arrived!
By Jennifer Stoeckl, MAT - Dire Wolf Project CEO, March 24, 2025
This weekend, we welcomed the Alice in Wonderland litter, born to Dublin and Yeti.
Every litter’s arrival is a unique journey, and this one was no exception.
Though Yeti carried three strong puppies, nature had its own course to run, and only one pup made it safely earthside.
All three puppies faced complications during the birthing process, and despite our best efforts, two were unable to stay with us.
While moments like these are never easy, they remind us of the delicate balance of life and the incredible strength of the mothers who bring these pups into the world.
Yeti, a singleton herself, now has a singleton daughter—one strong, resilient little girl who is already proving that she has inherited her mother’s spirit.
Though this litter did not unfold as we had hoped, we remain grateful for the precious life that did make it.
This little pup carries the legacy of her siblings forward, and we are excited to watch her grow into the magnificent American Dirus dog she is destined to be.
Thank you, as always, for being part of this journey with us. Your support and encouragement mean the world to our pack.

MOVIE MONDAY
This week let’s find out how the Cherry Blossom litter (and cousin Paul Revere) are doing on their lessons to becoming well-adjusted, confident companion dogs.
As we learn to raise confident puppies, our young tail-wagging friends solve new problem-solving challenges.
P.S. If you missed last Monday’s video (because I forgot to link it in the email) DOH!, you might want to check it out, too. It was all about how to build trust with 4-week-old puppies.
