Getting bigger (well most are)

Things are nice and settled here at the moment and we are making the most of the chilled atmosphere, which will evaporate once the puppies are a couple of weeks older and start doing their 'great escape' routines.
I think Dollar got confused about different types of pups as hers look more like seal pups than puppies! Her litter are generally bigger than Audreys pups but one in particular, Big Bertha, is huge. The contrast is Audreys smallest pup, Tiny Tim. I had my doubts about whether or not he would survive but he has proved himself to be a little fighter. All he required was a bit of help to ensure some quality time at the milk bar, now he is a feisty little chap and is nearly always first for dinner.


I am expecting to see some eyes opening in the next couple of days. All the bitches from both litters were booked within 24hrs of being born. Most of the dog puppies are available so if you were wanting a beautiful pup from sound health tested parents reared in a real family environment please don't write these off purely because they are boys, in fact as a generalization male dogs tend to be more affectionate and hormonally stable.

Love Tiny Tim - wish we had a vacancy here for him!
Prospective owners also bear in mind dogs are cheaper to have neutered than bitches too:-))
All the pups are looking grand!

Lovely Jane they all look great. I prefer dogs every time. No hormones to deal with and very affectionate as you say.

Oh Jane, if only you knew how much I would like a little boy to add to our family!! Alas, I have to be sensible. Totally agree about the affection though, girls are more independent and less needy than boys!
