Up close and personal....

the brown boy

 

 

the larger black girl who has less white....

smaller girl, more white

 

7 days old. Have doubled their birth weights, and are feeding really well. One of the girls is the biggest in the litter, and will be a bit of a bruiser, the other girl is going to be lighter and more lady-like.... Obviously the incredibly handsome boy will be a showstopper!

 

New family doing well. Mum recovering from her caesarian speedily and with gusto. Already slipping out with James and Treacle for a run around the farm when the babes are quiet. With only three young 'uns she has milk a-plenty and they are like little, fat seals. James has not, so far, been permitted to approach the inner sanctum of the whelping box, but he is guarding it well from marauders.

a son and two daughters

THis morning 12.11.12 at 7.30am to Fudge, three puppies, two black girls and a chocolate boy. James delighted father. By emergency casesarian section, so bit fragile this afternoon, fingers crossed for swift and comfortable recovery. Pups feeding well.

48 hours prior to delivery the youngest son of the house came home. My, my, my. The girls were pleased to see him.
