Hi all,

I have just been crazy busy with two litters to log on, but now that I'm having some R and R, I thought I'd update you on Alice. She had her litter very generously during the DAY (between lunch and dinner even!) on March 26th (so yes, they were four weeks old yesterday). All puppies were well over a pound except for one 10 oz girl, and she whelped them with ease. So very proud of her -- the bitches in my line are proving to be great whelpers and mothers, which makes things soo much easier! There were four boys and two girls, so an average sized litter for an IS, but since it was a fresh chilled TCI breeding, I'll take it! Their sire is now getting quite the reputation for throwing lots of boys, but they are gorgeous, so I can't wait to put these guys on the table.

I am now home recouping from the intense time we had with an April 1st emergency C section litter of another girl, who was ill and ended up not being able to care for her small and weak puppies (thankfully after a few days of tubing round the clock they were strong enough to be put on Alice - Mother of the Year!). I don't have a lot of recent photos. I do have this though, which is I think is just darling and my favorite, to whet your appetites until I can get more. They are three days old in this pic. When I get the energy, I will try to upload more photos.....can't believe they are already having non-Alice meals!



From left to right: black boy, blue boy, green boy, red boy, purple girl and pink girl.

Enjoy!

So precious!! Can't wait to see more pics of them! Congratulations on such a beautiful litter.

Beautiful pups!

Congratulations on beautiful puppies! I already have my eyes on green boy. He seems like the leader with everyone huddle around him. So gorgeous! Alice should be given the mother of the year! Can you give us the name of the sire?

Thank you everyone! I am going to try to get some photos today, or at least upload some.

The sire of the litter is Edward, Ch Lunn's Running With Scissors. It was a great linebreeding. You can see him on here, he is the second dog. His dam is the first one:

Some more photos.

This is the girl I have my eye on (photo is a lil old, but I like what it shows!):



From last night:

Black boy, love the white chest and big feet:



Feeding time around here is not pretty:



Hope you enjoy!

Sorry photos are so large, I'm pretty computer clueless.

BTW, black boy in the middle photo looks soooo much like Uncle Tristan! I'm excited to see how he turns out, but those are Tristan's eyes.

Congrats on your puppies!

Thank you! For those of you on Facebook, I have their first "just for fun" stacked pics (4.5 weeks) Here is the link if you want to take a peek. They had a busy day -- first photos, playing outside and haircuts! Totally konked out now!
