  • oh, thanks Lisa.

  • SOOOO….. ANYWAY.... :)

    Robyn, can we see new pictures please? What are their personalities like? Is momma still as protective? Can dad still sneak in to see his babies? :) How are they all doing?

    The pups are almost 5 weeks old now and Bindi shows no concern about Baron being around them. Bindi's yearling sons, Spot and Rainie, are too rambunctous to be around the pups while they are this small. A few days ago, I had forgotten to put up the x-pen baracade. The boys bolted past me when I brought them inside and they ran to the puppy pen. The door was open and Rainie hopped in while Spot looked in curiously. Bindi was watching them intently but didn't get too upset. I got the boys crated before they squashed the pups. I do not allow the other two girls near the puppy pen unless Bindi is outside. Both love babies and are very gentle with them.

    The pups are developing slower than normal which leads me to believe they were born a few days premature. (They are 3-5 days behind where they should be.) They still sleep most of the time and the length of time that they are animated is brief so personalities are not apparent yet. I can see some things but they will go through many changes in the next 2-3 weeks so what they do right now may or may not be who they will end up being.

    I uploaded photos of week 3 and week 4. The pictures are not very good though.

    It's 3 am so I'm sorry for misspelled words and poor punctuation.

  • Thank you Robyn! I didn't mean to add to your busy day… but they are SO adorable! I love the video of puppy 1, where she is contently falling asleep in the middle of play time! (That reminds me of my husband, who will fall asleep if he sits down after 8 pm, no matter where he is! :))

    Let Bindi know she did good! Has she recovered all right?

  • awww… that video is too adorable.

  • Robyn, the videos are sooo cute. Yes, they are behind mine, which are 1 day older than yours, but it must be because Bindi had them early. Sugar just baked hers too long trying to keep up with Big Sis. I'm sure one of these days Sugar and Bindi will have pups on the same day. We just keep getting closer and closer!

  • The "on switch" has been activated. My "sleepy angels" have turned into….....puppies. :eek:

    Stacked photos and one video are located here.

  • What a great way to start the new day :) They are just beautiful and too cute!

  • So cute..thank you for sharing your bundles of joy.

  • Very nice Robyn. They are looking good. They look so much bigger than mine! And they stack so nicely too!

  • Looking good Robyn

  • They are all too cute. I love the side wrinkle on Patch. I hope he keeps it!

    The public database does not list breeder but Sally does track breeders in her personal database.

    Seems like the DNA sample would be easier to get too. :rolleyes: I guess the advantage of the sperm count is that you at least know if the sire is fertile or not. Good luck, can't wait to see pictures of the pups to be.

    Hope you have a good trip and he is all you are looking for AND passes all health-testing with flying colors! The spring puppies we are having in the next month [both litters no less!] were the ones we'd planned for Fall 2009. So I moved up my 2010 breedings to Fall 2009… now the girls all need to cooperate with my plans!

    Thanks Andrea and Robyn, That was helpful. Zoni isn't horribly mouthy but I definitely have some more work to do with her. I carry a nylabone in my pocket for the occasion.
