I'd love to see a photo of her - that link couldn't work because i'm not a memebr of that forum. Great name. I like indiginous names - my KC reg names have been mainly gaelic

Sorry bout that, didn't know it worked like that. Here are some pics of her on my twitter feed. You have to scroll down a little.

She's so sweet. Making me want one now.

If you hadn't named her already (eventually found out you had, scrolling through the thread), I was going to suggest "Alf" !! According to Radio 4 today, it is one of the most favorite dog names !!!!! And one could argue it is sort of trans-gender. Anyway, too late!

Rhosyn is much better.

In passing, went to see my ex's 4 week-old pups today: her doggy-mum and the 4 pups doing extremely well. Apparently, doggy-mum often dumps largest pup away from the others for a while, so it cannot compete with siblings when suckling, OR she takes smallest pup off to a corner and suckles it on its own away from the other three. What a brilliant mum!
However, there is a degree of confusion about whether they are 4 males or 4 females: they sort of look like males with very tufted/hairy "protrusion" on lower part of tummy, BUT we can't discern remnants of umbilical cord. Surely umbilical "scar" would still be very noticeable at 3-4 weeks? If so, then they are probably 4 females!

You (/she) needs to look out for which way the wee comes out

Update ref' posts #20/21: they were all boys and now one of them "Alee" is mine.

Alee not living with me (and my other dog, Keela) yet: he will be the hold-over pup, i.e. the last to leave his doggie mum & dad. But I reckon that will be OK.
He seems to be quite attached to "us" already; he shadows Keela whenever we visit his human carers and ...
"D, would you rescue me please - Alee has gone to sleep on my feet again, but I really need to be going".
Plus he will see his doggie mum & dad frequently, undoubtedly with resumption of their usual playful pack-mayhem.

Whatever gender one is/has, there is no defense for puppy cuteness! To round-off on prev' posts, here's the boy Alee: terror that he is, he's melted quite a few hearts already (inc. mine of course).

Just beautiful

Rhosyn is really big now, she is already rounding up the pet lambs by herself and takes great interest in the sheep/buffalo, although still needs training around them...
