Title: Puppies!
Post by: warmglo on August 11, 2010, 02:38:03 pm
Hurray!! My Tricks has given birth to five bouncing babies! Four black & white, and one white & black. The last one looks like a dinky freisian cow, so might call her Daisy! Will try to upload pics soon...

Click reply as normal, below left is the blue words 'additional options', click on that, then click browse and you can scroll through to choose your photo, then click post.  But you need to resize photos to below 512kb - you can do that in the programme where you view your photos.  I save any I want to post with a different name so i don't lose the quality of the original.  I also save to my desktop so they are easy to find from the browse facility, then i can find them again to delete if I wish.

I mated my black/white with a red as i have wanted a red for so long but she had 6 black/white but we kept 1 of the pups and have been told the gene will be with her so fingers crossed.They just are so sweet.

Thank you all - its always so exciting!

Piggy red is a ressessive gene so unless you mate with another red in all probability you will always get b\w  :)

LOL! There's always someone/something to prove you wrong!! I always did love genetics - a surprise around every corner!

9 pups! at 5weeks old! I'd say congrats, but somehow all I feel is sympathy..... just kidding! Full house tho - well done!
Did you post pics? did I miss them??

Love mum and dad, the pups should turn out little stunners, I am sure I am not the only one on this forum that would end up with loads of dogs if I had the ti me, the money and the space!!!!

Yes, me too, we have a litter up north which I really should take a pup from but I have enough to cope with at the moment.  Maybe next year.............
