Congrats! Wow, 11 puppies…. How much do they have to grow before you know how many medios and/or grandes you have?

Well the Grandfather is wire - the unknown is Hanna's father who may have wire behind him but was not a wire himself - Wire is not dominant so the only way to get a wire is if both parents are wire - or both carry wire. (like the B tri-color coat)
Little early to say - the first sign could be some wiskering but likly not until they are a bit older.
We do have the middle size in wire in the US and that population is growing as well the last litter had only 3 - so hanna's numbers really were a bump up.

I just uploaded some new pics of the Podengo babies on my basenji/podengo home page
http://mijokrbasenjis.homestead.com/podengo-puppies.html
I did a couple of comparisons of the 2 girls - heads and leg so you can see that one is - at this point - more refined than the other.

I just looked at the pics..and they are adorable. Seeing that one of the girls look a little bigger already, do you think she might be a grande? Either way, wow, lots of work for Hanna..and y'all.

Since no one in Portugal has ever documented what size a litter grew to be - hard to say - at this point - I 'think' that of the 11 2 or 3 'might' be medio's I think that the rest are pretty 'grande'.

I'll have to show that to my daughter-in-law who is feeling sleep deprived with a new baby. Things could be worse; she could have 10 more to nurse!!! The pups are beautiful.
