Litter planned for Fall 09 (I hope)

He's gorgeous

I'm really not sure at this point which one I will keep. Scott wants to come up in about six weeks to see them, and Sue may keep one, and me. I do have one buyer that I kept and they'll be thrilled with anything, and they seem to be easy to work with if I want to show him and keep him intact. So any one of them is a possibility.

@nomrbddgs:

I just think the ones with less white look 'cleaner' somehow.
Here's the pic of the tri boy by himself. You can see how the collar tapers off.

I agree… so again noted that I prefer less white then more flashy white...

[nomrbddgs]

here is the black boy. The white should close up nicely on his head leaving the muzzle with little white, a small collar and not much white on his legs. What do you think?

I agree Arlene, that white on the face will be around his muzzle and a spot on the head, the line inbetween will most likely totally close. And yes, a very small white collar. Funny however is that the legs stay pretty much the same (at least I have found that). Example would be what I call "mitten" feet where the white is only on the foot, seems that it stays that way as adults, still just around the foot, it doesn't get smaller making more of the foot the regular coat color

links for videos (really short-30 sec each)

Goodness they sure are active! Mine are still spending most of their time sleeping.

The one (I don't know which one) seemed like he was yodelling this noon hour. I don't know if it's possible, but I was sure laughing. These guys are totally active. Screaming, whining, moving. A few of them are even up on their feet. Ugh, I'll be getting out the x-pen this week.

[Basenjimamma]

oh my goodness are they cute..I can smell the puppy breath and fritos feet all the way over here..

[thunderbird8588]

They're gorgeous Arlene

I like his markings, they'll probably be nicely subtle. I think lvoss posted some earlier, but for some more comparison, Zoni's markings at roughly the same age were

and they ended up like this

She's more on the flashy side though. You can't even tell that the stripe connects from her head to her neck when her ears are up, the wrinkles hide it.

Congrats, again! I can't wait to see your pups grow up. I love black & whites. I can't wait to get another some day.

Anyone have any ideas for 'theme' names? Both call and reg'd. I don't have a clue at this point. Maybe something like - the dark side? planets? black holes? LOL

[Janneke]

Four boys in tuxedos…. maybe famous opera singers?

Four boys=Lister, Rimmer, Kryten and Cat (from british sitcom Red Dwarf) :D.

Twilight and vampires in general seem to be a big thing right now - you could do something along that line.

For those of us that are as old dirt - anyone remember Dark Shadows? (Remember Barnabas? :D)

[lvoss]

If you go with a vampire theme here are a few.

Dogo Habari The Lost Boy - "David"
Dogo Habari Vampire With A Soul - "Angel"
Dogo Habari Half Vampire - "Blade"
Dogo Habari Forever Knight - "Nick"
Dogo Habari Twilight - "Edward"
Dogo Habari Moonlight - "Mick"
Dogo Habari Dark Shadows - "Barnabus"

[YodelDogs]

ROFL at the Red Dwarf references! I love Red Dwarf too.
