    One thing that I have learned in life is to accept that things are not all black or all white. Life is shades of gray and just because someone sees a different shade of gray than you do, it doesn't mean their shade is right or wrong, its just different. ~ Robyn Dubbert

    They are very nice Robyn. But one question, why a pet home for the Tri girl? She looks nice in the pic-good topline, nice shelf, head not bad?

    @nomrbddgs:

    They are very nice Robyn. But one question, why a pet home for the Tri girl? She looks nice in the pic-good topline, nice shelf, head not bad?

    Actually her head is rather poor. It is slightly domed making her ear set low. She lacks a defined stop and the round eyes are distracting. That alone puts her in the pet only category.

    To be honest, this litter did not turn out as well as I had hoped for. Their temperament, personalities, and trainability is OUTSTANDING but structurally, some of them really fail.

    The best pup in the litter is the tri male. He stood out from early on and hasn't let me down. He is put together beautifully and never puts a foot wrong. Second best pup in the litter is the plain red girl. The plain red boy has a lot of very nice things about him too.

    I always linebreed so I typically get consistent litters. This breeding was a partial outcross so I expected more variety. What I didn't expect was certain flaws that cropped up. (The flashy red girl has me really scratching my head. :eek:) I brought in bad feet from using this sire and the pups have larger than usual umbilical hernias.

    I will say that these have been some of the most delightful puppies I have ever raised. They are so bright and eager to please. They are bold, athletic, and playful but they also adore visitors. Everyone who comes is greeted by the whole pack of puppies climbing on them. I could not be happier with their temperaments.

    Oooh, I see what you mean. I didn't look at the front facing pic. I had noticed the feet as well. But, you do have temperment, so at least that's one thing!

    The counter is the closest thing that is available in relation to their x-pen. With these little buggers it's hard enough working with one without having three more jumping around too!

    Yes, she's my favorite. She's so pretty… She may just grow up to be a spectacular bitch. I hope to see her pics as an adult.

    The pups really love that ramp. I put a cat sized tunnel in there with them but instead of going through it they played "king of the mountain" and all jumped on top of it lol. These are the bounciest puppies. They are like little kangaroos hopping all the time. It's cute until you are sitting on the floor with them and one of them tries to pierce your nose. Ouch!

    Also, as they are so cat like, folks don't understand their not "listening". So the corrections get harsher and harsher. Sigh. Education is the key for folks…until they do, we will have many dogs in the wrong homes.

    The following site has them at a reasonable price plus if you click on Color/Pattern choices at the bottom of the page, you can see exactly how to measure your girl to get the correct size: http://nu-nee.tripod.com/bb.htm Whatever you decide to use try to remember that the likelihood they last more than a day is low unless you are incredibly vigilant. Personally, I gave up on the panties. The bleeding was never very much & Ella kept herself incredibly clean so I rarely saw or had blood spots to clean up. The worst were my sheets (yes, my spoiled B sleeps under the covers at my feet). I tried keeping panties on her but by morning they were shredded as well as sanitary napkin bits everywhere. It was cheaper just to change my sheets daily.
