Gold @Excuseme Pregnancy Diary

[Violet Turner]

The birds and the bees, Violet It's possible to keep both entire males and bitches in season, but it's hard work and stressful for all concerned.

But its not that hard ...

Been there, done that, and NEVER again!!

Plus even if excuseme neutered the boy at the appropriate age, neutered males can still tie with females and do themselves a nasty injury, so every time a bitch was in heat the house would have to be on lockdown. I know someone who had boy & girl unneutered chis and the boy would whine for pretty much the duration of the season. Not fun.

The girls are; 3rd picture down, and the puppy below the food tray, other one is puppy on RHS next to the railing with brown nose.

Is brown nose the one that is getting into the foreground of the other pictures too, or is that a brown nosed boy?

 

[excuseme]

I have to look so carefully myself, it is the girl

 

[excuseme]

The puppies have found another friend! "Sprinkle"

 

[Violet Turner]

I only asked a question @excuseme so i would have preferred a respectable reply.

 

[JoanneF]

She looks quite bold, if it is possible to tell at all from a photo

@excuseme will you be doing a puppy diary?
The pink nosed one is adorable

Hello @excuseme - How are the puppies getting on? Have you chosen your girl yet? and found homes for the others?

I'm getting photo withdrawals!

Hi Josie,
The puppies are doing just so very well. they are eating about 3lbs of raw meats, which includes chicken wings or carcasses, each day, and a little of Millies Wolfheart for "top up" when required. They also enjoy the Natures Menu "Mighty Mixer" (another change of texture).
Both, no in fact all of the puppies are lovely ! but the girl with the most appeal is the solid golden with a brown nose. This is the one that my husband has chosen. When she is old enough she will join her mum and granny on our shooting days in the beating line. ( that will be 2 years away ).
I am waiting for some nice weather and a good sunny day to get some pictures, (I have not forgotten you).
We have sensible mature type homes for the 3 boys and loads of people wanting a girl !! It is difficult deciding who is genuine and who is not!! It is so difficult!!!!!!

I bet it’s a really tough decision.

 

[Violet Turner]

I have managed to get some pictures today (saturday) without any rain!!

I took 40 pictures, some I had to delete! others I have resized for posting.

 

[Violet Turner]

They are so cute!! Are you keeping the pink nosed one?

 

[Sezzy]

They are absolutely adorable

 

[Josie]

Love them!

So cute!!

Are they docked because they're working cockers? Knowing how much spaniels wag their tails and scrabble through undergrowth, I guess it makes sense.
