Post by: Gardengirl on February 12, 2004, 12:14:47

Have been browsing through my photo albums and thought you might like to see a couple of photos of Busby's litter

Unfortunately Aqui they are all four years old now - I couldn't say which one Busby is - only that he is one of the black ones.  I love the little liver one, that was a little girl who as you can see wanted to pinch the other's food and lie on top of mum :-*

We are in Hertfordshire and had to travel to Gloucestershire to pick Busby up.  He was one of the quiet ones then - not so now - completely mad :D

Pat they are just gorgeous.  They remind me of Buffy's litter of 10.  She had 4 black and 6 golden one of which we kept.  All gone now except Beauty. Mum and Dad's dog and she has just had her 13th Birthday.  We had to hand rear all 10(well she did have 11 but one died the first night)right from birth.  What a marathon job that was.  2 hourly around the clock with a dropper.  Must dig out some piccys.

we have had a few litters over the years, -10 Belgian Shepherds, 9 lurchers, 8 greyhounds...and a partridge in a pear tree.......but I have found that after 2 or 3 months of puppy care, i never want to keep one of the pups! Perhaps because mine all seem to give birth in January........trudging down to garden shed at 6 in morning with lactol and oats and honey - greyhounds are rubbish mothers, especially once teeth and claws arrive - before the neighbours complain about the piteous wailing. And the clearing up - we could have kept Jeyes Fluid in business, not to mention bales of straw - good compost tho'.
suzy
