Puppies......November 12,2010

Our dog, Trudy, had 9 puppies! 6 boys, 3 girls. They turned out really nice. The breeders actually did invitro with her. She has a really hard time getting pregnant. I was surprised it worked this time because her last cycle she didn't catch.

We actually don't own Trudy anymore. We farmed her out so she could have a better home. Our home is not big enough to care for her like she needs to be cared for. We are sad these puppies aren't ours because we would've made a killing on them and they are "top dogs", no pun intended. They are top breed, really. The male with whom Trudy was bred to is the son of the Grand Champion of Bull Dogs. Our breeders turn down female dogs all the time to him. The female has to be just as nice as him and TRUDY IS! Yeah! (I know it sounds cheesy :)

Trudy is an amazing mom. Our breeders are very impressed with how well she does with her puppies. Most female bull dogs are not great mothers. We have always know how maternal she was by the way she treated our kids, especially Tage.

Anyhow, we went to see the puppies on the 14th, two days after they were born. Trudy looked good. But, she was SO SKINNY due to the pregnancy. Paizlie LOVED being with Trudy. Trudy let her pet and pet her. It was cute!

Just before we got there, one of the female puppies died. So, there are eight remaining. It was fun to see Trudy and the puppies. It will be more fun to see the puppies once they get a bit bigger.

We love and miss Trudy but, the truth is Trudy lives with an amazing family who loves her a lot. We are very happy about that. She is spoiled by her farming family. They really take great care of her and have a good home that provides all her needs.
