Interesting enough Jeannie's largest one now has colours bleeding through. He's going to be a gorgeous tri.

I wanted to get more comparisons but they are not cooperating and just adds stress. Sorry. Kat is in crazy mode as Inula is in her height of heat. Listening to his nin stop barking when Dennis is supposed to be sleeping is fun - not. She has 2 more weeks of heat. Oh my.

Here is the gallery of my attempts at getting the, to stay still so I could click. Fay chance.

The size difference is amazing in the second photo! The little one looks more like a gerbil! lol

Yup, we got tubby chubbies there! Thanks for posting this, Darlah, the few days' difference and not having to share milk stations makes a huge difference!
Clarity and I were snuggling last night and We started talking about bringing home a puppy in a few weeks. We're getting sooooo excited!

At what age are the puppies old enough to be together? Is there a point where Jeanie's will slow down and Roxie's catch up?

Christine, I'm sooooooo jealous but very happy for you and Clarity.

Who are Clarity's parents?

The comparisons are precious but judging how quickly they grow, and the vigour in which Spice's and Roxie's puppies feed, I bet they will catch up soon. They are all so beautiful. I love their little faces. Beautiful Thanks for always finding time to post pictures, videos and blogs, Darlah. With everything on your plate, it is amazing that you find the tie to do all of this. We are so fortunate.

Clarity is a Panda baby.

April 30, 2016 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Clarity's parents are Panda and Kat. Yes, Clarity and I are so looking forward to bringing home her buddy! I had two doggies before and always intended to have two again. They are wonderful companions for each other, and so much fun for me. I love the relationships they build and watching them play and interact with each other.

We can put the puppies together at 4 weeks. 4 weeks they will start eating food so it will be easier to handle. We could do it when Roxies are 3 weeks but we will have to see how they interact and of course we will go insane separating them so each mother can feed. With 2 litters you take 1 litter out of the xpen and one remains in. With 3. Going to be interesting. I may have to create an xpen around my desk for a 3rd place. I am hoping moms don't care and will feed whomever comes up to the milk station but that's not always the case. It's going to be a ton of work but they are going to love having so many pals.

Spice and Roxie's are more active than Jeannie's pups. Jeannie's will get active when their eyes open up and they have things to do. Now they eat so much they roll off and sleep. That's always the case with the round ones but they slim out when they start walking.

April 30, 2016 | Registered CommenterDarlah

An interesting tidbit is Jeannie's have the luxury of little competition. Roxies and more so Spices do not have that so they have to learn to share. I suspect Jeannie's pups will have to adjust to being placed together more than the Roxie or Spice's crew but it will be good for them. All of this will mean a great boost to their development as we will place the effort in to make sure it all comes together - like usual.

The brown sable of Spice's will be a small gal. She will grow etc but she has dainty features. She will never surpass say Jersey cow gal who is the largest. The small sable is rather pretty. Very feminine looking.
