Our babies are now 2 weeks old and growing very fast. It in a lot of ways has been a roller coaster 2 weeks. We lost 2 of our little girls which absolutely devastated us. Little girl 4 she was a pretty red whom we nicknamed Blossom died on 28/05/2010 due to having a cleft palette. We tried everything that we could but unfortunately there was nothing we could do. Our vet Matt was wonderful and caring and as he explained to us this can be quite common for any pup and it was just unfortunate that it had to happen to 1 of our litter.

Pup 2 whom was a lovely little black girl whom we named Wiggles developed a twisted bowel and because of her tender age and size she was not able to be operated on to correct this problem. Again we tried everything but it was just not meant to be. Little Wiggles died on 07/06/2010 laying cuddled into her mummy Bela with Bela's legs craddling her.

As you can imagine the babies that we still have are even more precious to us now and we are on 24 hour watch making sure nothing else can go wrong with our darling children.

We have nicknamed our 4 little bundles of joy as follows Pup 1 black boy "Arnie" He thinks he is a weight lifter, Pup 2 Red girl "Faith" she is very special to us cause we thought we were going to loose her but she fought back, Pup 3 black girl "Bertha" she is the biggest and just keeps getting fatter and fatter, Pup 4 Red boy "Bluey" his colour is such a beautiful red and he likes to already push his siblings around in a very cute way.
