Weigh In Video
Friday, November 30th, 2007Merged the photo’s below into a small video, enjoy!
Puppies are now 1 week old, so today we have given them a weekly health check along with a weigh in to see how they are growing.
As you can see all puppies are growing fast and on a steady increase. We are very pleased with the weights as there is normally a weight drop from at least one puppy in the first couple of weeks.
Mum and her pups are doing great! We’ve put together a short video so you can see how they’re getting along!
All puppies are growing fast and squeaking well. We will be doing a weekly weigh in to see who ate all the pies! (In this case drinking all the milk.)
Amber is such a fantastic mum never strays to far from her young and looks so well after giving birth to 8 puppies, she is very content and extremely patient.
Puppies are handled daily by ourselves and our “hands on” children.
Watch this space for new video footage.

Fallowfen Foxy Madam (Amber) is due puppies on 24/11/07, although very restless and bursting at the seams, they may arrive early. Amber is a very laid back and loving toller, not only a fantastic family companion but also a good working gundog and achieved awards in the show ring. Father to be is POL JNR CH Ale Rudy Fallowfen Lis Retrover (Rudy). He has already sired 2 litters since being imported from Poland but this would be our first litter by him so we are very excited to see what he produces.
