WOW TODD , Aero's dark chocolate color is absolutely stunning!! for a moment i thought she was black adn then realized it was one of deepest brown's
i've ever seen. I love it!! and i am sure you do too. IN fact i love the last pic of all 3 of them on the couch AND it shows the color variation really well between them.
I totally AGREE the temperment and rearing a DAM (aka mom) does with her puppies is critical to their development.
I think ONLY 1 time in my life did i see a litter and the mom where i went and walked out sitting in my car waiting for my family
and EX to follow as the Woman who bred a certain pedigree did a poor job of selection of breeding parents thinking the AKC papers
stood alone as proof to breed. Uh, hello? hahhaaaaa sorry but so much more goes into breeding and then how the MOM is teaching
her pups.
JAC that is wonderful to hear how the males are great with the puppies!! Says alot about your dogs
From what i observe 7 to 10wks is a critical stage of how a mom is with her pups AND then it's up to the new parents of puppy to
continue the training and love. Part of me wishes all puppies weren't able to leave a litter before 9 to 10wks old but then again
there is nothing wrong at 8wks old, just that people need to realize they have a baby and will lose sleep and do tons of potty walks, etc
and how they react is also crictal in puppies development.
So Todd.....how OLD is Aero now? i forgot
