This one is a Black/White female I have begun calling "Little Bit". She is the smallest of the litter and is going to adopt new parents, Gene and Alice and Big Sister Buffy, as soon as they can come down from Indiana to get her...
This one is a little Chocolate/White female that I have already gotten attached to (just a little over 24 hours since she was born)... and have given her the name Hershey Kiss. (I am sure my Husband will never agree to keeping her, but I can always wish !!)
Well, it is official...we are keeping this cutie, and her name is JC's Little Hershey Kiss and we will call her Hershey ! Isn't she cute !!!
This Little one is a Black and White Male ...
This Little Black and White male looks a lot like his momma... and while he is so tiny at birth ... he grows fast !!
This fellow is a Chocolate/White male. He is by far the largest of the group. and so far is always "at the dinner table".
This cutie is another Chocolate/White male.
And finally, this sweetie is a Chocolate/White male, was born last and is the "cry-baby" of the bunch.
Now that our Human kids are grown, these are our "children". Molly, is a Black/White Parti Cocker Spaniel, born May 30, 2000. She chose us as parents when we went to "look" at puppies after having to make that hardest decision to send our 16 year old Blonde Cocker Spaniel, Brandi, to live at the Rainbow Bridge. Three months later, Molly's other "mom" called to say she had a beautiful "half-sister" of Molly that she wanted us to see. Well, as you all know, you NEVER go "look" at puppies. Amy, born September 11, 2000 wormed her way into our hearts and came home with us. In February, 2002 we bred Amy with a beautiful Chocolate/White Cocker Spaniel and on April 4, 2002 she had 7 adorable puppies. The following pictures were taken about an hour after the last puppy was born, so they are from 1 hour to 6 hours old.
This picture was taken of Amy on March 26, just one week before the babies were born. Look how big that belly is !!
