Been waiting for the fence guy, so didn't take my phone with me. Took a few pups out 2 at a time after dinner and this time, they were a little more interested in the ewes than their poop, but not much, lol.
Luckily, the girls seem more mellow and curious about the pups, so no strong threats and Surry even let one of them sniff over her leg and face some.

Went out and bought a boatload of meat and other things to make satin balls for mom.
Had to go to 3 different stores to find everything, lol.
People gave me such weird looks, thin lady running around with 20# of raw meat, big case of jello, 3 jars of wheat germ, tons of eggs, as my ducks' eggs are being used for the puppy feed. Store eggs are so thin shelled! =/

Cleaned everything out and let them all out before dark when it was hotter in the barn than outside. So the ewes were out grazing and the pups could roam safely. Daddy dog almost made a friend with Blackie.
No pics of that, just from before and videos.

Daddy dog is funny... He just doesn't quite know what to make of those little things. Give em another month when they're able to give chase! Daddy's gonna be in for some excitement!

I think I'm going to keep back Tiny, Greenie & Blue.

Brownie & Purple are similar and I'll have to figure out if I want to swap one of them for one of the above males.

HD wants to keep back the runt (Tiny/Light Blue), but I'm keeping her back just to find her a home much later on when she's grown better. Greenie seems to be independent, but also a little playful, so that's better than her mom, who can be needy.

Blue & Blackie are both a bit independent, with Blue more dominant & Blackie more playful.

Brownie & Purple would be most independent, boy versions of Greenie.

So then, Yellow, Orange, Aruu, Blackie, Brownie & Red I'll list as available so people can start choosing. If I decide to gowith a different male that happens to still be available at that moment, I'll swap them.


Trying to think of which personalities would work with their parents. I don't really want another needy dog or goofy, something that fits between them.
Mom is needy, submissive, but does her job.
Dad is super playful and goofy, submissive, but takes his job seriously when need be.

They are so cute. I have never seen GP's with black markings like that. I've some with blonde facial markings, my male had blonde ears, but they fades to white. Your pups are so pretty.
