Thanks Samantha... looking at those gorgeous pups was a GREAT way to start my morning. They are like a bunch of little love magnets! How can you NOT be always picking one or more up? Mom is looking totally self satisfied with what she has produced and dad's looking pretty proud as well.

I have to say... Every picture I see of Rumley... I just don't see St Bernard... I see a cross of Pyr and Golden Retriever... I see it in color, head structure, face... He just looks like every golden I've owned. Maybe with the pyr size. Regardless, he's also a good looking dog.

Ha ha! Thanks! And I know what you are saying. The vet didn't believe it either. But he definitely has the Bernard mentality and size. He does have a lot of extra skin like his momma did too. He took after her.

They are so cute, and soon so trouble

Hahaha You betcha! I can't wait until they are busy bodies. That is my favorite part. Right now it is all about mom. Once they start eating some solids they start to not care if they are away from her as much. Absolute favorite is when they play hard and pass out basically while playing they get so tired lol. I think Stella is already ready for them to be getting their food from somewhere other than her poor dog.

They are getting absolutely HUGE already! And sooo beautiful. Stella and Rumely have every reason in the world to be proud. You know, with so many coyotes, wolves and cougars in the area, you really DO need an LGD. Tell your DH it would just be wrong to pass on God's timely provision. One (or 2?) to learn to be proper LGDs, and a half dozen to help pay the expenses. That sounds perfectly reasonable. Of course, you know how to work your DH better than I, but most men, mine included, love it when we appeal to their sense of reason. They think they're so rational, even when they aren't, but it is the perfect opening for us to work some wifely magic. He's loving those goats (even though he AND YOU never thought he would), and it shouldn't be too hard to coax him into allowing a pup or 2 to stay. Imagine the savings over purchasing an LGD.

I am hoping so... a Team would be my preference.

I should add that ALL puppies eyes are open now!
