Craig reports that Maya's tail is three inches longer than Teaka's. So I had to measure, and found the same thing: Faith's tail is two inches longer than McKenzie's. (Teaka, by the way, is McKenzie's sister, so I've always wondered if Maya (formerly Miss Pink) recognized the resemblance and thought Teaka was kinda McMommy to her.)
It is very strange -- to me, anyway -- raising a puppy who has been here all her life. Faith is so bold and comfortable, a resilient problem-solver who acts as if she owns the place. The only one of the dogs who informs her that she does not is her mother, although in general they are so adorable and sweet with each other, their wild play in the yard punctuated by extremely loud rounds of bitey-face.
OK, the latest pictures. Top: Keen (formerly Miss Purple). Middle: Dooley (formerly Blaze Orange Bob, a/k/a BOB), and Faith, a/k/ FayBee (Faith plus Baby) the former Miss Red with McKenzie.
Got more? Send 'em. I was talking about the puppies to a friend of mind, and how glad I am for the experienced, loving homes they're in, and how I can't help but to wonder how they're doing. She isn't a dog person -- or a pet person at all, really -- and she thought that was somewhat strange. It never occurred to her that the kind of breeders we long to be and to work with NEVER stop caring about the dogs we bring into the world! -- Gina
