Our new puppy!

It's been quiet around here since the last of the puppies went home this past weekend, other than the one we kept. We kept Windy, name now Willow, who is out of Razzle by Posh. She's a full sister to Karen Randall's Kodi.

She spent a lot of time in a small expen the first day, and came out in the house with us and the rest of the dogs when she was playful. Now she has the run of the house, falls asleep in a lap to be put back in her sleeping pen, and gets right into everything with the other dogs except she has to eat in a wire crate, because she is VERY food motivated, and doesn't mind getting snapped at trying to steal food out of someone elses bowl.

She goes to a litter box every time, and hasn't had the first "accident". We do have one extra box out in front of the TV.

Just a little while ago, she asked to go outside for the first time. The picture below is from her session outside.

She is a real pleasure, little trouble, and fits right in with the rest of them

I just figured the COI for a breeding between Brio and Nike-5 generations back, and the results are 14.453.... It's recommended generally to stay below 15% so we were very pleased with being just less, since we know all the dogs on the pedigree(most personally, but some through their owners) and they are all healthy or have lived long lives. Earliest death for one was 15, some 16, and 17.

Brio and Willow would be a very similar COI, but probably a little less-without figuring it yet. We are a long ways away from planning Willow's future, but are getting closer to plans for Nike.

I was hoping Nike would be a "workin' girl" for a while!:)

Brio and Nike will probably produce beautiful Pups!
I figure they are too young (even Brio), since he has to pass all his health testing first.

I told the boys yesterday about you keeping a new Pup and they looked at me and asked at the same time..."Are WE getting another Puppy from Tom?" :pound:

Wow, that's all mind boggling, but you sure have had enough practice. What about Jefe? Is he in your breeding future? Sorry for all the questions, Tom. Maybe we should have done this all through PMs u less others are interested.
