<-- Poor Brandy is trying to
understand why her belly drags the floor .
This was the problem. The
little sable pup and her big chocolate sister are both girls. The
other sister is black, as are both of the boys. Little Sable is a
tiny thing.-->
|
|
|
<-- Similar pictures, as expected.
This one was taken the night they were born.
This one was taken a week later. Not much difference
except the kids are bigger --> |

|
|
<-- Sisters make good pillows.
They don't do much at this age except eat sleep
and pee, but they're always kinda fun just to watch, anyway. --->
|
|
|
<-- Family photo.
Dad always helps out. -->
|
|
|
<-- I know, another picture of them
eating; but, look at the second pup from the left. That's "Li'l
Bit." Such a tiny thing.
Even when the kids are sleeping,
Dad is around to keep them tidy. --->
|
|
|
<-- Take a look at who has one of the big
feeders in the back. She doesn't want to be "Li'l Bit"
forever.
Think she's not serious? Check out the look
on her face and her dedication to purpose. She knows she has some
catching up to do. --->

<-- Dad is quietly watching his babies play --
totally unaware that somebody is sneaking up on him
With five kids, it's always hard to get them all
to the dinner table on time. --> |
|
|
<-- Not getting any easier, as Coco
appears to prefer playing to eating.
Brother decides to go have a talk with Dad, and
earns a dirty look from Mom, while Coco continues to play --> |
|
|
<-- "Daddy, will you tell me a
story?"
Dad gives the kids a little lesson in tender
affection. --> |
|
|
<-- Now Mom is watching the kids play,
but brother is too busy too play.
Looks like Mom is taking a little nap and Coco is
taking a little advantage of it. --> |
|
|
<-- Think I'll go for a walk while they
sleep.
But, not a long one; I need a nap, too. --> |
|
|
<-- It really is hard to
get these kids organized for supper. -->
|
|
|
<-- Mom starts to look frustrated, so Dad
comes over to speak to the children. --> |
|
|
<-- Dad is cleaning his paw while
Li'l Bit sneaks up on him.
"He doesn't want to play; guess I'll just go
for a walk by myself." --->
