Tolly's Puppies


As the puppies are getting bigger and older, they are starting to develop their own personalities. We gave each of them nicknames as they were born to be able to identify them. To introduce you to some of the family , here is Domino, the big boy of the litter. He always finishes his food first and goes off looking for seconds.



Fleck is the baby, a bit timid but he can put up with the best of them.



Saddle is a sweet girl with very attractive markings like her mum.


Five Spot is the laid back boy of the litter - we usually find him asleep in Tolly's kennel.

Dotty is our baby girl, always in the the thick of the action despite her size. She gets very excited around trouser legs.



They've been enjoying the Cornish sunshine today, sleeping a lot with bursts of energy at food time. They have also got the knack of getting us up super early in the mornings....

Tolly has lost a lot of her hair - as someone said, the bitches look in a right state timed perfectly for when people come to look at the puppies. We've put her on cod liver oil and conditioning tablet supplements in the hope that her lovely thick fur and bushy tail come back to their full glory. Has anyone else experienced this?

Lucky for us the puppies cry sounds just like seagulls, so we can blame it on the birds if any neighbours feel that they are getting disturbed.
