Ohhhhh, they're such cuties! I love their little white paws - looks like they were dipped in milk! :luv:
They are very cute! Did we decide that the dad is a Lab? They certainly look a lot like little yellow labs.
Oh you can always bring up an old post! :lol: Yes they were definitely lab cavalier crosses though you'd never guess they had any cavalier in them. They actually look like smallish reddish coloured labs as adults -- with larger eyes -- one still lives out with Thelly's mum so sees Ginger all the time ; the other two are in happy homes too. To be honest had I known the cross and had she been in early stages of possible pregnancy I would have done something to end the pregnancy -- a small dog like a cavalier could easily die giving birth to crosses from a dog many times her own size. Sometimes Mother Nature makes the correct adjustments and the puppies are of a size that will suit the mother as was the case here but still these were large from the start -- as can be seen in early pics; she would have had an uncomfortable time getting them out and I am sure would not have wanted to repeat the experience. They also grew very very fast which was why I had doubts pretty quickly that they could possibly be cavaliers! Fortunately mum and babies all were OK and mum was of course spayed once puppies were well weaned.
