Jeez Jim, your good luck sure worked. She just got 500 bucks for the last one I would have picked out of the litter. They're all sweet and cute and lovable, but I just have a knack for picking out the best of 'em.

That's good Mark. Tell her that I worked magic and that she has to make a donation for her good fortune.......to you!

These people are not going to have much fun with their new baby for the first 3 or 4 days as she is too attached to her 2 brothers that are left. I knew Jody and Diane were getting one about 6 weeks ago, so I started bringing her out to the motor home for 3 to 4 hours at a time everyday to get her used to being separated. It's strange how they do not get attached to their mom, it's their siblings they miss. In fact the mother dog pretty much throws them out of her life at about the age of 5 weeks.

When I was in high school the welding shop was the hangout. My senior year I had a "career exploratory" class on top of my regular welding class. The teacher was cool as he!!! He would let me and my buddy do pretty much what ever we wanted. Man those were the days. As far as horsing around though he DID NOT tolerate that. Whole lot of people only had one year of welding for pissing the teacher off. People would take it thinking they could get by with anything and you could as long as you got your work done. Over the years I've learned alot of ways to get people back in the welding shop. Most of them would not go over well in a high school welding shop though.

I never realized that Mark. I thought that it would be the mother that the pups missed.

It surprised me too Jim. In fact the mother gets quite rough with them. Once she decides they are going to be weaned (first sign of baby teeth) thats it, she is done with them. She will actually snap at them, will no longer clean up after them. This is not true of just this litter, but of every one I have witnessed in the last few years.

I wish I had a shop class or a welding class but all we had was Tech Theater, so I took 3 years of that. I can build anything but really wanted a car class.
