And the
number is… (drumroll…) 5 !!!
As I noted
in Galena’s ultrasound announcement, this may not be 100% accurate, but we
expect it’s got a good chance of being so, although the vet who did the ultrasound this time wasn't our usual expert, so I'm not sure what her track record is like. But she was confident she counted five. So the
short-list for the most likely winner of the Guess How Many Puppies contest (Topaz
edition) is Emma P and Sarah P. Stay tuned for the final outcome!
It’ll be
another four weeks before we can announce the final winner - meaning the puppies will have been born. In the meantime – as
I said before – watch this space for news!
At this
point, anyone who is interested in one of Topaz’s puppies is invited to send in
a deposit to fix your place on the waiting list. Of the four families who indicated an interest in this litter, two have already sent in their deposit, so we can accept up to three more. (If you haven’t already sent
in an application form, we need one of those two, which you can download or
request by e-mail.)
With Springville
Zippity Doo Dah (Zip) of Canadian Doodle Puppies as sire, Topaz’s pups will all
be shades of gold-apricot-red in solid or parti. They may have curly or wavy fleece
coats, and are likely to range in size from 15-25 lbs at maturity. Puppy
allocation will primarily be based on the best match between the
characteristics the puppies display at temperament testing (done at age 7
weeks) and the characteristics you specify as most important in your
application form. We may keep one female as a breeding prospect and welcome
inquiries from people interested in being Guardians. The rest of the puppies will
all be going as pets.
Happy puppy
dreams!
