A lot has happened this summer. School has started and I have to admit
that I don't think I've ever been so excited for all that's should be
happening this school year. I've not (as usual) been very good at
keeping up with the blog. It's been a busy summer and now it's pretty
crazy with bees, grapes, garden, AnetA and school. Perhaps one of the
main events of the summer has been Nikki's fulfilling the measure of her
creation, overfilling. A couple of weeks after I returned from France I
was playing with Nikki and she rolled onto her back. To my surprise
she had sprouted . . . nozzles and within two weeks she delivered 11
puppies. One died but the remaining 10 are thriving and are now ready
to find their own homes. Nikki is the best behaved dog I've ever owned
and I hear that her sister is the same way. I imagine the puppies will
be just as loyal, playful and obedient as their mother and aunt. Nikki
is a black lab and terrier mix and the puppies look like the father was a
St Bernard though I doubt they'll get to be that big. They're seeking
good homes full of love and affection. Honestly, we're not sure about
Papa. There are 5 male and 5 female puppies and here are their mug
shots as well as some wider angled images.
