Tass (Pyatshaw Silver Tassie) produced a litter of 3 puppies, 2 dogs,1 bitch, on 19/06/08. The sire is Mo (Pyatshaw Ravel). They were small, weighing 3ozs, and 2 @ 1 1/2 ozs. Sadly the tiny bitch survived only 2 days. Little George (3ozs) and midget Geoff battled on and began to thrive, although Geoff was much, much smaller than his brother.
This was to be Tass' last attempt to produce a litter. At first we could not get her mated, then she didn't "take" and then she lost 2 litters, the puppies being minute and she showed no interest in them whatsoever. This time her interest grew after an initial disinterest, but she attended to the front end only of the puppies. I think she would have preferred to hire a nanny, if she could managed it.
Little Geoff is now living the life of Reilly with a lady who had lost her papillon earlier in the year after having him for 14 years.
George, whom I intended renaming but never got round to it, is now at the "electric shock" state with lots of long fluffy hair sticking up everywhere, but he is cute.
