Jill must have gone up the hill with Jack at the racetrack and did more than fetch a pail of water (and didn't tell anyone). She gave birth to her litter of five puppies on August 9, 2006. Three males and one female survived. Being a mother comes naturally to her and she has settled right into that role. She's a very attentive little mommy.
She is a beautiful red fawn girl, almost 2 ½ years old. She's a healthy 59 pounds. Retirement and motherhood both suit her, and she has adjusted easily to the good life in a home. She and her pups instantly integrated into her foster home with four other dogs (three small ones and one Greyhound), one cat, and a three-year-old toddler. Check out the slide show at the bottom for more pictures.
Austin is the most handsome of the puppies. He is light brindle in color with a white patch on his chest. He LOVES to play and romp with his brothers and sister! Austin makes grunt sounds as he tries to get a game going with whomever his current victim is.
This little guy has personality plus! He is similar in markings and color to Austin, because he is light brindle and has a white chest, but he has a thin white line on his nose. I call it Biscuit Batter. He is a charmer and will cuddle as soon as he'll romp with you. He and Austin are especially close.
