ellz Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Then again, maybe being a showdog isn't as much fun as being a bed dog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellz Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I started whipper snipping my property this morning but it got too hot so I decided to do 4 week puppy photos instead. They're all eating well, playing well and starting to get underfoot. Temperaments are starting to become more obvious now. There are a couple of bitches absolutely chock full of piss n vinegar whilst most of the boys just want to snuggle and be loved. I'd forgotten how many funny noises a litter of Stafford puppies can make.....when they spark up they go SICK!!!!!!! :D Not the best pics, but not bad either considering they are one-handed efforts as I am here by myself this weekend. No puppy was shaken, stirred or battered during filming. All were allowed to stand pretty much as they are built which was all I was capable of with one hand on the puppy and one hand on the camera anyway! The boys... The girls... I have NO idea what is staying......any thoughts welcome! *whispers* Please be nice, even if you don't like them, they're still my babies and I love 'em.

Chopperlodge Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 You did a really good job, even if it was one handed.... really like that KHAKI boy, girls , GREEN & YELLOW... They are all nice babies.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellz Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Thanks Chopperlodge. I'm getting mixed responses from various avenues and so far the one constant is the Khaki boy (who I call Roger) who has apparently chosen me as HIS anyway! Thank goodness he is looking nice. Just need to pray that teeth and testicles are all present and accounted for now! Green I think I'm discounting. You can't really see it from the photo....well maybe you can from her apparent inability to stand up...she appears to have a much shorter upper arm than her littermates and is quite "stodgy" in build. Not a lot of neck, but again, that could be the front assembly talking. I like Yellow, but I also like Orange overall I think. She carries herself beautifully when she moves, wobbly legs and all. I like Blue Multi's body but I don't really like her eye shape and I'm thinking she possibly has too much lip. Of course, they're still only toddlers so much can change in the next few weeks but I like to look at them when I plonk them down standing still like this initially with no "stacking practice" to see where everything lands when you put it pointing downwards.

Chopperlodge Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 that's cheating... , you get to see their movement.... I liked Miss Green because of her head front on, but yes totally agree that she isn't standing the best... I absolutely love Mr Khaki...aka Rodger, he looks to be quite the showman, stacking already... Still like Miss Yellow, but Miss Orange has a lovely head front on.. You have a hard decision to make and I'm glad its you;) but you have heaps of time on your side.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellz Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I confess that I have been spoiling Roger (aka Khaki) a little bit, but only because he asks me to! We have nanna naps together. He wobbles up and plonks himself down with his head on my arm or lays in the curve of my shoulder with his head on my neck, gives a few grunts, a couple of JAW CRACKING squeaky yawns, a big sigh and then goes to sleep. When he's ready to wake, he licks me, gives a squeak and tells me he needs to go to the toilet and then off he goes to eat or drink. He's a cute little lump. I've tried VERY hard to resist him but it is difficult. Convincing Mr Ellz that he is staying is going to give me some grief. He was supposed to choose a dog for himself and I was to have free rein on the bitches......but we apparently forgot to tell Roger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopperlodge Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) well maybe if he's not going to play by "Rogers" rules, then he will have to sit in the naughty corner and he can't play at all Edited December 20, 2009 by Chopperlodge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellz Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 well maybe if he's not going to play by "Rogers" rules, then he can't play at all Sounds fair to me! :D And when he yells at me, I shall point him to this thread and let him see that I'm not the only one who thinks he is breaking rules!
