Puppies are cute
« on: May 27, 2009, 08:52:38 pm »
Hi Everyone,

 More changes around here! gosh it's like a merry-go-round lately. Zeier got adopted by a wonderful family before we could really even get to know him. He is going to be the only pet and be spoiled rotten.

 He was a sweetheart of a dog and I always like the older dogs they are just so calm and dignified.

In other news we just got two five week old english mastiff puppies in. So introducing Smith, a fawn male with a black mask and Rose a brindle female with a black mask.

The breeder had an accidental litter where a brother got in with his sister. He didn't want to cull the puppies but didn't want to deal with them either.

They appear to be perfectly fine except for being young of course. Both of them are under socialised but they'll get plenty of that here amongst the cats, kids, other dogs, other animals.

I tried to get pictures of them earlier but none of them came out really well.

You can see some blurry photographs here though

Aww!  They're so CUTE!

And good for you for taking them in, are you fostering them or are they staying with you?

That leads me to another question that is probably best left to a post all its own, but hopefully the answer won't be too long.  What is Culling?  Is it what I think it is? and Why would a breeder do it?   ??? :-[

PS. I <3 Puppies.  :-*

Culling is generally associated with euthanizing however  putting into pet homes is a way of culling also.  Generally it is a way to remove inferior animals or to at least remove them from the breeding population.
