Didn't St. Nicholas and the devil come to you? Don't be surprised, they are with us! Toulitka gave birth to three beautiful puppies on December 1st. And how else but two boys and one girl. Like St.Nicholas, the devil and an angel.
We are expecting puppies at the beginning of December. Toulitka hurried up with the matching, probably because of the warm autumn, and she liked her carefully chosen suitor Kuki Mont Arwen very much. The mating was exemplary and so after four weeks, the vet had to confirm that the puppies were developing well in their mother's tummy.

Today we decided to take pictures of puppies. Vanilla, Verbena, Viola, Václavka, Vistaria and Vilinka are three weeks old, so we decided it was the right time. Plus, an opportunity for nice photos with Christmas atmosphere.
Today our vet confirmed the pregnancy of our female Rebarborka GRAND PETROS, we are very happy that we are on our way to interesting puppies by red petit brabancon male SHEVILAN Theodor.
