This was not a planned breeding. I sincerely thought Sasha was finished with her heat. Mac had been ignoring her the day before and chasing Kadena. :) To see Kadena's puppies; click.
To see all their previous litters, from birth to the present; click.
Millions of pictures to come. As soon as I figure out the new camera :)

Order we popped out and our nicknames :)
#1 11:01 p.m. Sept. 26th BOY - GOOF
#2 11:37 p.m. BOY - UH-OH
Goof's a daddy ditto only his front socks are more even. The white is a little higher on the right front. He has a white tip on his tail and more white on his chest then ever I've seen. He's got white feet in the back and a white chin. Born butt first if that means anything :) Weighed in at 16 ozs.
White baby weighing in at 17 ozs. Biggest puppy!
#3 12:12 a.m. Sept. 27th BOY - YIKES
Yikes is another daddy ditto but could get brindling like mama. He's got white toes on all four feet and a tiny, tiny white tip on his tail. There's a triangle shaped white marking on his chest. Yikes weighed 14 ozs.
Thanks for the cute nicknames Jackie!!!
#4 12:24 a.m. BOY - WOAH
Another Macky ditto who could change to brindle. Woah has almost white knee socks in the front. Front left has a little more white. White feet in the back. He's got the second biggest white tip on his tail and a thin stripe of white from his chin to his peepee :) Weighing in at 15 ozs.
#5 1:18 a.m. BOY - BOO-BOO
Boo-Boo is almost totally black except for the tiny white spot on his chest. I think he's a Rudolf/Turk ditto. I think he'll stay really dark with some brindling. Boo-Boo weighed in at 14 ozs.
#6 1:34 a.m. BOY - OOPS
Oops is a white boy and he weighs 14 ozs.
#7 3:47 a.m. GIRL - BLOOPER Praise the Lord! Finally a GIRL!!!
Blooper is dark brown with a lighter brown/tan mane. She's got white toes on the back feet and a tiny white line on her chest. Bloop weighed in at 15 ozs.
#8 4:45 a.m. GIRL - MISTAKE/MISSY
Missy is a white girl. She scared me. I didn't get her breathing properly for a good 5-10 minutes. She's perfect now and weighin' in at a stealthy 16 ozs.
#9 5:35 a.m. BOY - CHECK MARK (Wrong answer, get it?) Sorry Jackie, I just had to change this one.
Marky is a daddy ditto. He has a white mark on the back of his neck. Mac's brother has a total white ring around his neck. I almost picked him over Mac. Whew. Anyway, I think Marky's marks were tryin' to be like uncles, so he probably won't brindle. He's got white feet in the back and almost matching knee socks in the front. White tip on his tail. Marky weighs 15 ozs.
#10 5:50 a.m. BOY - BOBBLE
Bobble's a white guy and he weighs 15 ozs.
#11 10:05 a.m. BOY - BUMBLE
Bumble made his way into the world all by himself. I thought we were done. Course, I thought there were only 7 puppies in there. Surprise, surprise :) He also weighs 15 ozs.
(Spoken for)
Goof and Uh-Oh
Blooper
Good mama :)
Precious little miracles. These pictures were all taken their first two days of life.
Everybody is doing great! Knock on wood. Some even act like their daddy already, hehehe
Check Mark "Marky"
Blooper
They can't see or hear yet but they can sure complain :)
I'll weigh everybody again on their two week birthday.
We're baaaaaaaaaaack!!!! Finally!!!
There's my buddy Tre' holdin' Goof, I think.
ADORABLE, both of um :)
No monsters here, hehehe
They'll be two weeks old this weekend. I'll weigh um all and update ya.
Still four babies available. We just don't know which ones yet.
This guy is movin' to California. He'll have a big sister named Ripley, who may be related to my Macky, and a couple of majorly doting new parents, Mark and Heather :) They have chosen "Woah". I don't think we have a name yet???
Here are some other Sasha white babies that I'm really proud of :)
Marshmellow/Mikko from Sasha's 3rd litter.
Coconut/Kumo from Sasha's 3rd litter.
Comet/Tashii from Sasha's first litter.
"Check Mark - Marky" will either go with Mike, Chris, Matt, Alex and Kow or Sheila and her hubby Ken. We'll know by the 7th.
Okay, I have a new excuse for the lack of new pictures. My brand new scanner won't work now. When it rains... Help's on the way. SOON :)
In the mean time, does anybody have any tentative puppy picks? Mellissa, are you guys going boy or the white girl? Harley, are you thinkin' white or Macky colored or Sasha colored? Sara? Ain't this exciting? :))))))))))))) Not rushin' anybody. This is an important decision.
Boo-Boo will be a brindle, I THINK. The rest of the boys will look like their daddy, I THINK :) Well, not the white ones. Course, most of the white ones have daddy's block head :))))))
Baby update :) At two and a half weeks old we all got de-wormed for the first time and weighed again. I didn't have the energy to do the 198 toenails. Maybe tomorrow :)

Uh-Oh - 3 lbs. 10 ozs.
Yikes - 2 lbs. 14 ozs.
Woah - 3 lbs. 6 ozs.
BooBoo - 2 lbs. 12 ozs.
Oops - 2 lbs. 14 ozs.

Spent another couple hours on the scanner this morning. No luck. I'll take all these pictures over to my buddy's house and scan um if I have to. Sorry and thanks for your patience. Everybody is happy and healthy!!!
I WON THE SCANNER BATTLE :)
These pictures are a week old to two weeks old.
They're bigger than this now. The Brashears, Sara and Curt, were here today. We'll have some great pictures as soon as they get home and send back the ones they took.
Sara and Curt want a Macky colored boy for sure. They like Goof, Woah and Marky the best.
Check Mark - Marky
Marky
Boo-Boo
Their mother decided to share some dog food with um. Maybe it was a hint :)
They started eating soggy Purina Puppy Chow, Large Breed Formula, mixed with powdered milk and warm water, at 2 1/2 weeks of age.
Blooper :)
All the white babies have black noses now.
Goof?
Boo-Boo
That one boy is ALWAYS on his back, hehehe
More pictures comin' on Saturday. Nice ones taken by Sara and Curt.
Another Bear fan, this guy will be movin' to Illinois too, with Monica and her gang. Monica just left here with a white boy. We'll say he was "Bobble", since I can't tell Uh-Oh from Bobble from Bumble. :) His new name is "Sam".
White baby girl, "Mistake - Missy", is goin' to Chicago, Il. Darby and Jen sent this nice family to us. Thanks guys!

White baby boy "Uh-Oh". He's an awesome boy and will be very big. He's been the biggest puppy all along. He'll be going to either Mike and family or Sheila and Ken.
