    A small update on the babies

    Both Polkadot's and Pretty Face are now together in the pup tank

    The two bigger ones are BD Hybrids from Pretty Face and the 3 little ones are pure BD from Polkadot

    Food time!!!

    They're like under water puppies, so adorable!! Do they play with each other much too?

    So I'm going to have a guess and say no more polkadot kids for a while after this experience? (TASA needs that thinking face)

    Yes they do interact a lot with each other even as adults they like company of their own kind

    Thanks @Whoknows

    5 or 6 is a good size litter
    Not so much strain on mommy and babies are not too big or too small
    Also easier to manage but I guess we cant ask for what we want...
