... 4 week old Welsh Springers.
They were adorable and fubsy as such little puppies always are (pupslugs, anyone?) but their mum was very reserved and shy and I wasn't keen on a pup taking after her.
I really, really liked the other bitch there, a gorgeous blue roan Working Cocker who is due to have pups in 3 weeks. She was everything I like in a spaniel. I have enquired about taking a pup from her litter, and I wonder if anyone can cast any light on what sorts of colours the pups might be? Dad is an unusual colour, lemon roan.
From what I have read I think the babies are likely to be particoloured and roan, but could all be black or practically any other colour there is depending on what recessive colours mum is carrying. Does anyone have any practical experience of this?
