Default Grace has whelped 8 Pups

It seems like just yesterday we went to Vermont for a few day to breed Olga's Grace of Coronation with Burdock's Coronation (and what a handsome boy he is!) and 63 short days later Grace blessed us with a wonderful litter of eight beautiful Twombly Setter pups.

Grace and her pups are happy and healthy.... but Kathy and I are still trying to get back some of the sleep we've lost in the last three days.

Congratulations to Grace, and most certainly to you and Kathy, Dean! There is something special about having a new litter of pups in the house - way beyond the lack of sleep!

Keep us posted on their progress, Dean!

Five females and three males. This will fill the orders perfectly - everybody gets the gender they wanted.

Wonderful! You'll have extend family to keep tabs on and by next Thanksgiving I am guessing you'll hear stories of their conquests.
