Default What are you doing? from RGO

Al, yours is the nightmare. 13 pups!! I am having enough to do with 6.
Can't imagine what 13 would be like.

I like the cereal killer reference - very funny.

Cute puppies. Mom does not look much worse for the wear, but what a
horror story!

I worked in a kennel when I was a teenager. The owner bred Gordon
Setters. His priced female gave birth to a litter of 13 and then promptly
developed an infection which required an antibiotic that made her milk
unsuitable, so the owner showed me how to feed and care for them and
handed the whole litter over to me in a box to keep with me day and night
and I took care of them round the clock from like day 2 of their lives. I
do remember loosing at least one and how they all told me it was to be
expected because there were so many.... and I also remember what is was
like to have the whole litter follow me everywhere from the time they
could walk because they thought I was their mom. Then the owner took them
all away and sold them. (That's how cereal killer are made. Just keep
from Captain Crunch and Count Chocula and everything should be fine.)
