I'm glad you liked the story ... the funniest part is when you think of it, it comes to at least 36 sheepdog puppies in a really small town in Colorado - and they always sold within a week - who would think that many people would want a sheepdog in a tiny town? Oh, and when the vet palpated Sugar we were told we would be lucky if we got one or two puppies, because they were all up under her ribs, and he couldn't feel them - so imagine our amazement when they kept coming, and coming and coming!

Well, Shell, that story made my day. Thank you. It's worth it all. Jeannine *Michele Burr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>* wrote: I can vouch for the not making a profit part - LOL! My parents raised Old English Sheepdogs, they were champion lines, they only had the female. So, you have a stud fee which I think at the time was around $400. Then Sugar Plum had 13 puppies, the first took too long and the last two were still born, we couldn't resuscitate them. The puppies needed their tails docked, and really with a dog
