The Sire - Larro Team Gaudi (Italian Import) |
I have little to go on, but from the photo the darker puppy with the black mask appeals to me the most. The breeder say that at the moment the darker one has a shorter muzzle and squarer head, and the other one is not as pigmented in the head. I guess that's why he appeals to me, I prefer a squarer darker head, like Dexi, Mikey and Louis rather than the longer muzzle of some of the other males I've had. Of course it is very early days and so much can change and she did say the lighter one had more length of body, which of course is something to consider. She says that they are both "lovely chaps, very friendly and outward going" ..
The breeder still want to keep her name on my pup for showing purpose, we've discussed it at length. She assures me that she would have no authority over the dog, he would be owned solely by me and she is happy to put that in writing. I think as we have both had bad experiences in the past that we need to do that, it safeguards everyone and no one can change their mind or go back on their word. Though I have known her for years it's only to say "Hi" too, so I have done a little digging with trusted mutual friends. Everyone seems to like and trust her and that helps me take the chance of doing something I said I'd never do again .. Never say never eh!
Anyway I doubt there will be many photos, but without being over bearing I may ask again next Tuesday when they will be 5 weeks old. I really hope this time it works out for me as now there really isn't another back up plan ... and lets not forget we need balls! lol
