Judging by some of the puppies' coloring and coat length, we are guessing that Libby's babies are probably Australian Shepherd mixes. This is only a GUESS. We are also guessing that they will be medium to medium-large sized dogs when full grown. Please understand that Aussies are a herding breed and can be heel nippers by nature. They also may require more mental as well as physical stimulation to keep them from getting bored - and that boredom can lead to behavior issues.
Everyone is fascinated by Winslow's split-face markings, but he doesn't think he's any different than his siblings. His coloring relatively common in several breeds, including Australian Shepherds. Nevertheless, he seems to get the most comments to his pictures on FB, so no doubt he will be adopted quickly.
Puppies from this litter are expected to be old enough to leave on or about Monday, June 20, as long as our vet and the puppies' foster mom feels they are ready when the time comes.
Please remember that puppies this young will need you now more than ever because this is the age when they begin to understand structure and routine. Besides the fact that their bodies are not developed enough to “hold it” when they are this young, leaving them crated or unattended for hours on end will not offer them the love, attention, socialization, exercise, or training that they will need to become the adult dogs you want them to be for their lifetime - and your lifetime too.
