| Little "T" Survives Little "T" was the third pup born on July 10th, weighing 3 ounces, only five days after his mama's first birthday. The first two, weighing 4 ounces each, didn't make it. All came breach to our 3.5 pound female, Peanut. For those ready to jump down my throat for breeding such a small female, don't! It certainly wasn't planned and especially with a 5 pound male. When I say MoJo has the mojo, I'm not kidding. It was less than a minute and he was hooked! We hosed them down with cold water and he released but still managed to live up to his name. Last Monday I called the vet to set up a C-section. Based on the one and only time MoJo got her, the appointment was set for Friday. But that didn't happen as she delivered them on her own the next morning. I was in total shock that she had three and that she was able to deliver them on her own even though they came breach and lost the first two. When the third appeared hanging from her rear, I rushed her to the vet who is only 5 miles away. I layed her on the table wrapped up in a towel. He pulled away the towel and Little "T" had been born. Everything checked out great, mama got a shot and we were sent on our way. The first couple of days was nip and tuck as she was not a very good mama and he wasn't nursing so I hand feed him and then would put milk drops on him so she would wash him. That worked and by Friday he began nursing on his own. Tomorrow he will be a week old. He's very dark color, much like Dinky and Star were as new borns. Dinky stayed dark, even his head, and star is just to opposite, very light silver. Little "T" has a big white crest on his chest like his great grandmother Reggie. The first picture was taken on Friday and the second one this morning.

| Hi Linda.. Jake's mom.... That's so sad about the other pups...I'm really glad she will be able to mother at least one...I hear sometimes they go through a mourning if they all don't make it...Is Peanut the one that always sat by or was on your husbands shoulder when we where there?...I hope the pup continues to gain weight & nurses well for you & I'm glad Peanut is ok....Mojo needs a chastity belt....

| Linda, Sorry about the loss of the two little ones. I am so happy that T survived. What a story! I know you must have been really worried. Thanks for sharing the pictures. My little ones were born just 3 days later.

| Little "T" started out as Trae but daughter had a problem with that name, long story........ Then it became Tres, Spanish for three, but I ended up with Little "T". The "T" is because he was the third one born and weighed 3 ounces. And when he gets bigger, he could be Mr. T. Just thinking, we could have called him P.T. for pup three! Anyway, "T" is doing good and that's all that matters.

| Thank you so much. I did intend on trying one breeding of Peanut with Buddy the next heat. Buddy is only 3 pounds, but that damn MoJo beat him to it. But I'm sure I would be pounced on by allowing that to happen by some on YT. What amazed me is she had a relatively easy time even though the pups were 4 and 3 ounces. That's really big for someone her small size. And of course, that's not meaning she would have an easy time next time. Thanks again!

| You have a beautiful mommy and son. Prayers for lots of health for both of them. I'm so sorry the first 2 didn't make it. I hate when that happens but thank goodness Little T hung in there.
