My boy was a gift from my neighbor after I delivered him and his 5 siblings while my neighbor was at work. He would have probably died without assistance (he was the first out but breech and his head was still inside when mama started to bite at the cord so I pulled him out.) The runt almost died, too- I spent a lot of time working on that little bugger to keep him alive. In all there were 6 pups when the neighbor was only expecting 4 or 5 and 2 would have probably died without me so she gave me one as a gift- which ever pup I wanted (out of the 5 males, the 1 girl was already purchased.) I chose Blazer- the medium size brown boy with four white paws and a blaze of white on his chest. My oldest daughter named him the night the pups were delivered. I've been with him all but 4 days of his entire life so far. He'll be a year at the end of May.
