I thought it was a good idea to. But I wound up takeing them off. I tied each ribbon really loose (for obvious reasons) but they kept falling off. I afraid to tie them tighter.

I know this sounds weird but you could paint one toenail a diff color or even buy some non toxic paint the little bottles the acrylic paint and do a little dot on eachone till you know them better

Congrats on your babies!

Reminds me of my first two litters. I was really nervous. I really didnt know a whole lot, but I thought I did. And I had two litters about a week apart!
They sure did look alike! Black and tan.............who could tell them all apart! To me they were all carbon copies. So that made me morrrrrrrrrre nervous. I couldnt tell a darn thing except the color of the puppies. Black and tan, tan and black!!!!! Oh gess how would I ever tell them apart!?
.........I marked the end of their tails with finger nail polish

One litter white, one litter bright red.

Not sure if that was the best way to mark.

But at that time it was so important! I really didnt think I could tell them apart. And it worked. They dont all look alike as they mature but as puppies they are hard to tell apart.

i used colored embrodery (sp) thread and croched a chain long enought to go around their necks. just keep watch as they get bigger to change them with the growth. you wouldn't need to crochet a chain, just use the thread.
I had them all ready before they were born. as each one came they got their thread. they were then refered to as green ,blue, pink and yellow until they got names.

Your new babies are so beautiful! I can't believe how many she had... how big is she? I hope the tiny does well in the next few days!

btw, I went to photobucket to look at your puppy pictures, and saw you adorable skin children too... what a beautiful family you have.

Amber weighs 5 1/2 pounds. But we lost a pup this morning. So we now have 5 healthy puppies.

CocosMom- I wound up using nail polish and put a dot on each puppies head (each puppy has their own color). Congrats on your upcoming litter! Do you know how many she is having?

Joeysmom- Thank you for the compliment. I just cant get enough of babies. All kinds of babies!!

ldenise- That is a good idea!!

luvdorkyyorkies- lol that is exactly how I feel black and tan, tan and black lol.

What kind of nail polish did you use, if you don't mind me asking? Just for future reference. I did use ribbon last time, but didn't feel comfortable with it. Is any nail polish okay or is there one that is better to use?

CocosMom · 09-10-2006, 04:30 AM

Oh, I am sorry to hear you lost one!!! Thanks, for the nail polish. I think that is what I am going to do if I need to. I don't know how many she is having, I haven't gotten an xray. I don't think I am going to. This is her first litter, she is big to us, we'll see! Good luck with your pups. I may be needing more of your advice soon! Coco is due Sept 23-25. Have fun with your puppies!

Congrats on your litter! They are all so adorable!
I'm sorry to hear you lost one. Was it the little one?

My Juliet is only 11 wks but I'm interested in breeding her when she's old enough. I know nothing about it and would like to learn more. Any suggestions on where to learn all about breeding???
