Mags has got cool down to an art but we managed to catch a goofy puppy grin.

Logan. He's a good lookin' boy.

Jean. Soft, quiet and very pretty Jean.

And last but certainly not least is Charlie. I don't know if very many folks caught it but he's got freckles on his white ear.

Just a couple more weeks and all but one will wander off to new homes. I am so happy they all are marvelous families for these babies. But I'm gonna miss them. sniff.

You are going to have so much fun this weekend. I wish I was not so far away. Today I vote for Logan and Jean. Tomorrow . . . They are all darling.

Well, Elsa, thankfully we live in the digital age because they don't stand still. My wonderful, lovely and patient daughter Chloe took 350 pictures. I also have a pretty decent camera that can take pictures one right after another. On several of these what you *don't* see is that my hand was just there positioning a leg or about to grab them from jumping off the table in between shots.

this has been a very consistent litter... there are several very promising looking puppies! Congrats, Le'o! :)

Elsa said...

yes, the digital age is a marvelous tool! the puppies are all so great looking, their markings are very distinctive already ... know they still have to grow into them, but they all look great! your daughter is a good photographer!

Léo said...

Thanks Traci. I agree. It's been tough making up my mind. Happily for the pet people I have no inquiries for boys for conformation-inclined homes and I have too many.

No word on who you're leaning towards? :)

They are so cute. I might lean towards Jean. Or maybe Logan.

Léo said...

And here I thought I was obviously in love with Rogue...
People might see the markings and think that's all I'm looking at but it really isn't.
Photos are hard and the background and slight shift in angle changes everything. Putting my hands on them everyday and watching their movement and personalities I think the top two picks are Rogue for a girl and Logan for the boy. He has really nice movement for only 8 weeks old.
I'll try to take more pictures, maybe some video of movement and break down what I'm seeing and you can all tell me that I'm blind. LOL!!

Jeri said...

Take more pictures of Rogue's front. That was the deal breaker for me with her, but maybe it's just a bad photo. Otherwise, she looks nice. How is it on the move too?

Léo said...

Really Jeri? hmmmmmm.

Please 'splain. Cuz I like her front in that picture. And anyone who reads this please chime in.

On the move? I just got some advice on assessing movement at this age. They're all napping at the moment. And motivating a sleepy baby to move well is a tad unproductive. They come alive in the evening when it cools. I'll try again then.

Ya, I think Rogue is a little shorter. I would choose Jean to show, she is so proportional and her coat is beautiful. I can't wait to meet them on saturday!
