Quite a few years ago, I had a phone call from a very excited couple who'd just had their first litter........two pups. I asked "what sex are they?" Hmmmmmmm. A few moments went by and the husband got on the phone and asked me, in a deadpan voice, how they could tell. I asked him if he was serious, and he said yes..how could they tell? I asked him if he could tell the difference between boys and girls in humans..........and then I told him to turn the puppies over, one at a time. That didn't help. He still couldn't tell. So, I explained a few things to him........and he put his wife back on the line...she told me he thought I was kidding him........... Anyway, the pups were both males........and luckily, these people never bred another litter......... I told my husband (now my ex) that maybe that explained why these two had never had any children......... LOL Peggy Amytortoise@xxxxxxx wrote: >How about dumb puppy buyers.
