I was SOOOO thrilled yesterday when I realized that none of my Woodsideâs
Megabucks puppies were long-coated. I can tell best at about 3 weeks of age;
after that, they donât look so coated sometimes. I can look into a box of
puppies all sitting there ever so cute looking up at me, and can immediately
spot the coats ! They have that âschnauzerâ muzzle. I hopefully
speculated that the mother didnât carry for coat (a MVX CH Liberia daughter)
â sheâs had one litter before to a male that carried coat, and there were
no long coats in that litter; plus I wouldnât call her a âdryâ bitch, but
just not quite as plush-coated as others. So . . . YEA !!!! â I have FIVE
normal-coated puppy bitches to choose from, and the one male in the litter
(poor kid) I am sure will be a keeper for a while.
How does everyone else spot the long-coats and at what age ?
Thanks for reading as I sit here in sunny (but not warm) West Virginia â
people keep asking me did I move here from New Jersey because I thought it
would be warmer ? No â actually the weather here is very much like New
Jersey, except for in the summer time when it is a bit âcoolerâ here, with
no New Jersey pollution. YEA !
