Maks is one of a small number of Dalmatians worldwide that carries two copies of the desirable SLC2A9 gene therefore every puppy he produces will have one copy of the gene and therefore Low Uric Acid (LUA)! Emily has one copy of the LUA gene so we expect some of these puppies to have two copies! This beautiful litter is the result of breeding an outcrossed female back to her sire. I believe that homozygous puppies from this litter will be very useful in incorporating the LUA gene in other bloodlines. They are very healthy and consistent.

Day Forty Two

Another busy day and I only got about half of the things I hoped to accomplish completed. Every time we raise a litter I get a new respect for working mothers. How on earth do they do it?  I did manage to steal an hour for myself to go to curves. YAY! After all the puppies are in there new homes I am going to sleep for a month!

For some reason I cannot upload pictures tonite.  Sorry.... I had some cute ones too.

Well I found a way around Blogger not letting me upload pictures last night but it is much harder. So here are pictures from Thursday.
