For those anxiously awaiting for the Nellie x Emmett litter to arrive....

Here is poor Nellie, laden with six puppies that must all weigh a pound a piece in there! Her belly is so round and low. Hopefully, she will be a whole lot lighter soon! I am sure she is tired of lugging all that weight around! Pups will be ruggedly built large miniatures weighing 23 to 28 lbs. or so.

Although she has lightened up, her tips are still a rich deep apricot.

Pregnant Nellie. Seems like there should be more than six pups! She is so heavy. 30.4 lbs.

A svelte Nellie at 24 lbs.
