Puppy Dog ( 9,0 Abs)

Majority of both the puppy dog and puppy bitch were dominated by 2 litters. One litter was 11 months old and one litter was 10 months old, both had a lot to offer and I’m sure they will change places often as they mature. The 11 month litter were very flashy whereas the 10 month litter were a bit darker
