The Watership Down Litter - Winter 2018

DOB 27 December 2018

Sire: Vinzenz Del Penon De Ifach

Dam: Einstein Spartacus Fitzgerald

We were very excited to announce the arrival of this litter of 12 beautiful puppies (13 with one angel baby known as Captain Holly) the day after boxing day. Einstein delivered naturally in only a few hours and was an exceptional mom. As with all our litters, we tried to tie the names to a theme and chose one of my favorite childhood novels, Watership Down.

The litter were busy and just a joy to have. It was quite surprising how many Einstein had on her very first litter but they all fit in perfectly while they were here. Like all of our litters, we did supplement this litter to help momma as 12 was a very big number to feed. And like all our litters, they were raised at our feet with 24/7 care and a focus on socialization and creating a well rounded and amazing pet for our families.
