Thank you to everyone who took the time to comment on my entry, your remarks are much appreciated. This little puppy is a little girl. Charlotte had one little boy and two little girls, but before the birth we all thought she must have had half-a-dozen in there as she was so fat!!! She looked like a real little football!! LOL
