Pearl and Kubota Puppies: Sterling, Ford, Mack and Western Star

Pearl had her puppies, 3 boys and a 1 girl, starting at 7am on Sunday June 3rd. Right on her due date! She patiently had them all day, the last one born around 4pm. She has been a very good mom, despite the terrible torture of the heat lamp for 48 hours. Her choice of mate was Kubota, and I am happy to say there is a small version of Kubota, oddly enough the one girl, Western Star has the same colors and markings as dad. The small boy, Sterling, looks just like mom. Mack, the very dark faced boy looks like Kubota's sister Darka did at the same age. Ford is just a handsome devil.
