Never again

[cross_7]

We had a male get in with a female that we had not intended to breed.
Long story short we have 3 puppies and a mother without milk.
After 6 days of bottle feeding every 4 hours we (mostly my wife since I travel for a living) are already tired of the routine.
I had been wanting to breed the male but not to this female.
If they don't turn out well then it will be a further disappointment

What are they Border Collies or Boston Terriers? How old was/is the female?

Good luck with them.

They are border collies, 100% McCallum genetics and the male is a really good dog but the female never has been much, just not aggressive enough, but I still have high hopes.
The female is 4 years old

Sometimes the pups facing the most adversities , challenges and struggles turn out to be they best ones ever . Look at Nikki and all she has been through, she is one of the most hard working gals around and takes each challenge at stride . Maybe these will all turn out to be great dogs and at the very least a wonderful pet to someone who needs to how wonderful life with a Border Collie is. :nod:

Hang in there with the feeding, you only have 4 more weeks to go . :help: Good luck !

One of my best dogs is a mutt from an accidental mating and the dad doesn't work worth a crap... She's got some border-collie, mcnab, queensland, kelpie, and a dollop of Catahoula as far as I can tell. :lol:
I had all of the pups placed in new homes but two cam back due to family situations and both have made really good dogs.
