I have come to the conclusion that Lady Greer’s pregnancy is false.  Her nipples are large; her belly is big; but there are no full mammary glands.  I also believe that Raven is not pregnant.  I am not sure about Lily yet.  However, with all these negative outcomes, I have bred Merlin with Isabella.  They could produce any color.  Merlin (black) has a grandsire that is a red wheaten.  Isabella has a granddam (Gracie) that is a silver brindle.  There will be some matings with my young Scotties late fall or winter.  I am disappointed for all those waiting patiently for one of my Scotties.  There will be other litters but later this year.

Fiona’s puppies give me a holler when I pick them up.  Fiona is ever watchful and doesn’t like for me to move them.

Annie’s bloodwork was good for all enzyme levels.
