Tate is one of Lucy's babies.  He looks nothing like mommy, so I can only assume that Tate resembles daddy.  Tate is a lovely playful boy who really enjoys when the neighborhood children stop by.  He is going to make someone a great best friend.

Lucy is a Rotti/Shepherd mix, and our vet felt that daddy must have been a collie/lab mix based on the appearance of must of the puppies.  In fact, none of the puppies look like mommy.  Too be honest the pups look like they belong to our other mommy dog Tigger.  However, I delivered these puppies and can attest that they belong to Lucy.  Lucy came to us from Dumas Rescue in Kentucky.  She arrived here in Pennsylvania quite pregnant and delivered about six days later. The puppies have been wormed every week since they were two weeks old, they had a clean fecal test at 6 weeks of age and were vaccinated with their first Distemper Combo shot, they received a clean bill of health from our vet at 7 weeks of age and were microchipped.  Homeward Bound has prepaid the registration fee on the microchip for our adopters.
