saved the mother during the reason thunder storm. when rescued she was delivering her puppies. thank god she wasn't fierce. very good, friendly and playful. very well trained also because the only time she barks is when she needs to do her business and wants the gate to be open. saved her and her 2 puppies that night. but only one survived. later that night she delivered another 2 in my house. so i have a mother(brown), 2 black puppies and 1 brown for adoption.
