There is no way to say no to a face like this.Matope, one of Nick & Lynne's giant heifers they lovingly call "dogs," had 13(!) puppies the day Alicia and Claire arrived in Korr. We didn't even know she was pregnant!
There are several guesses as to who the baby daddy is...but for now, the 10 remaining puppies are holed up in Nick & Lynne's guest house, free to play with at any time :) The Rendille ALL want them as guard dogs (as in, there are 22 people who want 10 puppies), which is comical to me, because Tigger and Matope are about the friendliest and silliest dogs you'll ever meet. Case in point: on a walk we took last Sunday evening, Tigger came across a Rendille puppy that was literally the size of his face - and when the puppy tried to play with him, Tigger BOLTED the opposite direction with his tail between his legs.
Eh well. At least if Tigger's the father we know they'll all be lovable...
Whaaa? Matope had PUPPIES??? Erm, so much for that shot we gave her. And also? If Tigger's the father, they're gonna be some interesting puppies... genetics, much? EW! And CUTE! Good heavens.
ReplyDeleteOh... and also... "giant heiffers" - HA! Love it!
