GE103 0 49134 313030 2018-02-05 NP0N   With G7644, Card # 548, but not her original pup. It was raised jointly by G9454 and G7644 after G7644 lost her own pup. P     P. Morris
GE103 0 49134 313518 2018-02-06 NP0N   Is with female 9454 but female 7644 is squabbling with her trying to reach the pup. This is a separate pup from the one marked 76 on LSh. Also has 2 blotches on top of its shoulders, P     P. Morris
