Gracie, that flirty little English Bulldog across the road, is going to have puppies soon. Mum was talking to Gracie’s parents and they said that she was being put to stud with a dog that her breeders have found for her. Gracie is the dog who would not stop giving me butt sniffs when she came to visit, so they will have their hands full with her. They are hoping for eight puppies and Gracie’s Mum has to watch her closely when the pups are born to make sure she does not sit on them! Anyway that is what it says in the books.
