Benjamin was the second puppy born at 07:48 AM., and started to feed almost immediately without prompting, .........and has not stopped since!!!. At 14 days old, Benjamin, (nicknamed Big Ben) is now the biggest of the litter, weighing in at 1lb 6 3/4Oz., and has also got his eyes open.

Now at 16 days old, Benjamin is walking strongly, and  weighs in at a massive 1lb 10Oz.

21 days old, and Benjamin is now really piling on the weight. At 2lb 2 1/4Oz, he has taken back his lead from Billy Boy, whom had briefly taken Benjamin's place. Benjamin has also got his teeth through, and his claws have become really sharp. He has become a very playful puppy.

Benjamin is still the heaviest puppy at 26 days old, now weighing a massive 2lb 12 1/4Oz. Benjamin's fur has still remained very white, unlike the other puppies in the litter, and it looks as though instead of becoming a blue roan, Benjamin may remain white with black patches.

29 days old, and Benjamin really lets us know that he has got a voice,.......a very load voice. (I'm gonna buy me a pair of ear plugs when I next go to the shops!). Benjamin really enjoys having cuddles, but what he enjoys most of all, is being first to the food bowl.

1st July, and Benjamin has got his new home when he is 8 weeks old.

At 6 weeks old, Benjamin is a big softy, he enjoys plenty of love and attention from us and he is very affectionate. Benjamin now has his official kennel club name as 'Shamrock Shore'.
