Born this morning... Leeloo, Luna, & Poppy.
We aren't sure which pup is which yet, we are waiting for their adoptive families to choose them before they get their official names.
Remi and her three girls are doing great. She's been licking and nursing them non-stop since they entered the world (see video of the last one being born below) between 3-7am today (4/16/23). They are well-loved!
All of the pups weighed between 9 and 10 ounces, and are so healthy. They all have some sort of Hagarty spot on their heads too. This is the first litter in a while (of Kingsley's) that didn't have a pup born with a heart somewhere on its body, but this is the first litter with Hagarty spots though.
In case you're wondering what a Hagarty spot is here's a definition according to ChatGBT - A Haggerty spot is a circular marking found on the heads of some Boston Terriers. It is named after the breeder Robert Haggerty, who first recognized and selectively bred for this trait in his dogs. The spot is typically located between the eyes and is usually a small, white, round spot with a diameter of about a quarter of an inch. The Haggerty spot is considered to be a desirable trait in Boston Terriers and is often sought after by breeders and enthusiasts. However, it should be noted that not all Boston Terriers will have this marking, and it is not a required or recognized trait by breed standards.
