Hi Everyone! I love comming here to look at all the pups! My Mum has been looking at some BostonX pups (crossed with miniature poodle). I have a couple questions I thought maybe some of you could help us with. The pup she has fallen in love with (that has more boston like characteristics) has a hurniated umbilical cord. Have any of you dealt with this before or know anything about it? I've heard that it can be easily fixed when he goes in for a nuter, but I wanted to see if any of you have first hand experience with it. Also, is it just an old wives tale that the more black a dog has in its mouth, the smarter it will be? Or is there any truth to this? Thanks for any help you can offer! EDIT: I have added a pic of my mum holding the pup!
