The puppy who has most consistently gained the most weight at the daily weigh-ins is a Very Special puppy around here. She is #8/Miss Navy on paper, but at our house she has been known since day one as "Fingertips" (by Ben) or "White Tips" (by Jason). In the giant pile of black puppies, she has always stood out, with her white feet and darling white-tipped tail. Since she has been the easiest by far to tell apart, and she has been the subject of the most conversation (e.g. "How's Fingertips doing today?"), and early on Jason predicted that IF a puppy ends up staying around permanently, then Ben and I will choose her. (I predict that is not true... check back at Christmastime to find out!)
Today she also had the distinction of being the first puppy to get a head and leg over in an attempt to climb out of the plastic pan they lie in after they get weighed (before they get back in the pool). This wasn't a big surprise to us, she has been a very spunky pup all along. Brains and beauty, what a gal.

So Allie, are you going to be able to adopt out some of these puppies to people you know who fall in love with them in the next couple of months? There is a lot of talk going around this household. :)
