Xylo’s (Ziylo) coloring is just a bit lighter than Xola’s.  I guess she liked mama’s foot better than her milk!girls (8)

 Xue (Zoo) is the light one in the bunch.

 Getting a meal right beside their day house!  These puppies are really special – their “puppy pen” is in our dog “hotel” but on the warm days, they get moved out to their cool house under the shade near the spring!
