Sables always seem to have a lovely relaxed personality Ive found - but they also seem to grow quite large in my experience too!

Glad Beaver is settling in well, she is a beauty

Beaver is lovely and seems to be settling in very well. Is she deffinately only 12 weeks? I would have said she looked a little older personally!

The total head count now stands ( and will remain! ) at 7 Julie!!

Yes she is incredibly soft and laid back,a real pleasure to have!

With regards her age, I can only go by what the petshop told me, they wrote her D.O.B down and everything, but who really knows? I saw the other 3 litter mates and that's all I can say,'spect she's big because it was a small litter?
Got her a savic roly to be going on with, and bless her little heart, she's keep fitting it already

Ive just checked on my weight charts Keri, and my sable, Sabine, was 182g at 11 weeks, so that could well be right. Here sister, a sable roan was 157g at the same age!

Sabine was just remarkably laid back and lazy and loved her food from the moment she was born! So I have a feeling the pet shop gave you the right information

Gosh!! Well, we'll have to see if the wheel sheds any weight for her or if she is just " big boned",lol.
I have to say her large size coupled with the fact that I have a bit of a soft spot for sables,with Chloe being our first and all, had a lot to do with my diminished willpower! She's just so lovely to hold, I feel like that cartoon character, " I just wanna love you and kiss you and hug you and squish you.....",lol.

You hit the nail on the head Keri - there is something delightfully squishy about sables - I always want to bury myself in their fat and blow raspberries on them
