She weighed 1 lb. 2 oz at birth and was calm and relaxed on the scale.

She is super quiet and very chill. So calm, in fact, that I had to check her breathing. She was, but she seemed quite limp and loose, although it appears to be because she is calm. She cleared her airways by hacked up the phlegm instead of crying out or making any noise. I have yet to hear her, much like Tsar. She looked around with her head slightly in a slow rhythm. At this point, this puppy will not be for sale. She appears to be my anticipated "Hope Diamond." But, let's see how she develops to make sure we have all of the right temperament traits for the breed's future development.
