Hi Jessica,
We have two 3 day old puppies, one of them is labelled as a collie. Both are
male. Unfortunately, we don't seem to have any hind limbs!

Are you going to ICAZ? You should think about a paper for the dogs session
if you are not already! The deposit sounds fantastic.Also I probably have
some stuff on Roman ritual uses of dogs if you want, but nothing
specifically about ritual shafts.

Subject: [ZOOARCH] Neonate and foetal dog remains
Dear all,
I would like to know if there is any literature on foetal and/or neonate dog
remains (other than Habermehl 1975) as I have another set of seven or eight
dogs from the ritual shaft site. Or does anyone have a foetal or neonate dog
of known age and breed of which GL of the long bones can be taken. From the
site I have at least four different types of dogs with heights at the
withers of about 24, 33, 45 and 51 cm. This does not seem to reflect sexual
dimorphism as I have males in all groups (I have over 30 nearly complete
dogs now). As to be expected, the different types are reflected in the
neonate and/or foetal remains as well.
Your help with this is very much appreciated!
Cheers, Jessica
