There are also some pics of the puppies on her website (where I got that one) but not many.

They're gonna be a handful. I'm so surprised that in the commercial, she called them kids again- last time she got so much heat from her viewers. I'm glad she means it and is serious enough to say f them, they are my kids!

What kind of puppies are there and where did she get them?? Don't tell me a petshop or breeder or I'll never watch her show again!!!
Just joking, I will watch her show but I do hope she rescued those puppies.

yeah, she does...they showed her introducing the new puppies to her other two dogs, with the help of some behaviorist. It was cute, but i think it would have been a lot cuter if she would have gone to the shelter and adopted her new family members instead

Saw it definately from a breeder.
She went to go get 2 and ended up begging steadman to take the one with the over bite cause the breeder said 'oh you don't want that one'. So oprah begged steadman to take the over bite one cause "she will be discrimated against and I can't have that" so she got three instead. Got give her soem credit for that one.

The other dogs names are sophie and solomon.

Though getting the pups from rescue may have been a good idea I think that someone who does so much for others should be able to decide to get her puppies from a breeder if that is what she wanted. It didn't look like she got them from BYB, puppy mill or pet store. All of the pups will have a great life but I think that she needs to go to training classes with all of them and not just bring in a trainer.
Oprah announced in that same show that she was donating 10 000 000 to the gulf coast to help rebuild, who else does that.

No matter how many people don't like her here, I always loved her. She is as genuine as they get on television.
