Golden Retriever mom gets to see her puppies grow up after her owner gave one to each of her friends

These adorable photos show a Golden Retriever mother-of-ten surrounded by her brood at puppy pre-school - after her owner gave each of the dogs to one of her friends.

Owner Charlotte Bastedo, 57, decided to keep the new arrivals close when Tuesday, three, fell pregnant earlier this year.

Instead of housing them with strangers, the dog lover asked her pals whether they were looking for a puppy - and the answer was yes.
