Both/all

Are they correct?

Father: I love my two kittens. Where are yours?

Daughter 1: Both mine are dead.

Father: I love all my puppies. Where are yours?

Are they all correct?

Thank you.

I'm not sure if "both mine" and "all mine" are incorrect, but "both of mine" and "all of mine" definitely sound better to me.

What a sad story!
