Getting Ready
Tuesday, January 15, 2019 at 8:58AM There are so many things to get ready and we are most likely less than 2 weeks away. Nathan wants to go out to Red Lobster. LOL so we go with our son Jon on Wednesday. Dennis hates seafood. The things we do before we can't.
Dennis will sleep in his bed most likely for a week and sleep at night. That treat doesn't last, I am afraid.
We have to buy a new heat lamp. We only have 2. I need to order today as they come from the states. They do not sell them here. Puppies need warmth.
I have to also by 1 more Foscam camera and 3 Gorrillapods to hold the cameras. I have 1 other Foscam I can use from the setup for the Stormy pups and 1 older not as great resolution for another giving me 3 cameras for the new moms. The gorrillapods hold the cameras.
As these are not their 1st litter I may not use a whelping box but instead a small setup. I need the space too. When Stormy and Raven's depart, we can expand. Out will come my recliner leaving only the couch for Dennis to sleep on.
The 3 litters will be approx 4 weeks old when they take over this room leaving them soon to go upstairs at night.
It's going to be a crazy house but we will take the summer off. We did this thinking we would eliminate our waiting list but still people want to wait - significant number actually so we will have pups available from these litters. Who would have thought. A first...
I am excited to have the summer off. I can work on my garden, swim and get significant projects done and start doing some fun training in and out of the pool. We will think litters fall on. It depends on heats.
Xrays are next in less than a week and a half. As they are due so close, we will me meshing the 3 litters.

Heat lamp on way via USPS - otherwise UPS charges extra duty - no lie.
Gorilla pods arrived tonight - Amazon is so great and I got a no name for 14.99. I didn't have high hopes. Just needed them to work. Great quality. Best Buy is 59.99 each. I screw in the camera and wrap it around the top of teh xpen to hold the camera in place.
Foscam camera ordered. Should have it this week as they are local.
Getting ready. I also measured in here. Going to be a tight fit as the older pups will have the big area to run.

Oh Darlah, you shoudn’t let me know you might have pups available. 😂😂😂😂
Angela hahahaha
I am so surprised that families are waiting. It would be almost three months from now when they take the puppy home and it is spring. The best time for training. If only, I am dreaming about another too Angela.
