She Did It

Click on Photo for Larger ViewWe are early - 1st possible date was Thursday. Good thing we set up last night. I was up late and then never got to sleep. After the last puppy was born, I cleaned off Misty - who was a mess. I threw all the towels in plus the blanket which the pup was born on last night. Nathan carried Misty and the pup downstairs so no videos if him being born but we got what we could. You should have heard me - puppy is born now. Let's go.

Here is the gallery.

I am trying to regroup but I will get the videos up shortly. Misty kept going after the cords and Nathan had to keep pushing her away. My video prg keeps dying. I imagine it is due to the latest ios and no replacement for it. 

With Nathan pushing Misty away from biting the cords, it wasn't being mean but rather making sure she didn't bite them too closely. This is all natural. We didn't have vanilla ice cream for calcium nor baby Bell. Nathan has to go get some. We have Sage too and we need her to get calcium. I tried grinding up a tums but she was having none if it. She is sleeping now.

Pups are all eating and finding mom. I try to make the littlest get one of the bottom stations where most milk is but all are lively.

I am trashed. No day off for Dennis today nor me tomorrow. Till next year. I imagine tonight I will crash as after Nathan naps, Dennis will.

Not even sure anyone has noticed we had pups. I had to telll a couple of people. Misty had her own schedule. Now to upload videos.

Thank you, Mary Lot - 7 pups :-0

Victoria - yes to both! Lively and vocal if they want to eat lol

Sherry - early too so only Sage fir xrays. Thank you for the blankets! Much needed. Need to go to consignment shop to find baby quilts but these are gorgeous. Caught Misty laying on memory foam pillow.

Thank you Angela - not enough with nice markings these days like your Patches

Thank you, Patt!

Misty's 1st litter all black and white, this time looks like same colouring. Guess we'll all recognize a Misty puppy in the future, and she saved you an xray fee, good girl🤣
What a lovely bunch of healthy puppies😘

October 26, 2021 | Unregistered CommenterDorothy,Tom,Pixie and Leo

Dorothy: I tell people it only takes the right timing and all you need is 1 connection. Some of them have sable bleeding through. It's going to be interesting. Saving the XRay fee - bonus - cost of that scale that won't come till Wednesday. I guess Sage will have the benefit of that. Bulbs didn't come in for heatlamps but we have a system on them when they go out we get alerted. So far it's keeping the pups toasty. Not many black and whites these days so I am happy to have black and whites. You can always see them across the way.
