3 Full Days This Morn

Here is the gallery.

The pups continue to do well. Dennis even napped for a bit and they all gained. He was extra tired and I told him I believe they will be fine. He will hear them if they squeak as he is right next to the pen. Usually he is not able to do this till week 2ish. I suspect that Raven's pups will start out smaller so the night of naps will be over - even if mini naps. We shall see. That's my guess as that is the usual. These pups started out of size which helps them strength wise etc. 

Pups have really wonderful heads. They are pretty pups. They are vocal when they want mom and sleep when they don't. The temps inside the pen is a balmy 83f so they don't have to pile up unless they want a comfortable pillow. I am impressed with them. 

Today I gave them this felt mat that has pieces sticking up so they can feel as if they have comfort surrounding them. I have to find the lady that makes them (can't remember what they are called) as I wouldn't mind having her make some the size of the whelping box. They seem to love them. 

Stormy's bowels and discharge is returning to normal (fast) and she seems to be very happy. I was playing with her this morning and we were rolling all over the floor with me rubbing her up and then she would keep coming back for more. I believe moms need balance. It is so important that they enjoy and not see it as all work. We seem to be able to create a balance and the dogs love us for it. Happy moms make for happy pups.

Be sure to check out the videos. As they get older and start walking it gets even more interesting.

Love Stormy. She is perfect. The pups are so sweet. We are so fortunate that we found Talemakers I knew the first time I spoke to Nathan that we would be getting one of your pups. Your love and affection shows up every day in my handsome Rusty.
