She Had 5 In There!!!

Can you believe it? I figured four – but nope! FIVE!!! It started at 10:30 this morning with her begging to be back upstairs. She worked on moving them down until around 3:30 pm, when the pushing commenced. Ya gotta love Ginny! Only an hours worth of pushing and the first pup was here! A black spotted on white boy (with possible tan points) arrived with his brother not far behind. 16 minutes later, his sabled fawn spotted on white brother was born – Both in the 4.5 ounce range and anxiously nursing from the get-go. They were actually nursing when the first female was born. Our 4 1/4 ounce solid white sweetie arrived at 5:07 pm and boy, she’s a...

Ya Think She’s Ready?

Ya Think She’s Ready?

I love Ginny so much and for so many reasons. One of which is because whelping with her is such a breeze!   She knows the routine and is so laid back about the whole thing. Over the last few days, she has totally POPPED and I am sure we have more than three in there. Carrying that extra load must be exhausting! So much so that this afternoon, she begged to get let upstairs – the location of our guest bedroom/whelping suite. She nested and paced around the room for a bit – as if checking everything out to make sure it’s set up to her liking – and then she plopped onto the floor to rest. She napped up there for a few hours and then back down...

A Bunch Ya Think?

Ginny has reached day 58 of her pregnancy and it seems as though she has doubled in her wide-load load in the last week. I knew she was having a large litter. When I say large, I mean more than two. But looking at her stretch herself out today, it is quite apparent that we have at least four! The excitement of seeing the results of Ginny and Goody’s breeding is immense but now to know there will be 4+ to drool and watch grow up –...

Ginny Is With Pup

Just like clockwork, she enters the 6th week of her pregnancy and she pops! She cuddled up next to me last night, belly exposed, as if telling me “Feel um??” She’s such an awesome mommy to be!

All Before The Clock Struck 12

My first guess was right! Colada begged to go upstairs to the whelping suite around 8:30 pm tonight. All I could do was hope and pray she cooked um long enough. In addition to her non-textbook whelpings, she also has Stage Two habit that I really don’t know if it is more nerve-wracking on her or me. She goes into this major panic mode where she begs to be in my bedroom. Not just in my bedroom but in my BED! The last time, she started to pushed a puppy out on the floor in front of the door so tonight I was prepared for her nonstop door pacing and lined the area with pads and towels. She must have gotten the hint because she actually hopped back into the whelping...
