Today has been a very busy day.
Not only did Lulu bless us with 9 beautiful puppies ( 7 boys, 2 girls) but we were also blessed with our granddaughter today.
All before 3am .......
We will be reaching out to families on our wait list once we catch up on some sleep.
We tag teamed it so Brian whelped the puppies while I was at the hospital waiting the arrival of Josie. Today Taylor Rynda stayed with the pups so Brian and I could head to the hospital to spend some time there together. Then Brian relieved Taylor so she and Jake could head to hospital.
Raising puppies is not something that can be done without supervision, hands on care 24/7. Especially the first few weeks when it's so easy for Mom to lay on a pup, and the weight of each pup being monitored throughout the day to make sure puppies are nursing and getting what they need. The first 2 days we let mom get in her grove, and we lay low on handling to much except to weight and make sure latching etc. But day 3 we start ENS , INS, desensitizing, and so many things throughout the 8 weeks we have them.
Sofie is due in about 4 days so the fun and chaos is just beginning. We are ready and can't wait!
