PUPPIES - The "C" litter has been CONFIRMED! [WARNING-IMAGE HEAVY]

[draggar]

It's possible - we're giving her until 5:00 to see if any more come out.

i may have adopted my claire after lost started but she was not named for the lost claire.
I wanted Kerry or Gus my sister wanted something girllier it became Claire.

I said it before and I'll say it again.

PUPPIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[draggar]

I'm going to see if I can get the puppy cam up today.

On a side note, if I decide to get a new webcam, does anyone have any suggestions? Mine is quite old (Creative Video Blaster Webcam 3 or something like that)?

Edit:

This is how out of it I am now.

I had Kiri's pedigree up in one tab and her first title is SG-1 (Sieger non-titled first place rating). A few minutes later I saw the tab and thought "When was I looking up a Stargate site?"

I need to sleep some more.

OK, one quick question: what the heck is the purpose of a durawhelp? (I have never owned a female pet, so forgive me)

Also, pups look very cute.

[draggar]

It's a whelping box. (That's the short answer).

Here's the not-as-short:

It's a whelping box made of corrugated plastic (like corrugated cardboard) with built in pig rails.

A whelping box is something to help the mother give birth to her puppies and also to contain the puppies from going where they shouldn't go. You can also put blankets etc.. in the bottom (like we have).

A pig rail is along the sides - that's a piece that sticks out so if the mother tries to roll over or lie down the puppies will get pushed under them so they don't get crushed.

A few more pictures from today (and my wife in the whelping box):

Hehe! The little crossed back feet in the third pic...so prim and proper!

Mom looks so proud in this one

They remind me of my friend's mom's dog's puppies...they're Bassett Hound/Black Lab mixes but they had the same coloring...most were all black, a couple were black with the brown facial markings...and the last was blonde...

Her paws aren't crossed in that one - you can see the other one under her chin (but yes, she normally does sit like that).

And also, yes, she's always happy.

Here are some recent pictures of Pepper (Athena):




What a bitch!

Hold and bark - with her ears up.

Her paws aren't crossed in that one - you can see the other one under her chin (but yes, she normally does sit like that).

I meant the baby in the bottom center of the pic.

[draggar]

I see that now.

It's official - some of this money will go to have her shipped to Europe to be fully Schutzhund trained (BH, SchH, plus some non-schutzhund titles) by a friend of a friend.

It always amazes me how fast dogs grow. Seems just like yesterday Athena was born.
