Puppy Update

We are now at 8 puppies, we lost one sweet little boy. I have been up feeding puppies, they are growing and my sleep is deprived. They have all gained weight and are fat and happy. Cami is doing well, she has become a good momma. We have been trying to get her to spend some time with her family outside of the whelping box as she gets really hot and her behavior had become depressed. Since she has been spending some time away from the babies she has started to return to normal.

At this time, I have three puppies that I am looking at to have show potential. Two of them already have homes leaving one male that I would love to go to a home that would put him in the show ring. I will have to wait and see how they look as they keep growing.

And then there were Nine

The babies arrived this morning by way of c-section. All happy and healthy, Momma is doing well. She does not really care for her babies which could be due to the c-section, as the day has continued she has gotten better, we are hoping she will become a loving mother. On a side note... Our cattle dog is very attentive if he was a girl he would be a wonderful momma.

Last update before the puppies arrive!

Well, the doctor says there are only five puppies in there but I wouldn't be surprised if there end up being a few more. She has gained 20 pounds and that is a lot for only five puppies to be hanging out. Bullmastiffs carry their puppies in their chest as well as their belly and they don't x-ray the chest because they wouldn't be able to see anything there anyway. The vet told me I need to feed her more food so I have been offering her extra food during normal feeding times and through out the day, she just does not have the room to entertain more food in her belly.

Her whelping box is built, just need to get more newspaper to line it with. She has been in it several times and even brought her "baby" purple cow to the box. Now all that's left is washing bottles, buying goats milk and plain yogurt, and collecting a lot of newspaper.

Tuesday will be here before you know it...
