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...
