Some Night Shots of Our Dogs

I recently paid a nighttime visit to our kennels - and I don't think our dogs appreciated it. Some gave me dirty looks. Some came out of their houses - reluctantly. Some would not come out. But all had sleepy eyes.

Two Day Old Blue Pups

Here's some pictures taken of the new puppies yesterday - just two days old.

It's Final - 9 Blue Pups

She finished - the 4:25 little boy was the last one. So she has 4 little boys and 5 little girls. I didn't take any new pictures yet, but I'm sure over the next weeks I'll take plenty.

Oops!

Oops - she's not finished yet. While I was inside posting she had another little girl, then at 4:25 she had another little boy. That makes four boys and five girls. And she may not be done yet.

Seven Blue Pups

At 6:45 this morning Halley's contractions started (after I had stayed up most of the night with her). Then at 8:45, the first blue pup was born (the one on the left). Ten minutes later, at 8:55, the second pup was born. They were both girls. I took these pictures with my cell phone camera, so the quality is not great.


At 10:20, the first boy was born. Why do they always try to crawl back where they came from?


Then twenty minutes later, at 10:40, another girl was born.

Almost an hour went by before the next one came - another girl at 11:30.

And then ten minutes later, at 11:40, another boy.

More than an hour went by, and Deanna brought home lunch. I took a 10-15 minute lunch break. When I went back at 1:15, Halley was cleaning no. 7, another little boy - I put him down for 1:10.

It's now 3:39 and she seems to have stopped. (But we are keeping our eyes on her.) She seems to have stopped at 7, the number of perfection - 3 boys and 4 girls - here they all are. Mother and pups resting comfortably.

Blue Puppies

Halley is now having her puppies. So far there are four girls and two boys - all blues. I'll have pictures to download as soon as she's finished. So come back later to see these gorgeous blue pups.

Halley is due at any time

Halley's anxiously awaiting her delivery time. Her due date is tomorrow, May 12, and she's ready to go.

Since we've lost several breeder girls for various reasons, Tasha being the most tragic loss, we've added a couple of older girls to our kennel.
