Pre-labour...waiting for puppies in the whelping pool. |
Northrock's A litter has arrived safe and sound. Yesterday, August 4th, 2012 we welcomed Coco and Dougy's puppies to the world. Active labour began around 2:15pm with Coco having a few small contractions which combined with squinty eyes and heavy panting gave me a pretty good feeling I would be seeing a puppy soon. At 2:25 Coco delivered her first pup. Mr. Blue arrived head first and weighed 10 1/4 oz. At 6:10pm puppy # 9, Miss. Maroon was born. Coco seemed to be finished and I cleaned up and moved the gang out of the pool and into the whelping box. I thank God for the ease of this whelping as all pups were born strong and healthy and are doing great.
