Over a Day Old

Here is the gallery.

Look at this pup already attempting to get up on his legs. What a strong one you are.

Momma Yoshi is doing well. She is eating a ton. She must with 6 pups. She still doesn't have her milk in fully. But they are slightly gaining or holding their own. No one is losing so that is a good thing! All pups are doing well. Their weight gains other than the 2 large ones will be less dramatic than Nami or Hallies. They will be smaller pups. 

Dennis was so exhausted that he said he fell asleep last night from 4amish to 7amish. Still, no losses. He is back in bed so hopefully he will be able to stay awake tonight or I will do night duty and that interrupts with my sessions with the older dogs. When I do night duty, I stay awake every single minute. I purposely do not sit down. I do all the things like laundry, dishes being placed down, dog food bowls filled and set up. I just do. Hoping his body plays catchup. 

The littlest gal is a strong gal as she moves all over the place. One pup appears brown not black. We have tan points on some and the black and whites seem to have strong black. They are really nice looking pups. 

I have held them all much to the nervousness of Yoshi. I weigh them and have to block her as she puts her snout in the scale skewing the weights. This is new momma naturalness that will pass. She does get out of her pen to eat. She doesn't want Nami and Hallie in here as they go right in the whelping box to move and lick the pups and I imagine that doesn't feel comfortable to her till they are older. This is normal.

All pups appear strong and viable and she so loves them already.

Be sure to check out the shorts. Plus the main directory of the videos here.
