Maddie delivered 8 healthy, beautiful puppies. It was a long day with puppy watch starting with a drop in temperature on Wednesday night and a second lower temp on Thursday morning. For a while, it didn’t seem like anything was happening. She didn’t have the typical panting, restlessness, etc. like we have seen other dogs exhibit and her first litter was…Oh, it’s time! Talk about two totally different prelabor and delivery experiences with her.

Late afternoon things started to progress, but I kept telling her…go ahead, let’s pop these puppies out! Our first puppy, the blue collar black male was delivered at 6:15 PM. Time between puppies varied A LOT! Some came quick after each other and others not so quick, but we are more than thrilled with the group of healthy puppies.

Stay tuned as I update progress as it happens!
