I do not know how many puppies to expect, as we gave up on taking x-rays after her third litter. They were always incorrect and seemed to cause more fear and anguish than actually helping. Of course I always take them in for their first pregnancy to make sure that there isn't a problem. She has consistently had four puppies with each of her pregnancies, so I am assuming that she will have the same. Although she really is pretty big this time, especially compared to Lily who is just ten days behind on the due date. Lily hardly looks like she is pregnant at all.
Penny is looking pretty bad this morning and she appears to be as tired as I am... and she is digging quite a bit. She also refused her breakfast...which for Penny is huge. Ha!
I'm hoping, more for her sake than mine, that she has them soon.
How about Stormy? Do you know how many she is expecting? |
Well it really looks like things are really looking up for you to be having puppies today.
Stormy isn't doing any digging, which I thought she would be by now. She has the real fast, short breathing and more discharge. She was having contractions during the night because I could feel them. They were every 7 minutes for an hour and I stopped feeling for them after that. She's had several more this morning because she would come walking to me with those sad eyes and I could see her tummy and feel it. It was hard as a rock.
I didn't have her xrayed. The vet palpated her early in the pregnancy when the puppies were about walnut size. He said 3, maybe 4. I think 4, maybe 5 but then again look how right I've been on her having them already
I'll keep checking for updates but I believe you are going to be busy today
