It has been a very odd and long whelping . It seems that almost every puppy born had a very short umbilical cord . To help you visualize it, Penny was flush with each puppy with no umbilical cord to be seen...except for one puppy that just whooshed out.
Okay, the final count goes like this:
Male 4.0 ( yep a biggie) born 8:36
Male 3.2 born 9:11
Male 3.1 born 10:25
Male 3.8 born 10:28
Male 4.0 ( another biggie ) born 11:15 ( this was whooshie)
Female ( FINALLY) 4.0 born 11:25
Penny is doing wonderfully and I am so proud of her. She is exhausted, but so happy to be with her puppies.
