I have a litter due August 17. This will be Diva's 2nd and last litter. Last year she had 2 puppies that weighed 2 ozs each at birth. One died at age 4days due to small size and neurological issues. The survivor is Teddy and at one year old he only weighs 2 lbs 3 ozs. This time we used a different stud with a great pedigree and breeding history. She is already much bigger this time around with 2 weeks still to go, so I'm thinking we are going to have 4 or more this time. I have 5 people actually wanting one of her puppies, so at least I have a great list of good homes to choose from. Our vet was unsure of how many were on the ultrasound and he doesn't like xrays unless he suspects a problem. He thinks 4 possibly 5.
Congrats to all the other puppy watchers. |
