Ms Rose you were right on the money with your prediction!!!

We just got back from the vet & boy are we going to have a nice large family.. 5 puppies! I got pics of the xrays & I am trying to get them up, as soon as I do I will post them! Vet says I shouldnt have to worry about the C-section, unless its an emergency- but thinks everything should be ok... I think I feel better but I know momma is gonna to have a long labor poor baby!!! So the countdown begins... day 55, her mom gave birth at day 57, could she be close to her moms due date? Is that possible?
