Hi Everyone - sorry it has taken so long to update you all. Zoey ended up having 4 babies all together but we lost one little girls that was under an oz. She now has 3 babies - 2 boys who weighed in at 2 1/2 ozs and 3 1/2 ozs at birth. Her little girl weighed in at just a little over 3 ozs. They are now 8 days old. Her labor was pretty tough on her -but she was a trooper. With her 3 babies - she has been a terrific mom. I was pretty nervous when I took them in to have the vet to their tails and dew claws - but the pups came through the procedure and settled right down with mom. Zoey was very concerned with their wounds when the vet brought the pups back out to her. Fortunately she has forgiven me for putting them and her through that. That short separation was awful for Zoey. They have more than doubled in weight and it has been fun watching her with the pups. We are now very excited for when they open their eyes and start interacting with the world. I have had some trouble trying to get some pictures uploaded but will work on it. Thank you to all for your well wishes.
