 One out, one to go!
Hi everyone!
At 4:45pm PST Lucy gave birth to a healthy cute little boy puppy! The first few minutes were somewhat nerve racking. There was one dry paw sticking out...and that was it! She continued to have contractions and the rest of the puppy followed within minutes. Lucy would not leave the umbilical alone after 15 or 20 minutes. She was chewing and pulling on it. I was worried she would give the puppy a hernia or something. There also were some traces of blood coming from the puppies umbilical. I eventually tied it with dental floss and have been keeping her away from it. Lucy is very loving and affectionate to the puppy.
We'll keep you updated on number two!
