| Puppies coming!! We're so excited that the time is finally coming..... we gave Stormie the "deluxe bath treatment" this weekend - meaning she got to get in my big tub and get shampoo, conditioner, blow-dry treatment, the whole works. Then I shaved down her belly (this time she's got her thick winter coat) and got her all settled in her whelping area indoors. She's a content little mama-to-be! The only thing she's not crazy about is the "taking of the temperature thing". We're expecting the pups at the end of the week. Can't wait!!

| Thanks! I learned SO much for her first litter last year just by reading in the breeders forum on here. Lots of great info here...... even though I don't use it for Tatum, Stormie is benefitting from it.

| Babies are here!! Stormie had 5.... 3 girls, 2 boys - born yesterday morning. And her temperature was always within 98-99 all week. Guess that temp thing may not work for us like Debbie Jensen says. She did awesome.... all born within an hour, with the last one being breech but she did great. She's quite proud of her brood. Weird thing is there are 4 blacks and 1 red merle. That was a bit surprising since she had a wide mixture of colors her first litter. This is the most blacks that the stud has ever thrown also. He's a red tri. The people on our waiting list are not unhappy though.... apparently that's a great color to have. It's hard to see where each black one is in the picture but here they are......

I really had a gut feeling when I left the house but really didn't feel like I had much choice about work. Should have listened to my gut and saved the gas and time and frustration. But all ended well! And yes, she is SUCH an awesome caring mommy that although we weren't planning on a third litter, we think we might do this one more time.

| Congratulations to you and Stormie! What beautiful babies. I can only imagine how happy your hubby was to see you but sounds like he did a great job.
