[Samsintentions]

Well guys, we're past 30 days and we just had another round of blood workd done, and next week we'll get an ultrasound. But she's getting HUGE fast!!! Here's a couple pics i took with my cell phone yesterday evening. When she was ready to kennel up she thought shed be slick and steal one of the giant candy cane rawhides I got on clearance at PetsMart, but NOOOO rawhide for her!! Was quite a tackle to get it away! LOL... Shes such a happy dog. Really loveable when pregnant. LOL I think she enjoys being a mommy. I'm not sure.

Anyway, here she is!!!


And i got a few with my digital of Byeboer being his usual goofy self. LOL Enjoy!!

Sara~ I think precious is in some of them too.....

OOh looks like you got a heavily pregnant girl on your hands there.
A good sign to tell if she is pregnant is is if boe is still interested in her sexually as she will still give off a similar scent.

But from the size of her she can not be having a phantom she way too big haha.
Well lets hope all is well and you got a good healthy litter on the way, I am getting excited now waiting for the news hahaha

I'm not letting her out with all the others. BUt they do sniff alot thru the kennels. I take her for walks and try to limit her activities. Shes definately very large. She gained 7lbs since her vet apoint ment 7 days ago. So far she's gained 14lbs, since bred. I haven't increased food much, just by a half a cup and its half puppy food. so i'm thinking lots of babies!!!

Shes relaxing behind me on the bed in my office. LOL... just being pampered and loved on.
She can't jump up so i had to help lift her. her tummy is too big! LOL

I agree i think your looking at a big litter, As she should not really be that big yet unless she is carrying then low down which the ultrasound will show.

I never increase food until the 5th-6th week into the pregnancy as the whelps are not taking much from her until then.

But you can see she is happy and content and she is in capable hands i just can not wait for the news from the scan on how many she is expecting i am so excited.

Me too!!
Well from what I was told her first litter was 10 i belive and her second was 13?? not sure exactly though.

If this is indeed a large litter, I'll more than likely end up spaying her after and retiring her.

[charmedagain]

I totally agree if she is having large litters like that it will really put a strain on her and its not worth putting her health at risk.

Oh i really can't wait for puppy pics.

My mum is planning on breeding Jess and i can have pick of the litter, But that will not be till next year

Keep me posted on all updates with vader, If she has a litter like she has in the past your looking at having a few sleepless nights and they are going to keep you very busy haha
