The puppies had their first venture outside today. They did great!
First time outside
Starting to play!
The puppies’ eyes are open and they are starting to have short bursts of play. So cute to watch them wobble around and start to play with each other!
Lots and lots of pictures available at 2014 Litter.
Puppies starting to open eyes
Puppies are 10 days old today and we can start to see some little peepers opening.
Puppies Doing Great
Day three and the puppies are all gaining weight and doing well. We started the Bio Sensor program tonight.
With the help of my boys and my mom, we named the puppies alphabetically in birth order (well, for the c-section group, we made up the order):
Puppies arrived!
We have nine healthy babies! The first five were born in the wee hours of the morning, June 25th. The next four came via c-section several hours later.
3 mantle males
2 mantle females
2 piebald males
2 piebald females
Mom & babies are all doing great!

We had an x-ray done on Monday, the 16th, and saw 7-8 babies!

And, a poor quality image, but a sweet shot of Kizzy and our feline family member, Oliver:
Kizzy Pregnancy Progression – Day 41
Kizzy at Day 41:
I think she looks huge already. Went through some old pictures of her mom, Skyy, while pregnant (with Kizzy!) and found a Day 41 image of her:
Have an x-ray scheduled for June 16th, which will give us an idea of how many babies Kizzy has in store for us.
Pregnant Kizzy
Decided to forgo an ultrasound, based on an already obvious growing belly!
Ever modest, below is a normal position for Miss Kizzy. I think she is trying to bake the babies in the sun!
