We may look tiny in size at birth, but we are 11-12 oz and each one of us will be a nice size. We will double that weight by 1 week old. Our eyes will open in 2 weeks. Love, the puppies
I always let my human mom know that I am getting ready to have the puppies 20-24 hours in advance with lots of panting and digging on my dog bed. So mom slept with me half the night and checked on me frequently. At approx. 7:30 am this morning, my first two puppies came within 20 minutes of each other and the rest in approx. 30 minute segments until lunch. I had 3 males and 2 females this time, much to my mom's surprise. All of these puppies are reserved. The five pups are currently about the same size and beautiful with cream and apricot colors. I love each one all the same.
Grandma Daisey and Frankie the poodle are not allowed to come near the whelping box for now. I spend lots of time licking, feeding and keeping the puppies secure and warm. Puppies' favorite positions for sleeping is under my head in the crook of my neck or nestled in my tail, near my bottom. They also like to sleep in a puppy pile when I need to take a break for potty or self-nourishment. I am a little bedraggled in the pics. Mom will give me a bath tomorrow and brush and pamper me. I am receiving lots of petting and praise as I take such good care of my puppies.
Lots of Love, Sandy
