    6th week of pregnancy

    Giving an update we have puppies. We had to do a c-section there were 3 large puppies. So we thought doing a c-section would be better for mom and puppies. She had to stay overnight but she is home and we have to bottle feed because mom is not making enough milk.

    We are expecting mostly black and tans but it's really hard to know we bred her to a blue color boy and the mom has history of blue so we could get any color puppy. I will definitely post pics as soon as she has them :)

    6th week of pregnancy

    Ok she only has a few more days left I guess there is no harm in continuing her on wet food. I was just a little worried that the wet food isn't as healthy as the dry food but I worry a lot about them anyways :)
