Puppy Countdown...Let The Fun Begin

Well it's Saturday and the dogs are all starting to gather. Seems like they know when Carly's due too. She delivered early last time, so we are on "Official Puppy Watch". We will assemble the crate today, and get the whelping box ready too. Puppies are fun, but alot of work is involved when you breed your dogs.
Here's Shiloh and Tucker guarding Carly. She's been wandering around the house, restless as can be. She's starting to be in mommy mode.
The Queen of our herd, Granddog Patty, sits by Nana's legs..just keeping tabs on what's going on. She was a great helper to Carly when the last litter was born. Patty would bark when ever a puppy cried...and helped clean them too. She's been sleeping in the kitchen, where all the action will take place, she isn't going to miss a thing.

And Uncle Shiloh still squeezed in a game of fetch..he loves to chase a ball, a toy, anything that can be thrown. He gets so much attention, that he never gets jealous...he only gets excited if his ball or toy is missing....goes around the house until it's found.

And our daughter's dog, Tucker, is helping himself to our grandson's boppy pillow. He can't be bothered by all this fuss. He has to keep a eye on our grandson while his mommy and daddy are away for a vacation. Hey Tucker, make yourself right at home son...you are Carly's brother..you could act a little excited.

So we made it to the weekend before the puppies come...we will try and keep everyone updated..Carly seems in the 3-4 puppy size, but I still feel like 5 puppies will be coming..whatever is safe for her. Wish us luck and we will write in the blog as soon as we get started...guess we will be sleeping in our track shoes, ready to run at a moments notice.
