Dime has had her pups, after what seemed like the longest 1st stage of labour ever, she produced her 1st pup, a boy, at 9pm last night. Poor girl was a bit surprised when he arrived and she did panic for a few seconds, but then her maternal instinct kicked in and she breezed through the rest of the whelping.
There were a couple of worrying moments, 2 of the pups were slow to breathe, but with a little bit of assistance they were soon squeaking away and joining their siblings. Dime is a fabulous mum, attentive without being paranoid (although she did want to abandon her family this morning when she heard me put the others in the car for a walk!) and I have no doubt that her 6 pups will be beautifully brought up by her.
We have 3 girls and 3 boys, all these pups are already booked and I can only apologise to those who were further down the list and who have missed out this time. Some of you may want to consider having a blue baby from Nina, the father will be Cash. We hope to confirm her pregnancy at the end of this month.
The webcam followed the whelping last night, and will be on every day/evening for the next few weeks. Just go to the webcam page on the Itzapromise website, or go direct to Justin TV and look up Itzapromise.
