What a trooper of a Mom!

The puppies are getting cute and busy!  

 The babies are growing!  We are feeding Diva as much as we can, so she can keep up.   The babies are also eating puppy food along with the Goats Milk!  Gaining and healthy as can be!
We will do some 4 week old shots this upcoming weekend.

The babies are doing awesome!

Well the pups are doing great, they are just over 2 weeks old and have already had their first meal on Sunday.   With that many (7) we decided to feed them a meal of mush and goats milk.  Well you can imagine what they looked like after, here are some shots of their "first time"



 This is the smallest of boy and girls, they were in there right away, which i knew would happen, these are always the 2 im worried about not getting enough!
 I think we need Diva for clean up duty!
Sometimes you just gotta go for it  All in!!!

Diva's babies have Arrived! Happy Easter

There was so much going on this week, i had it all planned out that i would drive Gossip (Our Finnish Lapphund) to Fargo ND, put her on a plane to Chicago to meet Gloria, and be shown at their "National".   Well i'd been taking Diva's temperature all week, and before i left for work Thursday am, it was REAL low! like lower than i had seen before in any pregnant ready girl.  Sigh............... a few phone calls to find other plans for Gossip and off she went with my Mom & Dad who wanted a quick trip to Fargo anyway s.    Diva was going to be pretty early, since her first due date was Sunday, and in my head her REAL due date was Tuesday.
She started her labour in the middle of the night.   At 5:40 her water broke & first puppy 40 mins later.  We were done by 9 am!  7 Babies in total!
"Diva" is a great mom, and is just the most tentative, we actually carry her out to potty so she will leave them a minute.  Proud Dad is "Rush"


 These are the 4 girls, one girl was very small but has gained huge since she was born, can barely tell

Here are the boys, there is also a small boy but he's managed awesome and is gaining along with his bigger brothers.
HAPPY EASTER everyone!
