Its getting closer

Friday, May 21st, 2010

Well Kali is due on Tuesday.  We are all getting ready for the pups to arrive and we are all excited - what will they be, yellow or black, male or female.  No way to know until they are here!

Sneakers on the other hand has these little bump outs on each side - 1 big pup on each side or several little ones.  Yesterday I had my hand on the bump and I think I felt it moving.  I know those will all be yellow but male or female, we will just have to wait, longer for her than for Kali of course.

In the meantime we are getting ready to put these pups up on the web.  Maybe this time we will try ustream - I don’t like the ads but maybe we can get rid of those.  If not, maybe we will go back to marestare again.  Will have to wait and see.  Tomorrow I will drag out the house camera, which is a Linksys internet camera, where I can keep an eye on the pups within the house.

All is ready.  Now we just need the pups to appear on the scene!  Since they are both first time moms we will have to wait and see how they adjust to their babies.

Puppies Galore

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

Well we sure are having puppies at Robnie -  with Kali due May 24th and Sneakers due June 8th.  Lucky that Kali’s owner is going to be raising those pups and here in our house we will just be raising Sneakers pups.  but since Kali lives only a few blocks away, we will be doing many things together or in parallel.  and maybe when they are both weaned we will put the litter together and have mass chaos!  We shall see if that idea remains after the first few weeks of puppies!

The pups will be on MareStare for sure so you all can watch them 24/7.

Sneakers has sure been acting weird.  She wants to cuddle all the time.  She is more tired than usual and her playful self has morphed into being a more reflective self.

Today I ordered some stuff for the pups - more playpens, more toys, more benebac etc.  Instead of linoleum under the whelping box I am going to use those rubber mats - we shall see how that works.  Going to go to EBay to find some more Elmo’s and the like as the pups love them.

I also bought an inexpensive artificial grass system.  I think I will probably stick with my sod box idea but I will have that for backup.

This is going to be fun!
