imported_Cassie Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Got your attention! :lol: :wink: My female Newf is pregnant (the breeders choice not mine :-? ) The reason for my topic is because we got such a laugh over this today...at the grooming shop we bathed Tori and carried her from the bathtub to the grooming table....we laughed when my boss stated that we were carrying 8 Newf's to a client who just came in...the clients eyes went kinda round :o we love to joke around quite a bit...keeps us sane. :wink: I have to shave her privates and her belly...wouldn't want to lose any pups in that coat :lol: I just had x-rays done...we can count 7 pups...there are probably more behind the other pups and up in the rib cage. The due date is this monday coming up...and I am whelping the litter. I will start on friday taking blood tests to check to see when her prgesterone levels drop...once they drop then we know we will have pups within 24 hours...this makes it so much easier when you know when to expect the pups... :D Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 Good luck! I hope everything goes smoothly for you. :D Quote
bk_blue Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 I hope it's a happy and uneventful pregnancy :D we will demand pics you know :wink: Quote
imported_Cassie Posted March 3, 2004 Author Posted March 3, 2004 I would love to ship a pup to you Newfiemom...but, I would have to hide it from the breeder...and sorry....it won't get registered :lol: the breeder has already warned me not to try to sneak any pups away from her :lol: All these pups are spoken for and the breeder is keeping one, the co-owner of the sire is keeping one (the breeder who owns my Newf co-owns the sire) it's so complicated :roll: who owns who...at least I can say that I am just a "home" for the dogs..I don't legally own 3 of my Newf's...once the breeder is finished with them then she will sign them over to me...my oldest girl was signed over to me when she was 5....this is how I figured out how to get a purebred dog free...make friends with breeders and become indispensable to them :lol: I don't pay for food, vet bills or any thing...I just have to give them my love :wink: both lines are certified for all genetic health issues including elbow dysplasia....ever since I found out one of my boys has ED the breeder is now making it some thing she is checking for. I will get tons of pictures and perhaps ellieangel will be so kind as to post them for me...for some reason I can't figure out how to post pictures on my own...my computer always gets a fatal error :-? I'll let every one know how it goes with the whelping....its my bitches first litter...this should be fun..not! the breeder would have been here to whelp the litter herself, but, she had already booked a couple of weeks away. The last litter she had last year was adorable...there is nothing cuter than pups just learning how to get around, and the curiosity they have. Quote
mouseatthebusstop Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 good luck with the litter--get your camera ready I am looking forward to the photos Quote
imported_Cassie Posted March 6, 2004 Author Posted March 6, 2004 A video would be cool... :wink: If I have a chance and there are no difficulties I might just take my camcorder and get a few shots....I don't have a digital camcorder, just the old style one. She will probably have the pups on Monday or Tuesday...she is not bagging up with milk yet and she doesnt seem to be digging or looking for the right spot yet...I have the perfect whelping area..the breeder is letting me stay at her house to whelp the litter while she is away...then when she comes back she will look after the pups and mom :D she has every thing for delivering a litter....thank goodness. I will get pictures of the pups... Quote
ellieangel Posted March 6, 2004 Posted March 6, 2004 How exciting I am looking forward to seeing those pups !! Of course I will post pics for you Cassie :wink: I know I have some you sent me I still need to put up sorry :oops: ,I will get onto it in the next couple of days :wink: Quote
