Once more unto the breach dear friends....

Yep, Della is once again with pups. We took her to CCI for confirmation today. Both my 7 and 13 yo sons were fascinated by the ultrasound pictures. I didn't post earlier about her breeding because there was some question about whether the breeding took ( the boy had some probs the other time he was bred and Della had no morning sickness) and didn't want to get everyone's hopes up until I was sure. She was bred to new breeder Pirie, a yellow lab, so it will be a monotone litter this time around. I also found out while at CCI that Della's 1/2 sister, Litney, was up being bred, so their mom's B/C (and Litney's) will be having pups a month after we will!! Tentative due date for Della is August 8th. This means: a) Ashley will have over a month with the pups before she goes back to UCD, and b) David will be whelping alone as Ashley and I will be in Denver for the World Science Fiction and Fantasy C0nvention (anyone out there going?). Hope he took good notes the last 2 times!! ;-)
