CCI Tomorrow
We will be headed up to CCI tomorrow for Della's ultrasound and I will post the news in the afternoon. I'm pretty sure she is pregnant as she's off her food, but it will be nice to get official confirmation.

Good News for the C's
When I took Della up to CCI to be bred, I asked if they knew how her first litter was doing. I am proud to report that a full 50% of Della's first litter have now graduated. Cecil, Cressie and Cinnamon are assistance dogs and Cyrano and Clifford are both hearing dogs. Congratulations to all their puppy raisers for their hard work and a job well done!!!

I am not dead yet..........................!(actually written 3/13/09)
Hi everyone!!
Well, I realize it has been quite some time since I last posted (last September for gosh sake!). I can only say that it has been crazy busy around here, starting with my youngest, Duncan, being hospitalized in October for pneumonia and continuing with my daughter's 15 1/2 yo dog dying unpleasantly in November. Then came the holidays and a new puppy between X-mas and New Year's. Then I got busy with rehearsals for a musical I was cast in with a slight interruption for a nasty kidney infection.
Rev (14 pounds)
Well, the show is over, the puppy is mostly housebroken, and I finally get a chance to catch my breathe,................and Della goes into heat a month early!!
That's right, Ms. Della went up Tuesday, 3/10, for her 3 weeks at the "spa". I will be posting when she comes back with details on who she was matched with. I wish it was Baumann again. A full 50% of the pups from that litter made it to graduation. At this time, Cecil, Cinnamon, and Cressida have graduated as companion dogs and Cyrano and Clifford have graduated as hearing dogs. Yay Della!

Random "Y" pictures
I realize that I have been remiss in posting photos this litter. I can only plead parenthood and end-of-summer/beginning-of-school business as my excuse. To make up for this lack I have herein assembled a selection of the cutest photos from the "Y's" first 4 weeks. So without further ado, I now present a month in the life of a litter....(backwards from 4 weeks, as I uploaded the pics in the wrong order and am too lazy to fix it.) :-)
Duncan enjoying the litter in their intermediate pen at 4 1/2 weeks of age.

First solid feeding,at 4 1/2 weeks. Doesn't look like they had any trouble figuring out how to eat, does it? ;-)

The day before we learned about solid food, be went outside for the first time!! (but we liked to be inside the play structures the best)
The cube

The tunnel

Wow, what a difference a couple of weeks makes!!!

2 weeks old

With 10 puppies, they start to run out of room to feed at only 2 weeks of age.

One of their last days in the puppy pool.

Amazingly, everyone gets enough to eat in this pile-up.

4 days old


There you have it, 4 weeks of puppydom. Hope you had fun!!
