Day Four...


Isn't it amazing how they really aren't doing too much yet, but I could just sit there and watch their ears twitch and bodies jerk as they sleep. A healthy newborn puppy, will not lie motionless but body parts move while they sleep. It is fun to see the ears all of sudden flutter or a leg jerk. Are they dreaming of chasing rabbit already? They don't even know what a rabbit is... yet! :)

Figgy's temperature was 101.1 at 12:30 p.m. today. All is well with her. If a dam's temperature stays high or spikes up it could mean retained placenta (but I accounted for all three), an infection, mastitis... etc.
so I am pleased that her temperature returned to normal so quickly.

Momma Figgy and Boy 3... a precious moment.
Puppy Weights Day 4:
1) Black Patch  - 1' 1/4 oz.
2) Big Liver Boy - 1' 3 1/2 oz.
3) Liver Boy - 15 5/8 oz.

Another little pink paw... cracks me up. Precious!
