Pup #1!

One girl :) 13.4oz. Black with two white front legs, back feet white,
white around the nose and half collar.

Houston, we have discharge!

(sorry, for you non-doggy folks that I may gross out. )

She FINALLY has started with a sudden discharge about ten minutes ago. I'm not surprised. Our pizza had just been delivered and I was ready to sit down with pizza and a Blue Moon. Vut this is the first she's had. Amazingly enough, she CAN manage to still lick herself. Barely, but she cna get there around the belly. : )

Could still be several hours, or moments.

Sigh...

No change. Temp dropped a bit more. She's picked at some food today. She and I napped for awhile. Now panting and whining again (Neat, not me. Though I MAY start whining soon.)

11:15 AM update

Neat finally ate a little. I gave her oatmeal with chicken broth on it. She's rested a bit since first thing this morning, but is still overall very restless.

I have the supplies pulled close and ready, whelping party put on notice, box with heating pad for pups is ready... Trying to get some work done while we wait.

pics from Saturday night (or, friday night, depending on how sleep deprived I am. Thanks Daisy!)

Linda wanted to see Neat, as a pregnant pygmy goat. : ) Not sure these will truly show the immensity of this poor girl.

Today?

Neat's temp is 98.9 degrees and she is persistently refusing breakfast. Neat has NEVER refused breakfast. In the box whining and digging.

Fada and babies are doing wonderfully!

Ugh!

I am somewhat less than thrilled that it is raining, STILL. I am taking Neat out on lead, not letting her out on her own. She has been going in the tunnel, under the pause table, under the AC unit, etc, for several days. I'm not willing to have to drag her out of any of those, should be decide to hole up and nest there!
