Day 3!

I just got back from taking all of the puppies to the vet to be checked and have their dew claws removed. They all weighed 1# plus! They are all good eaters and got a clean-bill of health from our vet. Chamois and the puppies are all settling down. We had a much quieter night last night! Chamois was very protective the first couple of days and wanted all the puppies right near her....but if one would stray away....she would upset the other 8 to get the one...that made for lots of crying. They are all moving around very well, mostly with their back legs pushing. It is amazing how strong they are and how determined they are to find Mom. All the puppies are within a 1/2 ounce of each other, so we don't seem to have a runt and they can all hold their own when it comes to finding a faucet!

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are thankful for 9 healthy puppies!
