The PUPPIES have arrived!!!!

June 15,2008 (Father's Day)

Jim and I and our four dogs were on our daily walk, when it happened! Cashmere has a contraction! We rushed back home and had a few moments and at 4:15pm, the first pup arrived. Puppy 1 came out breech but fairly(for me) easy. After mom got right to her duties, we noticed he was fairly light and TINY! What a wonder!! Puppy 2 came into the world at 5:30pm head first and again was fairly light colored and more robust than puppy 1. Puppy 3 came out at 6:45 pm and this one was rather dark and female! Next came Puppy 4 at 8:10 pm. This one was more of a struggle for mom but all went well. Our little male was albino in color. Puppy 5 was next and he arrived at 8:55pm. This one was also breech, but seemed to be an easy birth none the less. He looked similar with Puppy 4, white, but he had a small spot on his backside. Mom went on with her motherly duties of cleaning up each pup and they all were suckling immediately. We waited for more, but no more arrived. Jim and I took cashmere and her perfect family to a clean bed for the few nights to come. What a wonder this whole birthing experience was.
