We had a early Christmas present...puppies!
December 23rd, 2008
-----
It hasn't been an enjoyable present though, our dog Tommy had 5 puppies and then after several hours of nothing happening we knew there had to be more because Tommy wasn't acting normal so the next morning Tyler decided to take her to the vet. After a nice vet bill we find out there were 3 more puppies stuck. Tyler gave her medicine to help, finally they all were born, but none survived.
Through the next five days we slowly lost 4 puppies one at a time, we figured they must have caught colds, they would be going strong then over night get weak and die.
We have one survivor, she is a wirey little thing and has been the strongest the whole time. We bottle feed her every 3-4 hours (yes, even through the night...thats Tylers job:)

Sorry to hear about your puppies... I hope the little one survives. By the way I love your hair. Last time I saw you (many moons ago) it was short! Maybe one day we can get together and catch up.

Man it sucks totally to loose puppies. We lost both of ours so next time we have to have the vet help but i'm very scared of the BILL! I hope she is tough!

Sorry to hear about your pups. I bet that was a bit stressful. Thanks for the invite to the party we had a great time!
