This one sure is a whiny one........but I love that sound!
As of 1:55 pm ET, we now have three! One black and 2 yellows!
More to come, I'm sure!
Well, at about 2:20, I went out there to find another one. This one I found was black. This one looks to be the runt of the litter so far! But, I was in for a surprise. I went out there to find that Steeler had moved the rest of the pups under the heat lamp and moved a towel over them. To my surprise, there was yet another new black puppy with the first three! So, if you're keeping score at home, we have 5 total so far with 3 black and 2 yellow!
Well, I do believe we are done at 9! 5 black and 4 yellow labs. Mom and pups are doing well, but I'm exhausted! Here's the final pic of the day with Steeler and her pups.......and you thought dinner time was tough at your house! :-) I also had to give some shameless plugs for our cats because my daughter said they would feel left out.
This is Ashley. Her and Tiger were rescue cats that someone had left in a dumpster. Now, I'm not that big of a cat fan and neither is my wife. However, these cats have grown on us and my wife hates mice and we live in the country where mice like to live. Hence, in the spirit of La Cosa Smokestra, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Tiger's pic will follow Ashley
On a sad note, the runt of the litter didn't make it through the night. I suppose Mother Nature knows best but it still doesn't make it feel any better.
Steeler, thanks for sharing with us crazy humans a very personal time in your life. It's such a joy to watch all the new additions your poppa is posting. Good girl Steeler, thanks for sharing this Marc.
ReplyDeleteWhat a very cool day you have had Marc. I've been watching off & on all day. Glad Steeler is doing well. Hope you made those cookies for her, she deserves a treat.
