New born puppies
 

Fresh out of the oven!
Final count 8 healthy wiggly noisy puppies!
She did have one more black pup a few hrs after she had all the others and it was still born. She had cleaned up, slept a couple hrs and convinced me she was done... so the final one took me by surprise.

Final Tally 6 girls, 2 boys
2 black girls, 4 apricot/cream girls
1 black and one apricot boys

So far I have a deposit for first choice.

Tink, I just posted on the other thread looking for an update. Oh, they are so cute I could just hug them all.:ghug:
To You Tink :bravo: for a job well done!
To Canada :congrats: To the puppies :welcome:

Tink they are all beautiful makes me want to come there and hold them . :)

fresh out of the oven! Haha! You're funny!

Great news Tink!!! I am so looking forward to watching them grow. I hope you get some well deserved rest.

Congrats on the new pups! How's mom doing?

Mom looked really beat this afternoon so I just let her sleep and took a nap myself. We both look a whole lot better tonight. LOL

I gave her a special treat for supper so she's content and laying around resting with her babies.

They are darling Tink!!! I know you are taking very good care of Mom and the babies. Poor girl deserves a nap--and I thought having one baby at a time wore me out.

Picture of contentment

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.....that is such a precious picture!!!!!!! congrats on all the beautiful babies :D

They are adorable!!!! I love puppy breath.

I wish that I lived nearby so I could stop in to hold puppies!!!! They are so cute!!! And you ended up with more of the apricot color than the black. Yay!!! I can't wait to see your pictures of them growing up! I look forward to everyone's puppy pictures!!!

Wonderful news Tink! They are just precious. They're so soft and snuggly looking.

A job well done by both you and Canada! Congratulations!!!

Are you surpriserd by the colors?

Judy, I'm very happy with the colors. Black is the default color for both labs and poodles so some get all black litters which I was hoping NOT to get. The blacks are too common as a result, so any other color is good to see. The last litter out of the same parents produced 13 pups and only 3 black too so that's really good.

I've got one deposit in hand and another is supposed to be in the mail enroute to me. I had 417 views on my site yesterday so that's encouraging... at least I was successful at getting word out that they've arrived. So I'm optimistic that they'll sell.

I also have a few people on a waiting list already for Bellas pups which should arrive in about 5 weeks. So it's going to be a very busy puppy summer for me.

It's a good thing I'm not trying to hold down a full time job along with this. I'd be totally overwhelmed and crazy.

I just gave Canada a bath since she stunk something terrible form the dried "birthing mess" on her back half. She might be a water breed but she sure didn't appreciate warm soapy water. lol Her and the pups are going to see the vet in the morning. Since she had a tougher than normal time delivering I just want to make sure she's A-ok. She's acting fine, but she did pass more afterbirth this morning which is not normal this late. So she's going to be watched closely today and examined tomorrow just to be on the safe side.

Hope everything is Ok with Canada. She sure has beautiful babies.
