Puppies Have Arrived!!!

[DianaB]

Congratulations on your new puppies!! I'm so sorry to hear that two of them didn't make it. It kinda' makes the birthing bittersweet doesn't it? Excited about the ones that are ok and sad for the two who didn't make it. I don't think that I've ever seen a chocolate yorkie. You're going to have to show pictures!!! I can't wait!!!

This thread is worthless without pictures!!! LOL!!! Well, I didn't really mean that - but you may remember that I am a huge sports fan so I frequent several sports boards where guys post and that is a common saying when they want someone to post pictures!

Do you think she went into labor early because she had so many puppies inside? I bet the little female that just wouldn't take a breath that her lungs weren't completely developed and that's why she couldn't breathe. I'm so sorry you lost two, but that is the way nature goes, I think.

I can't imagine how much fun it is to have a house full of puppies. Do you keep them separated from the other dogs and for how long? They are so cute when they start running around and playing!!!

I'm not really sure why she went 2 days early. I wish the two girls could have made it. The one was just so tiny that she fit in the palm of my hand and still had room. The other girl....I think Emilee pulled the cord right out and the intestines came with it. She only had two small contractions and I didn't even know the baby was out. She was that fast. I though she was just licking herself. I blame myself for not catching it sooner and cutting the cord myself. I did with the others. I wasn't taking any chances.

It is really fun having puppies in the house until they start getting bigger poops....lol. But they are soooo much fun.

I keep them in an x-pen most of the time. I take them out very often and play and teach them that when they are out they must go to pee pads just like in the x-pen. I let the bigger dogs and puppies smell each other through the pen and then when they are about 6 weeks old I let them out with the adults. The adults are very good and gentle with them.

Janet....they are sooo, soooo cute!!!!! I can see that you have a chocolate but is there a difference in them, like in their fur or something?

[gja1000]

They are adorable! Yes, I want to know about the chocolate too - what does that mean and what will he (I think it's a he) look like when grown???

[Janet]

You guys are so funny. Yes this little boy is a chocolate. The only difference is they are chocolate in color...but they are pure Yorkie onryness....LOL.
