Autumn is very proud to announce she had 11 puppies on May 14th. 7 girls and 4 boys. Mum and puppies are all doing well. We were all very surprised!! An x-ray showed 7 puppies, so as 8, 9, 10 and 11 came we were totally surprised!! She delivered them all within 3 hours! Extrememly fast and very easily. She is a great mum and so proud!! They are all spoken for.
Day 1. The girls are marked in pink and boys are blue.
Day 3. It's hard to get all 11 in!!
Day 3. You can see that there is no "hole" in the ear canal. They are closed until around 2 weeks. The nose is starting to get black. They re pink when born and sometimes start changing as they are born and others take a few days. The pads are also pink and change to black.

We were clipping the nails and discovered one of the boys has a "deformed" right front paw. It appears to have the main pad and small toe pads but no toes or nails. We won't know how it will affect him until he is up on his legs and moving around. He is as active as all the others and appears normal except for the paw. You can see him moving around on the video - blue tail. Click on the pic to see the video.
Day 9 - less room at the milk bar!!
