LGD Puppies due in August

[Goat Whisperer]

You are going to have your hands full! She looks huge!

Whatever you budgeted for vaccines, worming, and puppy food…DOUBLE IT!

She's had milk for a week! I can find so little about dogs, there's more about the mythical teacup pigs birthing than dogs!! =0
Brushed her out some more and finished quaffing the male's butt hairs, lol. He marked the whelping pen, so locked him out from it and cleaned it. I'm pretty sure she'll try to have them in a random spot either way.

Trap caught a rat, I dropped it on the ground to reset it before tossing the rat in compost, but before I could get back to it, missy picked it up and walked off with it!! =0
She's never messed with rats, mice or birds. So I had to stop and follow her. She took it all the way down the hill and left it slightly covered by dirt in some tall grass in a ditch. Motherly care??

I'm getting so anxious!!!

When I had a whelping area in our barn I used bales of straw for the "walls". Just one bale high was enough to keep the puppies in for about 3 weeks and it let mom come and go as she wanted. Now if it would only work for baby goats...

Strange about burying the rat.

My puppy ID collars should arrive today!

Also had to semi make my own health records pamphlets. Printer didn't want to print anything with color, so I had to write in a ton of stuff, lol. I wanted them to color match the collars, ah well. My hand writing is horrible, that's the real issue.

Collars are in!

She's a bit thin today and eating less. Much more obviously lazy and sleeping all day.
Ughhh, when will they show. I'm so impatient! Lol

Hemostats and plain floss came in! Realized no stores had them near me and ordered them last night. Thanks amazon prime! Whoo!

Storm was coming in, so she was following me around.
