I have just been called by my mother who has informed me that the puppies are arriving! The first pup was born about noon. So far, there are three girls and when she talked to my aunt/breeder there was another puppy coming! Two look just like the mama, black and red with white, the third is blonde, and the one that was just being born is a reddish colour like. Madeleine is averaging a pup per hour so everything is going smooth. They are having a slight bit of difficulty with the fourth pup but hopefully he, or she, will be fine. I am giddy with excitement. There should be one or two more so we shall see if I am getting a girl, instead.

Is it any coincidence that the DOTD is a Chihuahua?
