I just couldn't resist - this picture looks like you have a baby Panda in the mix.
Great job done on the whelping box - and bless both of you for taking precious Pumpkin in - just in time. I hope all of the pups find good homes and are well loved.
Thank you everybody for your kind words. Pumpkin is doing okay. She ate a little today and had some water. She is still really tired and will not leave the babies' side. She is a great mom. She is getting an injection on Thursday to help clean her out since I was not able to see if she delivered all the placentas. I tried staying up, but I was so tired by 8am. The vet says she should be okay and just to watch her real closely until Thursday. She wants to give Pumpkin a couple of days to rest before she goe in to the office.
Congradulations Pumpkin. Thank you for your generous heart in giving this girl a safe home for her to have her babies in, raise them in a secure and loving enviroment and then find them all their furever homes.
You and your husband are Pumpkin's angels. She was lucky that you opened your home and hearts to her. The puppies are beautiful :) :) :) :) :)
Oh how adorable! Congrats, Pumpkin new momma! You did good, sweety. Your puppies are SO cute!
Will they keep Pumpkin after the injection, in order to observe what she passes? Will the pups go, too? (Since they're born at home, when do newborn puppies get their first doctor visit?) And this is a VERY dumb question - what happens when she needs to urinate? Is she still in the whelping pen with the babies, and do you put pads or something so she can just go there? Could you give her head a skritch for me. Pumpkin, you must have known you had arrived at a safe place to have your pups.Quote:

The pups will go with as the vet wants to be sure they are getting enough nutrients since Pumpkin is so young. I will put them in a cat carrier with a thick blanket in it and another one wrapped around the cage to keep the pups warm. Thankfully my vet is only 5-6 mins. away!! Normally, pups don't need to see a vet till about 4 or 5 wks after birth, but in this case they are just being careful. Pumpkin actually goes outside. I have extra blankets in there just in case she does not want to go out, she does not use the puppy pads. She just goes out, does her duty, and comes back in directly to her pups and seems to "count" each one. I will give her a good head skritch for you!! Pumpkin says "rank roo'!!Quote:
