Well, it took all night..until 4am, but Dave finished Pumpkin's whelping box....more like Whelping Pen!! It is 5'x'x2' and it really nice. He did the "pig rails" real nice too and sanded everything down so there were no sharp edges. It is nice because with it being so big, I can use it again if I get larger dogs that are expectin, not sure how a Chihuhua would like it though!! It be a mansion for that breed! Here are some pics.

Don't mind the laundry basket...sorry.


She is very hesitant at first...very scared.


She seemed a little better as time went on.


This morning, Pumpkin was back to her normal self, butt wiggling at the sight of us. She went outside and came in and went right back in her Whelping Pen. Everyday she get better. She gave me kisses today on my chin....big accomplishment! I think she is going to come around nicely. More updates later.
