Thanks everyone! I'll post more pictures as they grow! I'm glad they are all doing well and Lyra is being a good mother. The 3rd pup born was the female. She gave me a bit of a worry. She came out head first, already out of the placenta, and Lyra had one heck of a time getting her out. She is the largest pup. Since her head was sticking out I got her breathing, cleared out her mouth, while trying to help Lyra when she had contractions... but she just couldn't do it. Her shoulders just wouldn't come out. Really thought I was going to have to take her to the vet to get this puppy out, and end up losing the pup. Finally I was able to get her out after I put petroleum jelly type stuff around the pup to help slide her out. Of course by that time the puppy was purple and gasping for air... but soon as I got her out she pinked right up and was breathing just fine so I think she will be just fine.. she just gave me a bit worry.
I can see it now.. she'll probably end up being the trouble maker of the bunch.. especially since she is the only girl as well!..lol
Nope.. these guys are all roughs, since both parents are roughs. Rough x Rough can only produce rough...
Haha.. Collies are great dogs! If you ever decide to get one (rough or smooth) I know a few breeders up in your area...
