1/2 way through Whelping

This photo is of Liza when she had delivered 5 puppies. 

Today she is much deflated, but being a great mom.  

I am completely impressed how Liza managed to save her energy through the labour and still has more to give. 

Puppies born today!

Today Liza had 10 puppies - 6 girls and 4 boys - PAUSE we interrupt this blog to tell you

Liza now has 11 puppies  -  we just  had another girl so that is 7 girls and 4 boys.  Wow, what a day! Liza started this morning May 30 at 9:00 am and it is now 1:25 am May 31st.  We are all tired, and will be working on feeding them through the night.  Liza is a great mom, and we will have more pictures up in the next day or so.

Liza X Flash Puppies

After breeding Flash and Liza last month and we are anticipating that we may have puppies around June 1, 2012.  Liza is getting bigger and we took this photo of her this morning.  She is sleeping more, but still likes to run around.  Life is quieter with the loss of her friend Regis.

Regis at the Rainbow Bridge

It is with a heavy heart that I tell you that we put Regis to sleep this last Friday.  I took the time Thursday to take a couple of photos of him and this is one I will always cherish.  Regis was born December 1999 and was 12 years old.

Regis helped me learn much about Dalmatians.

Thank you again Bertha Little for entrusting this wonderful Dalmatian to me.
