I had the most amazing Christmas present. My labrador, Lady, had 9 little pups, between 1:30am and 6:30am this morning! The proud father, Sir Winston,was smiling only until about 4am, then he realized there were going to be more than 6 and started hiding his head with his paws.
The very attentive butler and godfather, a dutchhound, named, Churchill, played nursemaid all morning untill he passed out from sheer exhaustion at about 9am. But by then the mother and all her offspring were well fed, cleaned up and tucked in bed for a well deserved rest.
After that I also passed out after 2 Imitrex shots throughout the night and a lot of caffiene.
Hope you all had a very eventful and happy Christmas.
