What a whirlwind it has been for everyone here. Whiskey decided to hold off on her pups until yesterday morning (4/7) she went into labor the evening before always a planner that one she held out to share a birthday with Kass (Magnum's and Phoebe's Breeder). We were lucky to have Luann come on Wed afternoon to keep Holly company and help with prep and worrying. I dont know why they worry but I guess it was worth it in the end.
Whiskeys water broke around 5 am and by 630 she was having puppies. Meanwhile I had to go in my crate, but made sure I knew what was going on. Kass (my mom) came to help as well, which is good cause she has whelped lots and lots of litters including me! The puppies are adorable, and ofcourse some even look like me cause well Magnum and I are related. There are 5 girls, just like Holly said... we were going to have all girls but then when we found out at the xray there were 7, those had to be boys and they were!!! The count: 3 Fawn Females, 2 Brindle Females and 2 Brindle Boys.. We are finishing up selecting names, but Whiskey, Holly and I thought it would be nice to honor our special boxer relatives and oh Daly boy.. so although we dont do themes there will be one... Holly has let me name one and well currently Im calling her Skunk but I think Luann isnt going to let us keep that. Once the pack get a bit bigger their registered names will be selected... I am sure there will be lots and lots of pictures to come, today we are mostly resting.. Whiskey will post as soon as she can, in the meantime you get me!! ~ Phoebe

Well Whiskey and I have been filling our days as we know they will soon be very boring for me.. Whiskey is due in a few weeks and we are getting ready! Making lists and picking up everything so that when the little nips come we are ready!
~SNOW DAY! And just like that we are already done with a whole month of this year...
Our start to Feb has been a whirlwind... Today we finally got our truck back after it was in the shop for four weeks... I got used to the heated seats in the rental, but Phoebe and I like our truck best! We are preparing for a whirlwind weekend stay tuned! ~ Whiskey What do you listen to in the car? We are in the truck a lot and so we have our favorite stations on Pandora Radio, a number of good crime podcasts, but on Thursdays it doesn't matter where we are headed the vote is always to listen to The Dog Show Drive with Wayne & Will! Are you not listening to it? You should!!! Now we have only heard stories about these two before we started being fans... Cause well we are only three after all. Each week Wayne & Will do the show, they talk about many of our four legged friends and their two legged people... also they talk a lot about Hockey! But what we all like best about them is they continue to remind us why we do what we do! Cause it is suppose to be fun and well our people do love us! If you haven't heard them yet you should! You can find them here: https://www.audible.com/pd/Podcast/B08K582KZ6 ~ Whiskey & Phoebe
Each week Whiskey and I (Phoebe) visit our friends over at the Loyal Comp. pet store. The ladies there are super nice. They always have great new treats to try and we always leave with something special.. However, just as we checkout there is a shelf they put just at my level with my favorite beef sticks in it... Each week do you know what happens? Just as we are about to or have paid.. I remember they are there and always have to grab a few for the road! Holly is usually mad, but then just shakes her head cause well it happens each week.. you would think they would learn! ~Phoebe
