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
