OK, this kind of makes me worry about mating my little girl, she's only one and being pregnant is a long way off for her. I've never had a pregnant girl. Do they suffer during the pregnancy (I mean other than giving birth)? Do they get around ok and and are they able to take care of themselves pretty well?
They get along just fine… my have always run up and down the stairs, outside to try and catch squirrels... all the way up till the day they Whelp... We were even at a lure trial 3 days before Maggii whelped.. and believe me, if we would have let her, she would have "chased" for that bunny...:p One thing I will say, I do not feed them any different (amount or kind) during the first 4 weeks... starting in the 5th week, I change to puppy food, but do change the amount. (of course this was before the days of EVO and its kind, so now I would most likely just leave them on the food they have been on all the way till the last two weeks. This is when the babies grow the most... I will increase the food a little each time till the last week they might be on double what they usually would get and start adding things like 4% cottage cheese, some liver... and start splitting it up into more smaller meals. When they whelp, the first two weeks they have food all the time all they want and especially water, they drink lots....

Now we are getting to the finals.
Today is day 55 of Banshee's pregnancy. She is doing fine and "has to enjoy" the parties the puppies are having inside her. Sometimes there is a lot of dancing and kicking inside…This picture is from Saturday

Congratulations! I love how pups 2 & 3 have long sleeves (where the black goes all the way down to their paw)! :)

The puppies do have their own picture-gallery right now. http://a-wurf.seelenfreund.dk
They all are doing really fine. Have reached the 300 gr marks and more this morning.
Banshee is a very caring and fantastic mommy. I am very proud of her.
