Great news and Congrats!

Oh my Diana, there's certainly a bunch of little ones in there! Good luck and happy whelping. Can't wait to see what you get. Sorry to hear about your daughter, yikes!
I met up with Mary Dixon at the lure trial a couple weeks ago. She has wirehaired medios over here. What a hoot she is! lol We chatted about Hanna and had a good time talking about the similarities of our breeds.
wow, she even waddles, just like I did when I was 9 days out…poor thing. What an amazing feat though, to have the first litter in US...good for y'all and for Hanna. Let us know how things are going. Do you know how many pups to expect?
Oh poor thing!!! They always look like peeing is the worst torture at that stage, and of course they need to pee every thirty seconds! I can't wait to hear how it goes…fingers crossed, and best of luck
She still however can catch a bird on the fly - I don't know who was more suprised, me, Hanna or the dead black bird.

Good girl
Staring at about midnight - Hanna started whelping the first Portugues Podengo Grande litter in the US. At noon she surprised me with a 'bonus puppy' so the grand total (unless she downloads another one) is 11.
9 boys and 2 girls. All look hale and hearty. Mom did such a good job I didn't even know she was having them go to the whelping box to see some first pictures.
Wow…. 11..... hmmm... at 8 wks you will think you have 1,111
Congrats on a great litter...
Wow…11:eek::D!!! Congrats and glad that it all went well.
Amazing..11 puppies. Congrats on such a great turn out. I am glad Hanna is doing well and of course that you are staying sane. As soon as you have'em, you know we want them…pictures of course.
Yes and all my friends may get an early christmas gift of a puppy - so tread softly or you could be one
Of course I have a miserable cold and had taken nyquil so had to try to stay awake in the even she needed something - which she did not.
Don't tease…we very well would love to make room for another furbaby..lol
oh my look at those little roly poly babies
Awww, look at all those little monsters. Have fun Diana, and enjoy the "easy" early days. lol Looking forward to lots of updates.
Hey, I LIKE Christmas presents! lol

Later on more will be posted on my home page of www.mijokrbasenjis.homestead.com/podengo.html
Middle of July they will have their photo shoot with our friend Laurie Erickson and for those of you in Texas - We will be at the Reliant shows in Houston.
Wow 11!! That's great.. or should I say.. Grande!!! Congrats! Looking forward to seeing them grow up!
Congrats! Wow, 11 puppies…. How much do they have to grow before you know how many medios and/or grandes you have?
may not know real size until a year
11 - WOW!!
Are any wire-haired? I just love the wire's.
Well the Grandfather is wire - the unknown is Hanna's father who may have wire behind him but was not a wire himself - Wire is not dominant so the only way to get a wire is if both parents are wire - or both carry wire. (like the B tri-color coat)
Little early to say - the first sign could be some wiskering but likly not until they are a bit older.
We do have the middle size in wire in the US and that population is growing as well the last litter had only 3 - so hanna's numbers really were a bump up.
