@diff_eqs:

We are expecting any hour now, not just any day

Mama is doing great, very healthy, very round. I am a little nervous to deliver, but other than that, very excited and happy and looking forward to it. Will post new pics soon.

Any updates?

[diff_eqs]

Not yet…

I will post as soon as there is something...

You can call me if you are having problems.. but the best would be to go to your local ER…..

Call me .... I know that Terri works a second shift at work and might not be available

Thanks Pat, I appreciate it! I do have a cell phone number for our vet, and I can call her anytime too.

I hope everything will be ok though!

Any puppies yet?

[tanza]

A little bird (Terri) told me today that Lana had her puppies yesterday…. Yipee!!! I would assume they were all reds, since Slim Shady is pure for red.... let us know how it is going and how many girls/boys you have?

[BaiBee]

How many puppies? Congrats on the pups and wishes for health, quick potty training and litter raising ease! Oh and tons of papers and someone to help you with laundry!

Hooray for babies! Congratulations. May the paper boy deliver straight to your home.

Hi all,

Thanks for the wonderful words. Yes, Lana had her first litter on Friday the 21st. It took her a while to figure things out, but once the puppies actually started coming, she was a superstar. She did everything herself with very little help from me. The whelping took a little under three hours. There are five pups total, three boys and two girls, all red/white. Just took them to the vet for dew claw removal, puppy check and mama exam. All are doing wonderful, very healthy and happy, according to the vet. Pups are eating non-stop, they gained over 60% of their birth weight already. Lana is being a terrific mom!

I will post pics as soon as I get to that. Pups are a lot of work, and with my job and school things got a bit hectic over the weekend, that's why I just got to respond.

Thanks again, and please look for the pics in the next day or two!
