Geez they don't like to give us a break! Last night I got another call for teaching, which would make it my 10th teaching day. I needed to take the job because it will ensure I am hired for next year as well! I only started accepting work in May, so this was great! Jake was picking up a trailer for my cousin, so we called my mom again. I joked with her on the phone that because Jake and I are both leaving, Missy will have her puppies!
Jake left at 5am, and I left at 7:30am. Tristan was so nice to my mom...he didn't wake up until 10:17am! What a champion sleeper, because he was asleep since 8:30pm! I had let all of the dogs out already, fed and cleaned everyone so it wasn't necessary for my mom to do much with the dogs. Turns out she heard commotion at 9am...it was Missy having puppies! So of course, the conclusion that we have come to is that my mom puts dogs into labor! Last time she babysat Tristan, both Miley and Jersey had puppies!
So Missy ended up with 10 puppies in total, 8 chocolates and 2 apricots. There are 6 females (all chocolates) and 4 males (2 chocolate, 2 apricot). These puppies are definitely Mowgley's babies, which shocked us based on her progesterone testing for optimal breeding days. Oh well! Mother nature knows best!
That brings the final puppy count to...(drum roll please!)
Jersey - 8
Miley - 7
Macie - 7
Lola - 13
Missy - 10
Yes that is 45 puppies! It isn't too too bad right now, but in 4-5 weeks look out! That's a lot of puppies that will be running around!
I will take litter pictures of Lola and Missy's puppies tomorrow morning and then hopefully post tomorrow night as I am going to my sister-in-law's baby shower!
