Roxy hasent wanted to eat or drink much today. I was nervouse at first and called the vet about it since it is 5 days early (60 days pregnant) and he asked if i had taken her temp today i hadent yet. It was relatively low!!! I asked if it was too early and he told me know she could give birth to happy healthy puppies im going to check her temp again here in an hour. He told me she definatly sounds like she's getting to that point and could go into labor anytime now and just keep checking her temp!!! i am shaking right now as I type this and was the main reason before when i made the post about puppy names!!! Im going to take a early nap now because I plane on staying up with Roxy tonight in the Laundry room Jamie took off from work and is going to take over watching her and the other dogs while I nap!!! She is just kind of lazing about rolling on her side alot and laying in her welping box alot!!! And the rug in the living room she's avoiding the other dogs. So be prepared for a late late in the night post about puppies!!!!
5 DAYS EARLY!!!!!! |

Love4pits,
You make me feel really happy to know you. I am so happy that you are bringing such healthy quality pups into the world. You are very responsible and you should take pride when you see those pups inch their way out. You are bringing quality into the world and I wouldn't be one bit mad if you "boast" about it, because you have truly earned the right... Especially after tonight's long nite!! LOL Anyway, give Roxy my love and all of my dogs' say that they will be thinking about her tonight!!
