The Pink-litter is born!
So finally they are here! Our Pink-litter who will be be named after Pink-songs. And actually a few days earlier than what I expected. On Wednesday evening Tiya had less apetite than normal and during the night the openingphase started with heavy breathing, bedding and so on. We got some rest and spend the night on the couch and in the puppypool. During the morning her temperature dropped a bit and just before lunch she started to have contractions. So here are the delivery as it went on!

Tiya is amazing at this. She pushes out a puppy with what looks like not to much effort. She cleans it and cares for it and when it is saticfied feeding she rests and powernaps until her contractions starts back again and then she does it over again.
I always assist my bitches at birth but I know she would have managed on her own. She keeps an eye on each puppy wanting them near her.
So overall a very schoolbookexample of a delivery without any complications. So happy that she was able to deliver all 15 puppies without help and that they were all alive and strong!
Lots of photos will be coming soon!
