Getting closer...

We are getting closer and closer and Cinna is truly a champ. I wanted to share a picture from todays "bump" and the hold list as it currently stands.
Cute mama dog. And the hold list is as follows:

1. Vicky and Richard Jagels - Male
2. Jessie and Scott Dolan - Female
3. Chauncy Childs - Female
4. Nathan and Brittiny Manning - Male
5. Katie and Ernest Rodriguez - Female
6. Taylor and Rachael Bosen - Male
7. Kristina Tay and Kyle Ward - Male
8. Heidi and Jon Call - Male

And that is IT folks! Until I have a either a very conclusive X-ray or until after they all come out I will not be taking any more holds. If you are reading this and are not on that list and would like to be, please still contact me and i will put you on the waiting list. If we end up with more than 8 I will be taking names from the waiting list. If there are not more than 8 born I have a list started for the litter planned for 2014-15.
Cinna is scheduled for her X-ray on Feb 7th. I will post again then with the results! Until then I hope you are all excited and getting ready! Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Until the 7th!

Litter "B" ultrasound

Pregnancy is confirmed! (I'm a little late posting this) Cinna (and the rest of us) are expecting 8-10 wee little tri-color bonny pupays! (say that with a scottish accent and it flows better hehe.) Sorry, long day = odd humor. We are so excited and gearing up for all the work ahead of us. The whelping box has come out (to get our little one over the novelty of it before the occupants actually arrive) and the puppy food is piling up (we have to stock up you know). :-)

Whenever I watch the Doc do his ultrasound magic it makes me wish I actually knew how to read one of these things. I can pick out the blobs that signify a puppy but that's about it. :-) Good thing I have a good Doc to help me out.

This image shows three puppies (only the one at the top is in focus) this was taken on day 28 of the pregnancy and the puppies were 2.66cm at the time. They do so much growing in such a short time! Here is a fun baby bump pregression thus far...
First is Cinna on the first day she had a date with the handsome Doc. (the dog, not the Vet) slim and trim!
Next was Cinna 2 weeks ago "mum, stop taking pictures of me please, I feel chubby."
And finally today, look at the baby bump grow! I keep telling her only a few more weeks to go, keep 'em cookin mama! Love her. She is just happy she gets to eat yummy puppy food now and lots of it. :-)
On Feb 7th she will have an X-ray to see how everything is going and to predict the exact due date, until then I hope everyone is staying warm and getting excited for babies! I know I am, can you tell?

Snow!

I just had to post a few picture of our Winter fun. We are so enjoying the snow we have here in Utah, Cinna LOVES to pull the sled. I love watching her do her 'thang'. Rory thinks that this is what sleds are for, she is going to think Mum is out of her mind when I try to send her down a hill without her dog. :-)





 Remus gave it a go as well, it was his first time and he did ok, he likes carrying a pack better. :-)
 
And after all our fun we came inside to the warm and read a few books...

We hope you are all having as much fun as us. Litter B note: Cinna is due for her first ultrasound on Jan. 17th. I will post the results when I have them. Yay!
