I have been remiss in keeping up the blog. A lot has happened, but the only thing I want to cover right now is our new litter of Yorkshire Terriers! Raina had 4 which surprised us. She was so miserable and looked like a bowling ball on legs. We figured she would have 5 or 6. From now on we are going to get an x-ray before the due dates so that we know how many puppies to expect.
The picture was taken before their tails were docked. Raina had a very easy delivery and is an excellent mother. She has not figured out how to pick them up. One was accidentally pushed out of the bed today and Raina came to me for help.
These puppies should be smaller than the last litter. The father, Andy, is a teacup Yorkie. He only weighs 4.6 pounds. I had some concern about he and Raina being able to mate. I definitely underestimated Andy's abilities! It's exciting and I will keep the blog up to date as the pups grow. I'm ready to hear the growl of Gremlins when they are about 5 weeks old and I let them loose in my room.
