Well, it appears Elsie's labor is in a lull. It's been two hours since pup #5 came, and she hasn't had any indication of contractions since.
She's happy, hungry, thirsty, alert, and interested in her pups. She even took a tap while the five nursed.
So while we're waiting for pups 6 & 7, enjoy this quick video of the Five-Pup-Puppy-Pile singing!
(Again, you'll have to wait a minute or two while YouTube processes it, but it's been uploaded there already.)
Joan,
ReplyDeleteI have been "silently" reading your blog for a couple of months now and I just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed seeing your pics of the labpr & delivery process. It's been like reading a very exciting book all day! When I play the videos of the pups, my 8 month old Lab, Potter, perks his ears up and "hunts" for the sound.
Anyway, the pups are beautiful and I just wanted to say thank you for letting us experience this with you.
Thanks & good luck!
Catherine (& Potter)
Oh my goodness! I just logged on to see what has happened before I went to bed and they had arrived! Good luck with the rest and I'll be seeing you in the morning.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well, we will check in tomorrow morning - hugs to you and Elsie!
