Sunday seems a long time ago...but in actuality the puppies are only 48 hours old! It's early, but I'm very happy with how things are going. Gloria is an excellent mom - she smiles as she nurses them. Puppies are strong and vigorous - very pale in color - their weights after 24 hours ranged from 340 grams to 439 grams, Cooked up some chicken and gave Gloria the broth - she usually has very good water intake - wasn't drinking alot so I was able to fool her into drinking more. Worked for Jazz also. Gloria is moving around as though she didn't have a c section - so resilient. The incision looks good and the vet followed up with a call today to see how everyone was doing. A nice personal touch!
