Anyone had Puppies? Part 1

[veggiechicken]

Ssssh, they're all asleep at the moment. Bessie on the chair and the other 3 in various baskets. The only noise is Mary snoring

'Get better soon Bessie', xx

[Nicos]

For Bessie....



xxxxx

[veggiechicken]

Can I have the cake and cuddles please Bessie is just Tooooooooooo lively. She's supposed to be quiet, no running, jumping, walks on the lead etc. She doesn't know the meaning of taking it easy. Just won't keep still. I'm sure the Vet will tell me off tomorrow

[Thelma Sanders]

The dogs and cats that I've had over the years have all been the same, they don't slob about feeling sorry for themselves, like humans do!
They just get on with it once the anaesthetic effect has worn off....
perhaps they think " ooh - I feel better today than I did yesterday - wonder what that was all about"

[veggiechicken]

I'm sure you're right Thelma. Maybe they think they still have to hunt for food, instead of being served up by slaves.
She's not even interested in her "cut". There are no stitches - presumably its glued
Vet check tomorrow and another next week - then she is allowed off the lead

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

VC how did the last visit to the vet go? Are the stitches out? Any more photos?

[veggiechicken]

Back to the vet's today Frosty, for the 2nd checkup. I don't think there are stitches - nothing visible anyway. Its not quite healed - 2 little open bits - but its not affecting her energy level
The pups are growing rapidly - especially Ted who seems to be the same size as Bessie and is a real little pudding. Spud is still the lightweight. Their fur is growing longer and makes them look twice the size they are. Fortunately, they seem to have the non-moulting coat gene from Bess
I'll take some photos later!

[Jeanied]

How fab - looking out for this thread still

[JanieB]

U

I'll take some photos later!

Oh good, I've missed the daily pupdate! :-)

[sparrow100]

so have I!

[veggiechicken]

Sorry, I thought the interest would be over

Bess has seen the vet. A little bit of inflammation at one end of the scar but should be OK in a week. He said she had a lovely belly

A couple of snaps for you!

Spud in his favourite sleeping position - on top of Mary! She doesn't seem to mind at all.



Ted - who likes tha biggest bed!



Bess - who likes my chair

[Jay22]

Beautiful VC...has Bess had a haircut? Poor Mary she looks like she's saying 'I'm a doggie, get me out of here'! Puppies are really growing!

[Potstubsdustbins]

Thanks for the date VC, that Bess looks so innocent yet we all know she's a little scallywag.
