Today's Happenings Timeline

At 13:40 I took Sunka's temp it was 101.2 (normal), but there was a pinkish discharge.

At 14:48 I checked on her to find that she had a puppy. This was the 1st. It has a wide gray strip on its back with a dark black line down the center of the back. It is gray in color. Has a white tip on the tail.

At 15:27 the 2nd pup arrived. It is cream with a white tip on the tail. Dark strips on the back.

At 15:56 3rd pup arrived. Its right ear is already half way up. It has a black tip on its tail and many black strips on its back.

At 16:27 4th pup arrived. Dark in color with a white tip on the tail.

At 17:15 5th pup arrived. Dark in color with a tiny white tip on the tail. Light cream color.

19:45 I don't feel anymore pups inside and so I place all the pups in a box with a heat pad and tak mom out to potty and she does nothing but want back in the house. I came in and cleaned up the whelping box and placed a clean blanket in it. Mom rushed in to see the pups and is laying there happy and content. She drank a little water and 2 small bites of food.
All the puppies have long bodies, long legs, wide bellies. You could not say that one is the runt. They are all equally porportioned.
