I'm guessing THIS is what we've been waiting for:
Restless overnight, didn't eat all her breakfast (first time she's not licked the shine off the bowl).
Stay tuned...
-------------------
Afternoon update:
Refused lunch (unprecedented - alert the media!). We took our afternoon walk, then Ru rushed back to the house and into her box, proceeding to re-arrange the bedding for the zillionth time. Pretty sure we're in Stage 1 Labor - panting, occasional vocalizing, incredibly clingy and restless, etc.
-------------------
Evening update:
Two bites of dinner, and the Stage 1 carry-on continues, intensified. In a curious development, she's stolen a toy and taken it into the whelping box with her. I'm expecting live replacements will be along sometime soon.
Temp graph for all of today:
Next update will be on Monday.
I think you are right!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed!! You just brought a smile to my face, yet i'm neverous.
ReplyDeleteYes! That looks like you got the "Drop"!
ReplyDeleteWhat did dog breeders on whelpwatch do before Blogging was invented? Just sit by the whelping box and go quietly mad--or run up long distance phone bills calling other breeders, and jam the phone lines at their vets, that's what.
sorry to say, blogging and going mad are not mutually exclusive ;-)
ReplyDeletew00t! Ru on a roll. Good luck!
