this was the day they were born. They were born just over three weeks ago! We knew that Ginger was getting really close, and Jed knew I was so excited. Jed had given me a kiss goodbye and I was exhausted. He called me from the barn and told me we had five little puppies! I thought that was a great number. Two hours later I went out to check on them and there were seven puppies! I thought for sure she was done. She had all of them and was trying to keep them all warm on such a cold and windy day, but they were still cold. SO we picked them up and covered the tile and back floor with sheets and towels and as the day went on she ended up having 10 puppies. I was shocked she had that many. It was pretty crazy!
Resting after having been in labor for like 15 hours!
This was them at two weeks old. Like a day of two after this picture was taken they all opened their eyes.
This is now. they are all very big and very playful and are soo fun to watch! It makes me extremely grateful to just only be nursing one at a time.
DOG PILE
Becky came down to spend the day and Emma carried each puppy one by one to the back lawn from their kennel. She wanted to play with them on the grass. She has named her puppy UTAH and asks all the time how UTAH is doing!
We were sitting on the blankets and I was talking to becky and before we knew two puppies were checking out George! He didn't seem to mind!
Here is Emma proud to be holding UTAH! She just picks up the first puppy she sees and says that it is UTAH!

Did you try and get her pregnant? Are you planning on selling the puppies? How long of a term is pregnancy for a dog? They are so cute!
