Sad Heart

It is with the saddest heart that I let you all know that Devito passed away in his sleep last night, curled up with his Mom and litter mates.
He is at peace now, what an incredible fighter.

The Puppies first segment on BTV.

I've been told these links aren't working so here is the Link.

They are famous now!

So here are pictures of the TV Crew when they pulled in.  Of course, after that I put the camera down and forgot to get any more pictures.

You can see more about the show here.  We taped the show but I'm not sure how to download it to UTube or Podcast it, so when I figure that out, you can see them.  Otherwise I will put a copy of the puppy parts of the show into everyone's puppy packs.
Tasha Chui, Valerie and all the crew are the nicest people ever, check them out if you get a chance!

Finished

Our last kid - Dark Blue girl
The whole family!
Now since I have to work tomorrow, I'm going to try and catch an hour or two on the couch.  I couldn't even begin to tell you correct sex/colour combos, so please don't ask until I get some sleep!!

The boys

This is little Light Blue Boy, he was born outside when I took Envy out for a pee...good thing I'm a fast catcher!!
One minute (not even) later Purple Boy joined us.
When I look at the two of them side by side, all I can think of is that movie Twins, with Arnold Schwartenagger and Danny Devito!

2:04 am

Light Pink Girl, who looks to be a fawn.

Then there was three

Another fawn girl!
Here is Yellow Girls first picture...
And a group shot at the lunch counter.
I make no promises about colour right now on the boy, I look at him some ways and think I might see a brindle stripe or two and then I convince myself that he is fawn.

And it starts!!

I would like to take a moment to introduce you to our newest addition...
Dark Pink Girl
Born at 10:30 pm 
Followed shortly by her brother at 10:42pm
Dark Green Boy
We have a long night ahead with no promises that we still won't avoid a c-section but at least we know that she gave it her best. 
More to come when the arrive!!

Possibility of a C-section

We ran another progesterone this am and it came back at 2.1 ng/ml, which means that she is chemically whelping, but her body might just not be listening to those chemicals.  The vet won't give me an answer one way or another, but says it's my call... so at this point m call is to give her the night to try and whelp normally, but have plans on being at the vets office at 
9 am for a c-section.
Not where I wanted this going, but I will not put Envy at risk over puppies.  So please think happy thoughts for her and the puppies!
