Can't quite believe that Trio will be 5 weeks post mating this coming Wednesday!! Time just seems to be passing us quicker and quicker, it has helped though to get to this point and be confident that she is in fact in whelp!
There's no disputing the fact now, the changes are very subtle but evident to those that know her well. Whilst walking them today the girls (Tasha & Eleanor) came up with different reasons for believing that she is in fact carrying puppies. She has started to broaden a little across the back and deepen, the most noticeable change has been in her personality. She seems to be very aware that she is carrying precious cargo, taking care not to over exert herself or charge around and get knocked by the others. She is also being a bit picky with her food, not like her at all!!
She is continuing to be treated as the others and still enjoying her walks, something that is really important as we want her to be fit and healthy for whelping and rearing the pups.
Many congratulations to the happy couple and the Blacks. Carrying a very precious cargo indeed!
