As is our tradition, we had a visit from Alice van Kempen when the puppies are about 5 weeks old.
We took the pups with us to a nearby forest and made some lovely scenery pictures there.
Pictures at 5 weeks
Puppies are growing!
We weigh our puppies every day around the same time (+/- 18.00 h) in order to check on their progress. For those of you who are wondering about the downward lines; It is normal for puppies to lose a bit of weight the very first day or two,
All in all we like that we see all the puppies gaining a nice percentage (>10%) of their bodyweight every day.
RIP Kitsune of Laelaps
Sadly we lost one little boy today. He didnt want to drink anymore. We did all we could, but unfortunately we could not save him. We hope he can rest in peace.
K-litter Pups are born!
It was a long day, and a bit scary in the end, but luckily everything was alright in the end due to a quick trip to the vet. Iphigenia of Laelaps, a.k.a. “Yuki”, has given birth to 7 beautiful puppies!
She had already been in labour all morning and afternoon, but her contractions just weren’t strong enough, so nothing was happening. Ultimately we rushed to the vet and she had to have a C-section.
Mother and pups are doing well. Obviously we haven’t slept much yet, so the pictures aren’t of the best quality. We promise to provide more and better pictures soon!
