My Dog Had Puppies

Ok, ok, I didn’t post it on the website early enough and I apologise, but my shih tzu Bailey gave birth to six, strong and healthy puppies on Monday 28th April.  Unfortunately, I missed the birth.  My mum was late checking on her and I didn’t get home until 7pm, and she must have had them late afternoon.

I checked the puppies - we have six boys, which is quite a feat not having a single girl - and have been waiting to get a picture for you.  I didn’t want you to see Bailey looking like something from the RSPCA, as she looked very bedraggled, naturally, after giving birth and I know she wouldn’t want her picture on the site like that.  The puppies looks like small hamsters at the moment and do nothing but squeak for food and sleep.

Anyway, all are doing well.  Bailey had a small infection, which is normal when the immune system is so low, so I got some eye drops from the vet and she’s been on puppy food for their higher nutritional value, along with chicken, lactol milk and biscuits.  I’ll be posting pictures on regularly - promise :)
