So Derek's family dog (chocolate lab named Brandy) had puppies early Friday morning, I went over to Derek's for thanksgiving after being with my family and Derek took Brandy to his sisters cuz they didn't want to leave her home alone and I walked in to see her in the garage and she was HUGE, I had a feeling she was gonna give birth really really soon and sure enough as soon as she settled and got in her bed and after thanksgiving was all over with, we woke up the next morning and she was nursing her newborn babies.
The number of pups kept changing, at first we thought it was 8, then it went down to 7 (cuz one got suffocated) and then Derek counted them after getting Brandy new bedding and there was 11! and the next day there was 12 and counted again there was 11 (she had a stillborn that was born late) and now its 10 puppies cuz another got suffocated cuz they get underneath the mama and she doesn't know they are underneath her like that. There are mostly little girl puppies, Derek wants to keep a boy.
We have to help Brandy feed them since there is so many she can't feed all of them when they all get hungry, so we feed them goats milk with honey. Some of them don't take to it too well and some sneeze when they drink it, and some gulp really loud cuz they think its tasty, its cute=) This doesn't really help us too well cuz i can sense we are getting attached to them by doing this. Its like taking care of your own babies, and they are only gonna get cuter. It kinda sucks we will have to give them away, but at least to good homes of our friends so we can still keep updated on how they are and see them every now and then. Derek and i were watching YouTube videos on lab puppies and I was so excited to see how much cuter they are gonna get.
anyways.. I am off duty today and tomorrow from helping out and taking care of the puppies. I am going Christmas shopping with Brittany cuz I barely have started on Derek's presents! so today we are going to the pavilions and then putting up the tree tonight when we get back, and tomorrow I'm gonna go see Four Christmases, hang out and eat some food with Amers, should be good times!
