Puppies are Confirmed!!!
Dr. Stang of the Loudoun Veterinary Services confirmed at least two live puppies today by ultrasound! We could clearly see their heart beats on the U/S display. The puppies were located towards her hind end with one on each side. The exact number will be determined in three weeks with an X-ray shortly before whelping. The expected due date is April 10th. Spring time will be quite cheerful with puppies around the house.

Thank You, I’ve been holding my breath since the last U/S. I can finally breath and continue planning.

Peter.
Next time I think you should wait for the ultrasound check atleast 30-32 days or more…:))
I think that your family agrees since I am sure that you have been stressed lately?!:)
Now we hope that there will be some more of the “children” hiding somewhere in Tinks belly!:)) But if only two, I think that they should go to really flatcoat interested people.

I have been checking arround about the number of possible puppies and some say that there can be some more of them! Do you know how it can be possible that you can not se all the small hearts? I think this is really exciting for the moment! In 10 days we will know if one of the swedish bitches are pregnant. We are still waiting for two of them for a visit in our house. :)) This litter will probably bring some liver puppies.

Ulla,
Yes it is possible there may be one or two more, the Vet said at least 2. He also said it was not going to be a big litter. I was watching the display and could see the two clearly, but there could be another one hiding. We’ll know better numbers on April 3rd. I’m happy with two since I was expecting zero just last week. With two puppies they can socialize better and become a pack. Three or more would be great and make everyone happier of course. I’ll take what I get for now.

Still two weeks before we know how many small Ferro and Tink children there may be in Tinks belly. :)) I hope that time will pass really fast!! But it seems to me that Tink is growing.
