after giving birth. And, umm, I wasn’t carrying nine. A little thinner in the waist, but not skinny at all really from feeling her ribs etc.
I am so proud of Lizard. She’s being a GREAT mama dog!

I think I DID have that expression on my face, though – giddy relief at not being pregnant anymore! You’re doing a great job, Jeri; she looks wonderful.

Lindy came back so fast that I called her the Heidi Klum of dog moms, looks like Lizzard is on the same program.

She does look happy, doesn’t she!!

She’s nice and shiny — good job.

What a gorgeous girl LIzzie is. My favorite combo – B/W w. brindle points. How can these help but be stunning puppies, given this pairing!

Wow, what a difference a day makes! Bet she can get up and down the stairs now without being carried.

Not gaunt at all. Very nice!

“Not gaunt”, well she was carrying a little extra weight to start which probably helped on that end. Now she looks great.
Just wait for 8 weeks though . . .

Jeri they all look wonderful. You’ve done such a great job. Lizard looks so healthy and so do her pups. We’re lookiing forward to watching them grow.

Wow! Lizzie looks wonderful. I think having them have a little “padding” before breeding is helpful. I tried and tried to put weight on Hannah while she was carrying her litter of 10 without much success. Right after whelping I was embarassed to take her outside for potty for fear one of my neighbors might call the SPCA on me! She did, however, make up the weight pretty fast thanks to a round the clock all you can eat raw buffet.

Jeri,
I’m so glad that Lizzie and the pups and doing well.
Wow, 9 pups she was loaded. Now the fun begins.
