It doesn't take long for anyone in our family to get pregnant! Cookie had 6 little puppies last night - 5 that are still living. So, we have gone from a 2 dog family to a 7 dog family. God's plan for birth/mothers is an amazing thing - even when seeing it in dogs. It was awesome to watch Cookie have her babies and take care of them for several hours without even taking a break to rest. She is such a good mommy already. I just love watching her with the pups - it is one of the sweetest things I have seen in a long time. She was finally getting some rest this morning, and her babies are getting some rest too. Cookie is a Shitzu, Lighting a Corgi, so the dogs are "Shorgis". We are going to enjoy them while we have them. Hopefully the kids won't get too attached.
What a sweet little face, huh?
My kids thought it was cool that they still had their little umbilical cords - Haleigh was wondering if they turned into belly buttons!

ok....whoah...back up. So...when you adopted the shitzu it was not pregnant? lightning did that? but morgan told emma that lightning died? and then the shitzu had babies? are you guys in sane? did you know she was knocked up? wonder if i could talk brian into one! what are you going to do with them when you come up here? where are they sleeping/living?
ooh, and we kept our puppies in a kiddie swimming pool when we had bred them
Lightning didn't die - Tanner did. We got Lightning after Tanner died. When we got the dog she was just coming out of heat. Our neighbors will watch them when we come home.
Your just saying the dog got pregnant, right? You said "our family" and I'm just wanting to be clear on who is/was pregnant.
NOT ME!
ok....i knew tanner did....but someone told emma last night (jacob i think) that their other dog did. take pix & update us a lot...emma was wondering what they'll really look like
Congratulations! I bet the kids are loving having so many puppies. How is school going? We had eight babies in our household at once, when I had Mary Nan and the cat had seven kittens. Crazy days. But I don't think you ever outgrow being excited about having puppies or kittens. Y'all have a great weekend!
