Ok so we skipped Callie's last heat cycle because of the c-section last May. Her and Tux were dressed in diapers, baby onesies, and belly bands for an entire month and were constantly supervised or in there kennels when I had to be gone. They really looked silly. She had been going into heat every 5 1/2 to 6 months. I was not expecting it again until the last half of February. Surprise, Surprise, she came into heat about a month early. She started on January 22 and we have had two good ties in the last three days. I plan on keeping them apart today and letting Tux recuperate. I plan on having two more ties this week. Even though they are the only two dogs in this household I still only do supervised ties. Callie seemed to handle the mating better last time then she is now. She has been more panicky this time. I have had to get on the floor with them each time to help keep her calm.
Since we have already had a couple successful ties and should have 2 more in the next few days I am planning on puppies. Pregnancy in dogs lasts 65 days. She should be ready to pop the week of April 3rd.
This litter is being sired by Tux, who is the son of CH Sheeba Super Trooper. Callie is the Grand-daughter of CH Majestic Just Tough Enough. Callie and Tux both have excellent bloodlines, make sure you check out their full pedigrees on my website. They have also both been heart checked and certified to be clear of any genetic defects. I am expecting blenheim and tri colors. I have had some inquiries for this litter and do have one reserved. If you are interested in being put on the waiting list please let me know. You can find a link to e-mail me on my website. www.webbswhiskersandwags.com
I will update as soon as there is anything to report. I will be taking Callie to the vet around March 1st to confirm pregnancy. I will not know how many to expect at that time. She will get an x-ray to get an idea of how many around the end of March.
