Puppy X-rays

Look at that X-ray! What do you see? Puppies, puppies, puppies! 

The vet actually took two x-ray pictures and we counted seven little heads. He said possibly eight. 

First of all, let me tell you about my huskies. If only, I can show you this book. I made it on Shutterfly about our pets. John, my boyfriend of two years, wanted us to get a cat and dog. I only wanted a dog, but after little persuasion we got both. Also decidedly, purebred huskies instead of Great Danes or Labradors from my original plan. I love all of our pets since the day I picked them up and brought them home!

So we have May (kitty), Benny (first husky male), and Cora (second husky female). We planned Cora for Benny so they wouldn't be alone their whole lives. Huskies can live up to 15 years, but I believe and dream that I will always be around them. Benny is 19 months old and Cora is 14 months old. They are both a beautiful white. Cora is smaller with amber eyes and a pink outline while Benny has blue eyes with black outline. 

Ultimately, Cora and Benny were tied in November, before Cora even turned one year old. We saw them "dance" a couple times before I actually noted their last tie on November 4. We were debating bringing her to the vet, because we already knew that she was pregnant. I did research online for symptoms and she was showing them. Plus, everyone knows any doctor visit costs money! Our concluding concern is to make an appointment because it is her first litter. We want to know how many to expect in case of whelping complications. He said she was healthy and in her prime and the puppies are small. Hopefully, God willing the birth of them all will be complication free. 

Understanding this concept of breeding huskies is causing me to feel excitement, pride, but slight anxiety, and a lack of experience. I know there are some behavior problems with our dogs which is not ideal nor my plan. I am also dealing with the setbacks of my goals for these animals. Thankfully, they are at the least healthy and have room to roam. I am reading and doing research so I'm feeling more prepared. We also just changed the whelping box into a playpen. We're learning as we go too. We're accommodating our house hosts and other animals.  

Now you have a quick glance and summarizing caption of the puppy x-rays. Do your research! Plan ahead! Keep it clean and safe!
