Here they all are with their very tired birth mamma after I split the litter several hours later after Meeko had whined and fused and begged for a couple more newborns in her nest. Thank goodness Meeko was willing to help - I would have been bottle feeding around the clock for weeks to help Sable take care of this huge litter. She is a first time mom and her milk suppy would not have been sufficent to feed them all. Click here to go to Sable's page.
Day 1 - Born 3/28/07
The 28th was a very exciting day here at Double D as Meeko gave birth to a single black/ tan female! Yep - just one! Later that day Sable gave birth to 9 puppies! I decided it would be better for both girls if Meeko helped out raising Sables' VERY large litter. Meeko was very, VERY happy to help out, so after a couple quick shots of Sable with her huge pile of puppies, I slipped 4 of her pups to a very eager Meeko. Sharing the work will make keeping these youngsters happy and healthy much easier for both moms. Sable is a first time mom and I would have been bottle feeding around the clock as she would have needed help with such a large litter. The first two pictures below are Meeko with her daughter.
