This is the birthing story of "Daisy" my 12 year old daughters dog:
She
had 10 puppies in all and they are absolutely gorgeous! There are 5
blue merle girls, 2 red merle girls, 1 blue merle boy, 1 black tri girl
and 1 red tri girl!! Yes, that's 9 girls and 1 boy!! The funny story
about that is my daughter so wanted to name the puppies flower names
like their mommy and had mentioned how neat it would be if they were
all girls! I told her that would be nice but I was sure that wouldn't
happen! What do I know?! Anyway, here goes all of our darling little
flowers: "DJ" (Daisy Jr), "Petunia", "Rose", "Pansy", "Iris", "Petals",
"Lily", "Bluebell","Marigold" and our boy is "Bud" (as in flower bud!).

This is the birthing story of our puppies born on August 27, 2010:
I promised that I would share the
birthing story so sit down, strap in and hang on! The girls were
unintentionally bred on the same day but The ultrasound tech thought
that Diva would deliver a couple of days before Honey. The girls had
spent about a week with us in the house and enjoyed lounging around in
the cool of the air conditioning. Thursday(August 26,2010) about noon,
Honeycomb began the beginning stages of labor! Within a couple of
hours, Diva started having the exact same symptoms as Honey! Slowly the
whole family shuffled off to bed, but I decided I couldn't sleep with
my two girls so miserable so I rested in the room with them, and helped
the girls feel as if they weren't alone. I took them out front often to
go potty and by about 1:30 am I was so exhausted that I dosed off.
Honeycomb is so well potty trained that I heard her whining and as I
opened my eyes, I was startled at the fact that she was about an inch
away from my face, it was about 2:50 am. She looked right at me as if
to say that she needed to go to the bathroom BAD! So I took both girls
out again and Honey pushed and walked and pushed and walked for about
10 minutes and finally she pushed one last time and out came her first
baby! There I was, with two girls in labor and a lifeless puppy on the
lawn and no towel or help! I quickly grabbed the puppy and began
cleaning her up and she took her first breath! Yippy! I made my way
back into the house and woke my husband, mom and daughter. Honeycomb
began having her puppies very regularly all the while, Diva was still
in labor but thankfully she wasn't to the point of having her puppies.
Honey had her last puppy at 8:30 am and I was going to let my family
babysit the new mommy and babies while I tried to sleep until Diva
began having her babies. Well that was a great idea but within a half
hour, Diva had her first puppy! Let me tell you, she wasn't messing
around. She had 4 puppies in one hour! Then she rested. I figured she
deserved a rest and we waited and waited and waited. Finally it had
been long enough to begin to worry. I called the vet and they wanted to
x ray her to make sure everything was ok. The whole time at the vet and
on the way there, Diva pushed but no puppy! After the vet read the x
ray, she said they needed to do a c-section to get the last 2 to 3
puppies out. Of course I said ok but I quietly prayed for the Lord's
will to be done. During the prep for the c-section, Diva never wavered
in her pushing. Finally just before they put her under, Out came puppy
number 5! We ended up bringing her back to her puppies and while they
all nursed there in the vets office, she had 2 more beautiful babies!
It was 2:30 pm when I arrived back home with a very tired mommy and 7
beautiful babies!
