Well, I guess once again I called it well. With under a week to go, Majestic's getting huge. Her belly continues to grow on a daily basis and her normally beautiful gait has been replaced by a waddle. And while I miss seeing her romp around with the others in her normally gorgeous and agile state, it's one of the necessary evils of being a breeder. With that said, there are some changes I love too. Majestic has become super sweet, calm and clingy rarely leaving my side. There's a profound gentleness about her that I adore. Her pups, on the other hand, are kicking up a storm with unmistakable signs of new life loaded with potential. And while they aren't due until Monday, if history repeats itself which it often does, we may have pups as soon as Friday. Tomorrow, I'll put the finishing touches on the whelping pool and will pull out the kit to ensure all is ready and in place for new arrivals. My fingers remain crossed that Majestic comes through for everyone on the wait list but first and foremost I wish simply for happy and healthy pups and a smooth and uneventful delivery for Jess. Stay tuned for updates!

What a sweet mama!...both of you :) I am sure she is still stunning waddling around. So glad to hear she is doing well! I am driving up to Fernandina Beach today through Sunday but will be checking up on your blog! A happy and healthy delivery!

Thanks Kate. Safe travels. The weather is gorgeous and hopefully will stay that way for your trip. Majestic remains calm and quiet. Should start to see a decrease in appetite and some nesting behavior soon. Typically a flat out refusal to eat tells me pups are coming within 24 hours or so. She may hang in till Monday...
