Getka x Serious

     The Valentine Litter

​         All Pups Reserved

The Count Down Begins...  Or Continues!

Greetings puppy people. We're, as they say, getting down to the wire with pups expected in just a couple short weeks. I've calculated Getka's due date as February 16th but experience tells me most Dobermans don't make it the "textbook" 63 days so maybe Valentines Day babies this year? Time will tell. 

As the reservation list grows so does Getka. Even so, some of you are likely wondering just how many pups I think one dog can have. My answer -they can have fairly large litters but at this point it's a little much to ask of my girl to satisfy all requests as they stand. The last several people who came on board are fully aware and their names appear on the list hopeful for a pup this time around but fully aware they may be waiting for an upcoming litter. 
The first order of business is obviously number of pups available but when not only sex but also color is a consideration the reservation list becomes far more complicated.
When anticipating a litter, my memory always takes me back to my first. A litter of 12 pups. 11 girls and one seriously outnumbered boy. It's always a bit of a gamble. 

Most of you who've found my website are aware of how the blog works. I post lots of photos and try and describe how the pups are progressing on a fairly regular basis. Generally starting around the four week mark I'll create a page for each pup of the litter and add solo shots to their individual pages each week. I also weigh them and post results on the "weights" page on a fairly regular basis. Usually approximately weekly. It helps me track the progress of each and assures me no body starts to fall behind. If it's a big litter, that can turn into a snowball rather quickly for a smaller or less determined pup. I like to stay ahead of the game and if need be step in before the snowball begins to roll.  The pups will be assigned a colored collar within a day or two of birth and that color will carry through their entire time here 
with me.

I encourage each of you to post comment or questions here on the blog. Often if you have a question, others will likely have the same one. Comments assure me people are actually reading the blog and knowing that gives me reason to keep on posting.

I'm excited too Jordan. And a little nervous. Anxious to see what kind of mom Getka proves to be. First time moms always scare me a little. But so far all is going like clockwork.

Our pup was in the last litter, she was three months yesterday! It's unbelievable how long the wait felt (we were not sure if Skye was bred due to Irma..) but our first month with her has gone SO fast, I swear she grows noticeably every day.

Debi, the blog meant so much to me to keep in the loop and watch them all grow!

I know you were a faithful reader Simone and from that and your comments I knew you were going to be a fabulous "pawrent". Has been a pleasure to watch your progress with Scrambles both on the litter page and her instagram. Keep up the good work. And have fun in class!

His Deb, wanted to wish you and Getka the best. I hope that Getka has an easy delivery and all the pups will be healthy. Have my fingers crossed that I will be one of the people smiling...but more important that all that goes well. Thanks for the blog on Getka. My heart goes out to you over Lexi!

Thank you Sandy. Still a hard thing for me. Like any loss I guess it will somehow always be there. Just reread my words and ... dang! Tears again. Getting easier though. My fingers too are crossed that Getka comes through with a pup for you. Thank you too for the well wishes for Getka and her unborn pups. She's doing great! Getting fat. But happy! :-)

Debi your puppy pages were so much fun and full of so much info. Made me feel like I was there for every step of Rocky's first couple of weeks! These new pawrents are very lucky to have such a dedicated person to help them through this wonderful experience. I still love coming back to these pages. You do such a great job keeping us updated...thanks!!!
