Getka did a great job throughout the course of the day yesterday delivering 8 healthy pups. 4 boys and 4 girls. Five black and rust and three red. A pretty nice mix. All pups are doing great and all seem to be pretty close in size without and obvious runt in the litter. I'll get them all weighed in the next day or so and then will continue to pos their weights weekly. Roughly.
Today I watched... both mom and pups as well as results of the election trickle in....
Another thing that doesn't happen often... a missed opportunity to hit the polls on election day. though...
Anticipating a high likelihood I would be otherwise occupied I took advantage, last week, of the early vote in person option. Did my part.... and it turned out to be a great experience. Friendly staff, a smooth process and absolutely no wait. Living in a small town does in fact sometimes have it's advantages.
Below a few pics of day one of new life. Settling in and getting the hang of things!
