Hey everyone,

Just found out this morning that the dam we are hoping for a pupy from went into labour this morning!!! :) :) Only one boy so far and thats was at 8ish this morning.

Havent heard anything else so far and wondering how long it takes a dam to give birth? I know im way over excited and dont want to wait, but how long does it take usually take for a full birth? just in general?

Cant wait, think I may txt her again, but then she might think im hassling, but then i dont want to disturb her while she is helping with the pups..... what to do!! lol
Im just walking round aimlessly and not knowing what to do while I wait for news! lol

some bitches can take hours to give birth to a full litter, my bitch had a litter nearly 3 weeks ago now and had 4 in two hours, all bitches are different and so is each individual birth

Its just driving me barmy waiting.
Had no news since before 9am this morning, just want to know what is happening!!

Still pacing round the room, wearing a line in the carpet now! lol
Really hope she is all ok and the birthing is going well...

remember no news is good news!!! it can take all day especially if good sized litter, and when you are tied up whelping a bitch the last thing on your mind is texting or ringing people, however when all is done believe me she will want to share the good news with all and everyone and i am sure you will be one of the first on her list to let know!!!!

Thanks everyone!

Just found out that she had 6 puppies in total, 5 boys and 1 girl!

We were hoping for a Red boy puppy, and the only red she has had is a Pure White with Red ears! So going to have a look, think that colour should look pretty cool on a male SBT.....
