Faye and Zeke welcome 11 puppies to the world
March 12, 2023
Faye's 1st pup was born at 1:31am. Most puppies delivered very quickly and with no complications. There was a 2 hour pause between Pup #9 and #10. I thought she was definitely done at 10, so I cleaned the whelping box. Faye then surprised me with her 11th pup at 6:45am.
Each puppy was born strong and eager to nurse. I was in absolute awe, looking over Faye and her beautiful litter. Our whole family was in complete shocked to welcome 11 puppies. Faye's last litter of 9 was our largest litter to date. Faye has out did herself again.
11 puppies:
5 red tris, 1 female and 4 males
6 merles, 3 females and 3 males
