6 beautiful puppies were born on August 8, 2022
August 8th was a little crazy, it had been a very busy and long 10-hour work day for me. I was looking forward to a little relaxation time and maybe a drink when I got home.
As soon as I looked into the living room I knew that drink and relaxation time I needed wasn't going to happen. Instead, this is what I walked into...
OMG! She tunneled her way into her favorite chair. Tearing apart chairs is not
Remi's typical behavior, she's normally very mild-mannered and rarely rips up even a toy. I knew she was close to having her puppies because this was so unlike her.
So I locked her into a room so she could relax in her birthing pool then I began to pick up the pieces of fluff. That's when I noticed she had peed all over the living room floor and threw up a few times on the couch as well. UGH! She definitely was going into labor.
So I locked up the rest of the dogs and cleaned the living room. I was just finishing with the cleaning when my boyfriend called to see how things were going. I was also texting Carole (the other half of this breeding business) while I was talking on the phone with my boyfriend. I just told him that she was probably hours away from actually having the puppies so he might as well stay at work.
No sooner had I said that when I looked down at her and saw a puppy in its sack laying on the ground below her. EEK! I ripped open the sack and suctioned out her nose just like Carole showed me and rubbed the puppy until it took its first breath.
OH MY GOSH! I just took care of my first-ever puppy on my own!
Not long after the first puppy got here, my boyfriend arrived and the second puppy was born. Carole came racing up the road to help. Whew! I was so nervous about delivering puppies on my own, it was very reassuring to have both of them with me.
I don't know how Carole did it, delivering all the previous puppies by herself, because I was a nervous wreck.
Every single puppy was healthy and breathing perfectly. It was amazing to see all their pretty little faces through their amniotic sacks knowing I literally was holding precious life in my hands.
Each of the puppies, that we are honored to help bring into this world, is special to Carole and me, and sooooo loved!
Thank you for reading Remi's first-ever birth story.
All 6 of
Remi and
Kingsley's puppies be going home to their furever homes (maybe yours!) around October 3rd, 2022. You can contact me here, or on Instagram, if you'd like to have one of these beautiful pups to call your own.
