Happy Easter Everyone and a special welcome to Cyda’s puppies.
Following a very long night of panting and digging, Cyda went into the final stage of Labour around 6am. Her puppies are as follows:
- 6.25, female black & tan with a little white on throat
- 6.40, male black & tan with white on chest
- 7.10, female ruby with white on chest
- 7.25, female black & tan with white on throat and chest
- 7.40, female ruby with white on chest
- 8.05, male ruby with white blaze
All puppies and mum Cyda are doing well, including the 2 smallest black and tan girls. We’ll keep an extra watch on them to make sure they are getting their share of mum’s milk. Many thanks to those who followed her progress on the webcam, particularly those who have sent messages of encouragement and support. Special thanks to Charles Barrett, our homoeopathist whose “Birthing Pack” again helped through a textbook whelping.

Greetings and congratulations from Savoy, Massachusetts, USA. I am beside myself with excitement and joy over the birth of 6 new babies. I can’t wait to see them next month when we ‘descend’ over yonder. We were going to bring some delicious treats for the pups but Anne tells me that they are not allowed. Drat!!! Well, I’ll bring plenty of kisses instead!
Well Done Mummy, I have been looking at my new brothers and sisters on the web cam they look great, cannot wait to see who my new sister will be ! Buy one get one free lol what a good idea 🙂
lots of licks and wags

Sox: Well done Mummy for my brand new brothers & sisters
Rufus: I’m going to have to get a mortgage on my crate for Christmas now!
Six is a good number, are you doing a “Buy one get one free?!”
To say Jo is excited would be an understatement!!
We’re all so happy for Cyda and her litter
Welcome to the world, you couldn’t have started it in a better place 🙂
They look soooooo gorgeous Anne and John. Congratulations!!
She’s done so well bless her.

Good morning Sis,
She certainly shelled them out like a load of peas once she got started!!!
15-25 minutes between each pup (without a rest) is amazing, -- you wouldn’t have been able to sort one out before she was pushing out the next one!!!
Sorry I wasn’t there to help, but you wouldn’t want my germs.
Were there any problems with anyone or did they squeak feed and wriggle to order?
They look a nice healthy pack from what I can see, excellent colour and gender mix, and I see Toby managed to get a few of his white genes through on each one, -- I personally think that a bit of white makes them more cute and appealing.
I guess you got little rest last night, so I wont ring in case you have gone to bed for an hour or two, ring me when you have recovered a bit.

PS What did Patti think to the surprise when she got up this morning?
