jerojath Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Thanks for the reminder JJ - what time are they likely to finish each day? I reckon they would be done & dusted by 3 or 4 each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J... Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Sorry to hear you're not well tlc, hope you're feeling better soon! :) Thanks JJ, we got down there just in time to see some of the BCs. Hard going to be able to see much, I did nearly 2 laps before I figured out how to get into the rings without walking through someone's gazebo Showies certainly aren't big on leaving space! Was good for Bowie, he was really good even with a couple of dogs who chose to bark as we walked around. Scored a cheap crate mat for him too - I love the show stalls Any signs of those puppies yet?

Riley James Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Oh Jess I wish I knew you were there we could have had a Bowie, Russell meet up. Spent the day at the show had a great time. Spoke to a few people about Russell show prospects and all said he was show able. One in particular that is a terrier judge. Have written to breeder and told her and will see what her reply is. She had said yesterday he was looking good so fingers crossed. Went out for dinner and picked up a few total strangers along the way as we do and what a great night Cheers Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerojath Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi all! Tarni has had her litter. They whelped yesterday (Monday) at the very convenient time of mid-afternoon. :) She's so thoughtful! :laugh: We suspected a very small litter (which actually suited us!) but were a little surprised to have only two! We welcomed into the world Richie (Jerojath Richmond) and Luna (Jerojath Rosebrook). Both were very large newborns, very healthy and perfect. :) Luna will stay on here with us while Richie has a family who have been waiting nearly two years for him. They are very excited and can't wait to come and visit him. I'm having a lot of trouble posting pics here I'm afraid, but there are a couple on my FB page. :) I have to say, I am already enjoying having such a small litter.... everything is easier and more enjoyable. Less time cleaning and supplementing feeds etc means more time for cuddles. The kids are very excited.... we have been 'waiting' for Luna for a couple of years since this litter/she was first planned. They got to watch her birth too, which makes it extra special. Tarni is once again proving to be a great Mother, although she is a LOT more relaxed with them this time around.... possibly just because it is such a small litter, or maybe just because she's done it all before. I'm really planning to spend a lot of time with these two.... The last litter was at a time when I was too busy to enjoy them, and Chantel got lumped with almost all their care and socializing requirements. She did a great job, and enjoys doing it, but I felt I missed out on a lot. Looking forward already to getting Luna (aka "Lunatic!") out to Killarney for a run. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By midday she was back to her old self so I could have gone after all. Jess woke me up Monday morning saying Tarni was under her bed, trying to 'dig' so I knew then it was all systems go! Does anyone here know how to upload pics??? Feel free to rip a few off my FB page and post them here for me! I'm sure tlc would know how if no-one else did... (hint!)

tlc Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Ok here is some pics of the new family! Tarni and Babies Richie and Luna. Jasmine and Luna Jemma and Richie The girls look happy with their new bubs JJ. I was going to put these on last night but had the computer off early. Still not well, went to the Dr yesterday and about to head to SWHC for bloods now. So over being sick! At least I still have my mum here for a few more days.

jerojath Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Oh, Thanks tlc.... you're a STAR!!! I did read you were still unwell.... you've had a bad run lately. Hope you are soon on the mend. :) Glad you've got your Mum around. Edited to add: You can see by the photo at top how far apart the pups were born. Richie is all dry and fluffy while Luna is still wet. There was about 3 hours between them. Richie was breach, and quite big, and had to be assisted out. After 90 mins there was no sign of progress on the second pup, yet I could feel a second in there, still up very high. I rang our Vet and got him around for his oppinion and he could also feel what he thought was a second pup, up high, and nothing was progressing as it should. So, we gave her a shot of Oxytocin to speed things up a bit and sure enough, within 20 mins we had feet in view (another breach birth!) and again with a bit of help, we whelped Luna. Both pups are steaming along.... Richie has gained 80g in the last 24 hours, and Luna has gained 120g. There's only about 10g between them now. :) Edited January 30, 2013 by jerojath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
