Phoebe (Roughrider Winnett) delivered eight beautiful, healthy puppies between 8:30 last night and 1:30 this morning–her actual due date.
All it takes is another litter to remember why I do this. What an exhilarating experience.
Handsome and proud father is, of course, Los Perritos An Heir About Him. You can see his picture on my earlier blog post. His owner, Charlene Edwards, calls him Prince–which he is!
Like Prince, three of the puppies appear to be Sable and White (2 girls and 1 boy). The other five are Black and White (2 boys and 3 girls). Their weights range from 5 5/8 to 6 7/8 oz.

Phoebe was a very attentive and alert mom through the entire process–more concerned with how to take care of everyone–the newborns and the one ‘in the chute’–than her own discomfort.
More photos before I tend to the new Mama.
