Nellie’s puppies are due in nine days!  Final preparations are in the works.  She now has access to her whelping box for nesting.  Temperature is being checked twice a day for signs of oncoming labor.  She is out and about on the property several times a day on low key exercise walks.  She is no longer interested in chasing ducks.  Her belly continues to grow.  There is enormous anticipation here at Paws Upon the Cowlitz!!!!!  Eleven puppies coming soon!!  Visit our website for more puppy info….
