What a start
I went to work after our appointment today since nothing was happening. Came home to Chloe panting, shaking, and a questionable spot on the bed(so much for having husband watch her) No contractions were noticeable, so called the vet, he said give oxytocin. Nothing happened so in we went.
Got her on the table and open and these two HUGE puppies were at the Y fighting over who got to come out first. We don't think they would have ever come out. Got them all out, there were 8, so much for the money I spent on an x-ray, and worked to get them all going. Kind of scary situation, they just hung there limp. We got them all going and then Chloe had some complications. She was pretty anemic and her blood proteins were low. She just gave them everything she had. We tried giving her plasma, but it didn't bring it up enough so the vet thought she should go to the ER where she could be carefully monitored. I dropped her there and the puppies came home with me. I talked to them a few minutes ago and she was coming around, I can pick her up ~7:00. I will be much better once she is home.
Anyway, we have 7 girls and 1 boy. Its actually an awesome looking litter. We have 3 flashy fawn girls and 2 flashy brindle girls and 1 semi-flashy fawn girl and 1 white girl with an eye patch. The one boy is white with an eye patch. I'm not real sure what average weights are, but my smallest one is over 16 oz. They sure are hard to weigh wiggling like the do! Everybody ate, peed, burped, pooped and settled in. They are starting to stir again so I will feed again soon.

Completely Boxer Crazy
Oh, I am so excited for you!! So glad everything worked out even though Chloe had to have a c-section!.. I thought there were 11 pups? I guess you really don't know until they are born. When Chloe comes home you will then reintroduce her to her pups and hope she takes to them? Congratulations again!!

Congratulations to you BOTH!! I have to agree with Shanz...i could never give them away...the thought of little puppies crawling all over me with that 'new' smell and puppy breath and too much skin for their little soft wrinkly bodies is enough to make me think i am in heaven early!!
Can't wait to see the pics!!

Snips And Snails And Puppy Dog Tails
As described they have been snipped on their tails and they looked like furry snails but they are puppy dog tails. The crew went to the Vet today had their little tails snipped off as well as their dew claws. I could not watch. Funny I worked as a Vet tech for over 20 years but can't stand to hold my puppies for the procedure! But when they were handed back to me all were sleeping didnt hurt them much at all! Thank God they dont remember what happens when they are so young! All are doing well and have a nickles worth of tail left! Good luck with your litter too and to Chloe thank goodness she is all right. I have a question, My white girl is solid white no markings at all, will color come on her later? I know her nose will get black but what about spots? Will get pictures up as soon as I can! Take care.
