Day One in the Life of 14 New German Shepherd Puppies


The birth went well. In total there were 8 girls and 6 boys. Bailey was acting strange for a day before the birth. She kept going outside, was antsy all day long, and kept us up all night. We woke to her cuddling (which she never does), and I woke up with her lying on my pillow. Basically, that meant something was up. AT 8 30 am, the first puppy came out. He was a big male. Bailey did a great job. She cleaned up everything, chomped off the umbilical cords, and by noon, all 14 puppies were out...and hungry! Here are a few photos, including a shot of the first feeding.
