What a night last night! Mini Goldendoodles born, and mummy did NOT want to be within the whelping area and kept carrying her babies out to the tile floor. 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ we think it was potentially the heat (outside, and inside the whelping area, as we have heat lamps on in there too) summer is a challenging time for us, trying to keep pregnant mums cool, but puppies warm. We had to just leave her where she was most comfortable as we really were fighting a loosing battle, and mum was getting more annoyed and distressed with us trying to put her and babies back in. Once she finished pupping and had cooled down, we then transferred her and babies back in, and she is very content now.
What a night. But we have 6 beautiful healthy looking babies, all appear to be feeding well, and doing well, however, during this very important time, we watch them all, and we do not start allocations until they are over a week old. The people on our current waiting list will be notified in due course.
Off to sleep. 😴
