THIS IS SO EMBARRASSING. . . There will be a couple name changes. There. . . that doesn’t sound too bad! 😊
Well, along with the name changes there will be one gender clarification.😬 Let me explain. . .
When the pups are first born, our main focus is clearing their airway, getting them dried off, so they’re not chilled, and keeping mom calm and not stressed.  This focus on keeping things calm for mom continues for the first few days so we don’t handle them too much. Along the way, usually in the first few minutes, we do a quick gender check; Mom is usually nudging us away and there’s a big umbilical cord hanging there, etc. so sometimes we don’t get it right. OK OK, occasionally I DON'T GET IT RIGHT!
I’m sure my friends are rolling on the floor laughing at me, but not a bit surprised by this faux pas. (I get my blonde hair naturally - for the most part).
I’m sorry if this causes any disappointment to anyone. To be honest, it caused a bit of disappointment to me because we were considering HIM as a guardian stud. 🙄

Everyone is doing very well. I have not weighed them yet this morning, but as of yesterday three had already doubled in weight, which is very early. They all are consistently gaining, which is wonderful. Mom is an attentive mother.
A couple notes about this video… I believe she whines because she is a little stressed that they are spread out and she’s not sure how to position herself so they will all gather around. That is why I moved them together, and then she laid down. Also, a mother will stimulate her babies to p*e and poo by licking them. You can see her doing that here. If this doesn’t happen, you can hear more agitation from the puppies and that’s when we intervene and do it with a warm compress or warm water. (We rarely have to do that with Esther‘s pups.) Their eyes and ears are still closed so everything they are doing to find Mom is based on smell and detection of her heat or breath. 💕
