Whelping Husky Pups

The last week I have been in Haliburton, Ontario looking after the Huskies that I work with in the winter. Feeding, letting them outside to play, watering and lets not forget, scooping up the poop.

Before I came up, the owners, Tanya and Hank McCready - DeBruin told me I would have to whelp a litter of pupies for them as well. 6 of them.

Well last night was the night, Loretto, the mother did a great job at bringing them into the world, I didn't have to do anything at all, just sit back and watched the show, it truly is an amazing thing to see, that a dog with no other previous knowledge knows what to do when the time comes. Unfortunatly I forgot my camera at home but I took some pictures with my cell phone and will post them if I figure out how.

non-the-less it was a long night and I have only slept about 3 hours since yesterday morning, but I still have to feed the rest of the 140 or so dogs tonight. ( I might actually count them tonight to, cause I forget home meany there are now.)

I am off for a quick power nap then down to the kennel to feed water and scoop up poop

Oh and I am still excited about MY pupy that is coming, soon, but not soon enough!!!!!!
