No Good Deed Goes Unpunished...

Remember we adopted Megan...

Remember Megan's tatas were getting a bit bigger, but we thought she might be having a false pregnancy...

Turns out we were wrong. It is official... Megan is knocked up. Megan will most likely be having a few (God willing less than 5) puppies sometime in the next two weeks or so - give or take a few days... We were stunned. D spent a few hours muttering.

We feel like fools... fools because unfortunately false pregnancy and real pregnancy in dogs can look very similar. We feel stupid because Megan has been aching for more food and we've limited it because we didn't want her to gain weight too quickly... (that and the only place it looked like she was gaining weight was in her knockers).

Ultimately all we want is for Megan to be healthy and her pups as well... This is definitely going to be an interesting Christmas... guess what FIL/MIL are getting for Christmas... I'll give you two guesses and it should only take you one.

So uhmm if you get a box and it has holes in it after the new year... it's with love from us :)

*In all seriousness we plan on finding loving homes for all of these pups - however many there may be... again hope for few rather than many... 3 - 3 is a good number right? So uhmm know any good dog midwives?

Sent you some info. Good luck! I'm hoping for just a few for you and a few more for me.

We were going to get a dog in the spring when we would be able to spend more time outside getting it acclimated. I wish we could help you out in case she decides to drop a full litter, but I don't think you would want to know that when we get a dog, he/she will have to spend it outside or in my husband's shop. I don't know if weimars make good acreage dogs.
