Ok heres the 1 week old photos as promised. I hope you enjoy! The one with the dark blue collar is the little miracle who i revived and are thinking of keeping! Ive been tempted to name him, but i know as soon as i do, thats the decision made lol!
They're looking good. Lovely that the family chose the names, too. (I think you'd better just get on and give a pet name to the dark blue collar one!)
I missed the names! Brilliant!Glad you are keeping pup number 7 ....he's got got to be special.They all look to be thriving,hope Jet is doing ok too x
Just want to ensure (as admin have NOTED a NUMBER of times)... that All tests have been done on the Sire but unfortunately Jet has NO testing done. I hope this is noted by all members and therefore we do not need reminded AGAIN that Jet had no testing! Thank you!
Having you join the forum and discuss the circumstances of Jet's breeding,the preparation for her puppies and the care of the litter has been valuable.The Labrador Site and it's Forum has evolved from a small family run platform into the incredible size we have today.We are blessed to have a massive international,multicultural membership who bring a variety of issues and concerns onto the Boards.The volume of posts and the subjects they cover ensure that The Editor and The Moderator Team are continually discussing the very best ways to ensure an environment where Members and Visitors can come to seek the safest,most responsible advice to their queries.Sometimes we come up against an issue we haven't been presented with before as has been the case here. I've been a Member here for 2.5 years and I've never been involved with the discussion of an already pregnant bitch and the birth of her puppies. You joining us on the Forum has created the need for us to make some changes to our Rules and to clarify the views of the Labrador Site to protect other Members/Visitors who will be following your thread.We need to be clear what practices we endorse.You have been the member that has presented this situation and given us cause to review.Whilst you are posting and your thread has been proceeding we have had to break in and I know that has upset you....We've given careful,very careful thought to creating guidelines for similar situations in the future and that has resulted in the establishment of the statement that has now appeared at the start of your thread,in your case this has been retrospectively,but in future cases it will be put up as soon as the Post becomes known to one of the Moderators. Your puppies are beautiful,you are doing a wonderful job supervising their care....I think your account of their delivery was amazing. Best Wishes Angela
Thanks Angela, this will be my final post on the matter, as i have enjoyed sharing the experience with all you and have ADMITTED i made a mistake, but it wasnt the initial post that upset me, it just seemed that everytime i posted or updated the thread, then my failing was brought to the forefront yet again. All members by now should know my failing and i do hope that from the pups find new homes onwards that i will be able to report back to you all with amazing news to how all the puppies are healthy and living full lives. Right, im drawing a line under this now as im stressed with puppies and bitch care, ive had loss of sleep due to diarrhoea and vomiting for 2 days lol. Ill post new updates this week! *handshake*
We would love to know how your puppies get along, when you have the time It's been fascinating following your journey with Jet. Thanks for sharing it.
Sorry to hear you have been unwell. You could have done without that on top of puppy rearing. Hope Jet and the pups are all good and you manage to get on top of things - please keep us "ahh-ing" at your fabulous puppy porn x (particularly Flash Gordon)
I would also love to follow the pups progress , please let us know how they are when you can . Hope you soon recover .
Sorry to hear you were poorly that's last what you need now... but on the practical side better now than when pups are older & require more from you than from mum I hope you're better soon Looking forward to see some more puppy pictures Have you got any homes interested in them yet?
Ive had 4 enquiries already, 2 of them wanted priority and to come now and give a deposit. Ive explained to them that no one will be near the pups until at least 4 weeks. Then i want to have a chat via phone first before considering them for a viewing! Oh and could you email me that questionnaire when you get a chance? I pmd you my email address. Thanks!
Well done on sticking to your plan for vetting prospective puppy buyers If anyone is not happy with your approach then you know they are not a suitable home.
I have just emailed you - I hope that will help you with finding good homes for your pups I let people visit my pups at 3 weeks but with very special precautions - no shoes, good disinfectant on hands etc but that's everyone's decision
