Puppies - Day 3

Summer is now getting braver and leaving them. But as soon as there is the slightest noise or if someone shows an interest in puppies (in the family), she is THERE straight away.

Summer has been more of a concern today. Her temperature is normal. She is still panting a lot and digging, but I'm told that her uterus is still retracting, and will be uncomfortable, so not to worry.  But I do!

The puppies are growing really well, and the girl is taking the lead in the weight department (she was the heaviest at birth - second born).

We put the pups in a solid dog bed with some vet bed in, so we could
clean out the whelping box.  Summer climbed in too!  Aaaaahhh
