Pups

We have five new little puppies! They came as quite a suprise. The mommy-daddy union occured while we were out of town, so we were rather awe-struck when our little lady dog had four beautiful little pups. Watching the birthing process was such a learning experience. We watched the birth, mommy pup eat the amniotic sac from around the babies, chew the little umbilical cords off, and then lick the little ones until they took their first breath. I know it sounds disgusting but it was such a miracle to witness. Here are a few pics of the precious little pups.
