Bella recently turned 2. She's a very pretty black Lab female I got last fall who had been neglected and when she'd been hit by a car had been left untreated to live or die on her own. When we got her, she was a bag of bones and rather shy. She's now round, shiny, overly friendly and doing great.

I hadn't planned to breed her yet, but my daughters fiancee put my stud in the run with Bella when they were moving things into my house so he wouldn't get out accidentally, and this is the result. Who knew I had to tell HIM when my dog was in heat?)

I did plan to breed Bella after I was done testing her. I have no doubt she will have very pretty pups since she herself is a great dog. This will be the last litter ever of pups from my stud Moses too... so that makes them special in my mind.

Thanks Diana, so am I!
Her body temp's dropped, which is a good sign; and she's doing a lot of panting and pottying which are also promising! She's clinging to my side like a shadow, so I can really see how restless she is and how she keeps repositioning herself and sighing. She's refusing food as well. So all good normal signs of labor beginning soon.

How exciting Tink! More babies to love. These are very special since they were sired by Moses!

Keep us updated please.

Prayers!
