Shelby started having puppies at about 5AM this morning.  I woke up to the sound of her whimpering in a laundry basket she’d nested in next to my bed.  Next thing I know there’s a puppy!  I told Poppy I’d try to get a video of the birth, but things went a little awry so that didn’t happen.  Shelby was a little over-zealous in cleaning the first pup and wouldn’t let him nurse, then when the second pup came out she jumped out of the basket and ran under my bed and would not come out.  I had to break the sac on the 2nd pup and clean it myself with a towel then I had to waggle him under the bed like a treat trying to get her to come out.  When she wouldn’t, I started to take the bed apart and by the time I was lifting up the box-spring she decided to cooperate.  Then I had to put the bed back together and I’m rambling because I’m tired :P

Long story short…3 girls, 2 boys, no video.  But I promise video of the puppies themselves asap.  I’m going to recharge my batteries right now.
