Sadie and the puppies are doing great. The whelping box, heat lamps and heaters are keeping them plenty warm, even through nights like tonight when it is going to get down to 10 degrees.
Sadie is enjoying getting out for breaks now, and even had time to roll in the grass and have a little fun. She is pointing at cats again, and locked up on a turtle dove as it walked across the alley! She sure wanted to go get them, but after coaxing, she released her point and finished her outdoor business!!
She is still very protective of the pups, even with Linda and I. She will let us and the kids come up and see the pups in the box, but if we try to take one with us to hold, she must be right by that pup, to make sure we treat her right!
The pups striping is beginning to disappear on some of the bodies, and they look less like "silver-striped" tigers and more like Weimaraner pups! The one pictured here, Miracle, is has a solid silver color on his body, but still some striping on the face. Miracle had the roughest birth by far, but has been an aggressive eater!!
