Thanks everyone for the lovely comments… Just starting to feel hooman again, just ;).
Ochre is doing very well indeed, and Im sooooo very proud of her. She has settled into motherhood like a real pro...
Bubbies are all gaining great amounts of weight, feeding well, and are just such time wasters :D. Got a friend coming down tomorrow to do the dew claws, something Im NOT looking forward to, although she reassures me the pups will probably cope a lot better than the humans will :).
Will try to get some individual pics of them, either tomorrow or the following day :)...

Wonderful update..can't wait for pictures..you know we are picture hogs..:)
Good luck on the dew claw removal, does not sound like fun times..

Well my gorgeous little bubbies are 6 days old today, I cant believe just how quickly that time has gone :eek:…
They are doing soooooooooooooo well, feeding well, too. In fact they have all doubled their birth weight at either day 5 or 6 :eek:... Im blown away by that... Is that normal ??? Im used to the ACD's doubling by about day 10, if they did it this early, I would be concerned !!!
I have pics of them at 4 days, on my website www.langarni-rajacadoo.com if you want to have a look at them :D:D:D

they are adorable, Jennie..so cute..

Congratulations, the puppies are beautiful

Just a quick update, to say that the pups are 11 days old now, and they continue to do really well :)… I did not enjoy being a part of taking the dew claws off, but I was interested to see just how quickly they all settled down after it was done...
So proud of Ochre, she is doing a great job feeding them and cleaning them. She is having a bit of time out of the whelping box, and yesterday she was re-intrduced to Saba, (who I might add, was VERY pleased to have her company again :)), and she enjoyed the company as well. They even did a housebound B500 ;)... Too cute...
Day 7 pics of them are up on our website :)...

Just a quick update…
All going well. I have the 3 fatties all reach the kilo mark yesterday, while the 3 skinnies are all in the high 800's grams :)
I have 2 week shots of them up on my website, www.langarni-rajacadoo.com They will be 3 weeks old this Sunday. Ochre is coping really well, doing a fantastic job. She spent her first time down in the dog run with Saba this afternoon, and I think she loved the freedom she had… She didnt quite do the B500, I think those large mammaries got in the way :D...
Finally opened their eyes on about day 17-19, very slow compared to the Cattle Dogs who are open between days 8-10 ;)...
Just in the process of thinking up registered names, thats a fun part I reckon :)
-
So happy to hear that all is good..love seeing the pictures, keep them coming.
-
Thanks guys :)…
Kipawa, I have heart failure about once a day, cos my daughters keep taking one to have a cuddle, and the head count is wrong... So there's me shouting... "Do you have ...... ???", Yes, Im giving ...... a cuddle up here" ;)... I wont mention putting all 6 in a blanket and taking them ALL upstairs :eek:
3 weeks old yesterday, new pics up on the website :). I tried to take pretend 'stacked shots' of them all, didnt work ;). Legs all over the place...
-
Thanks Lysh :)…
They are going really well, growing like weeds !!! They are just beginning to play with each other a bit, up on their wobbly widdle legs :D...
They are just starting to be at the fun stage... Love watching them. Real time-wasters too ;)...
Just about to go and find my registered names for them all... Exciting :)...
-
Yep theme is right…
They will be Langarni African ...... The last name will be african, beginning with A, (cos its my A litter), with some sort of applicable meaning :)...
They had their first try at some minced beef last night, and then again this am... LOOOOOOOVED it :)... Ochre was very keen to help them, and she enjoyed cleaning up the mess later, as well :D

Another update…
Puppies are 5 1/2 weeks old now. They are all doing well, putting on weight, feeding well, running around, playing etc, etc. Its lovely at this age, watching their little personalities develop... So cute :)
More pics on our website. They all have their own folders, cos the litters page was just getting too big !!!
Vaccinations and microchip at 8 weeks, and already booked in for their eye exams, when they are 11 weeks old. Thats the problem with living in a very small state, we rely on a visiting eye specialist to come here from the 'big island'... So unfortunately, pups need to stay here for the extra week, just so they can get their eye test done :(... It will allow me to get some extra training, socialisation etc, etc into them though :D... Thats got to be a good thing !!!
Sent off their registration papers, on Monday, so Im hoping for a fast return, (cos I paid extra for this fast-track to be done), so I hope the middle of next week to have them back...
