Sherwood's Breeding Plans 2010
-
I had his sperm count done in August. I did not have a teaser bitch but the repro vet was able to collect him. His motility was only 60% but that is pretty good for his age, especially since it was before breeding season. There were 5 natural breedings over a 5 day period. I held my breath for a while but it's obvious the breedings took. :)
60% is pretty darn good for a 15 yr old….. When I used Ricky, I think that his was maybe at best 70%... and we got 4 very nice puppies from that breeding.
December 1st is just about here!

Congratulations Robyn!

Congratulations, I remember meeting Baron and what a sweet and good-looking boy he was. Possibly black pup? (my genetic education was many years ago…)
-
I am 99% sure that Baron is pure-for-red so I am only expecting red/white pups from this breeding. Next year, there may be black pups back at Sherwood. :)

Congrats, We are happy to assist with socialization when the pups come!
-
Very nice Robyn…keeping my fingers crossed for happy healthy puppies and mommy.

Absolutely! All of my local friends are welcomed to visit as often as they want. :)

Congratulations! I know these puppies will be as beautiful, sweet, healthy and special as all the previous puppies that have come out of your kennel!! I can't wait to see pictures. And way to go Baron!!

Cory and Jayden -
Pat,
Baron is Jayden's sire and Cory is full sister to Bindi so you know the babies will be awesome. :D -
Congrats Robyn, and fingers crossed that all goes smoothly!

Any day now….

Oh poor girl :) She looks so uncomfortable…I can sympathize...well, not right now, but you know what I mean...
How many do you think are in there?
-
I'm hoping no more than 4
-
Umm, excuse me Robyn, but maybe Sugar is waiting for Bindi?? Just a thought, you know how these girls are! And Sugar is about the same size as Bindi as well. It'll be interesting to see what transpires in the next couple of days!
-
Wow, she is ginourmous..can't wait to hear of the babies.
-
My first thought when I looked at the picture of the very pregnant Bindi lying on the couch was "How in the world did she manage to jump up there?".

It won't take long now, poor mommy ;)

Bindi acted restless yesterday morning and she didn't eat breakfast. She was quiet most of the day but then did not eat dinner. She started to get restless again about 8 pm or so. The deliveries went smoothly and now we have 5 new babies. :D
10:49 pm red female

Although I couldn't feel any more pups, I stayed up until 4 am just to make sure all was well. I didn't get much sleep so just one pic for now. I'll get individual pics later. :)

Lovely babies Robyn. Now for a well-deserved rest.
