Multi Gens 3 weeks old...

Wow what a difference a week makes. They all look and act like puppies now..climbing and playing and causing trouble already!! Boy that Peppermint Patty has to be tough to keep up with all those boys!

Everyone was weighed today and new photos were sent out. We will start giving them some formula now just to get them used to drinking but still nursing from Mama as well.

F1 GOLDENDOODLES DUE 9/17-COUNTDOWN 4 weeks to go...

F1 Goldendoodles are due in just 4 weeks! WOW! We still have reservations available...

Multi Gens 2 weeks old...

Well the puppies are two weeks old. All their eyes are open and they are starting to walk around instead of slither! Good news for me because now when they get "lost" in the box at night they can find their way back to Mama without waking me up! Bad thing though is Hershey (trouble maker!!) has found the exit and is trying to climb out already!!!
Everyone got weighed and dewormed today. Of course my camera battery dies in the middle of the photo session...so pictures will be up on the web later today!

Multi Gens 1+ weeks...Eyes are opening...

The puppies are starting to open their eyes! YEAH!! AS of today both Hershey and Musketeer have theirs open! Hopefully now Hershey wont get "lost" in the whelping box so much now, and cry and cry and wake me up at night to move him!!!

OMG! All this time and I just now figured out I could add a picture to my blog!!

COOL...

Multi Gens 1 week old...

Well today the puppies turned one week old. Not many changes in their appearance. Eyes and ears are still closed, they were all weighed, got micro chipped, and received their collars. New pictures are posted on our website at: www.mustardseeddoodles.com.

Multi Gens HAVE ARRIVED!!!

Wow, just one day after their due date too. SO much for the temperature thing, right? She was acting weird though and I DID mention that yesterday.
Well they arrived in this order:

3:28AM Male, Cream, "Twix"

3:41AM Male, Cream, "Musketeer"

3:53AM Male, Tan/Fawn, "Hershey"

4:18AM Female, Black, "Peppermint Patty"

5:30AM Male, Black, "Nestle"

5:36AM Male, Tan/Fawn, "Snickers"

The chocolate candy bar names was due to the fact we were EXPECTING chocolate doodles!! Cadence tested homozygous for brown, so I guess just a bad roll of the dice that we didnt get chocolate expressed. I say expressed because several carry the brown gene we can tell because they have the "rose" colored nose.

Picture Day will be Wednesdays so our buyers will get new photos every Wednesday as well as our website will be updated. These beauties will be ready to go home on or after Wednesday September 30th.

Call or email if you have any questions!!

Multi Gens COUNTDOWN DUE DATE!!!

Well unfortunately I dont think it will happen on the due date. I was hopeful though as she has been a bit odd acting-hiding in dark corners and not moving around much at all...but temp is 99.1. No real nesting behavior yet either. However this is good news for me as we have errands to do today and I wouldnt get them done if I thought it was close.

See you tomorrow...same bat time, same bat channel!!!

Multi Gens COUNTDOWN 1 day...

ok, now that we have the ACTUAL number of days left correct...
Temp is 99.6 today. DOubt they will be born on their due date. Last time she was overdue by three days when she went into labor-so ...we WAIT....

OMG-Where did I learn to count???

How come nobody mentioned that my addition was off??? If the pups are due on August 4th and today is August 2...that means two days....NOT four. I went back and checked my records...due date is the 4th so only two more days to go-WOW!!! She could go at anytime now...now I am freaking out...I thought I had four more days...YIKES!

OK, I am calm now. Its all good, I am already ready anyways so no biggie...whelping box is and has been in place, all my supplies are out, Jazzmine is ready I think...She has been acting a bit weird today.

Good News: Only have to wait 1/2 as long as I was previously reporting!!!

Multi Gens COUNTDOWN 4 days...

Temp today is 99.3. She is starting staying in the corners a lot lately-trying to get some privacy. No nesting behaviors yet. Most dogs dont show any outward signs though until just hours before birth...thats why we do the temperature taking-so we dont miss it altogether.

My calendar is as clear as I could make it...Big kids are going to 4H camp...little kid may or may not make soccer and Karate this week...all depends on Jazzmine. I wont leave her alone if I think there is a chance it may happen soon. On a side note we will be plugging in an incubator and trying to hatch chickens at the same time also ...maybe I should start a blog for them too!!

Multi Gens COUNTDOWN 5 days...

Temp today is 99.8 so no puppies tonight or tomorrow morning...

Not too much longer to wait though!!!
