WE MAY HAVE A FEW DAYS OF MINIMUM EFFORT
most everyone here has some version of sniffle cough and SNeeze- but we are still on our feet.
****I REMEMBER THE MYTHBUSTERS TESTING THE DISTANCE THEY COULD SNEEZE- AND IT WAS OVER 10 FEET.
****************
maybe today is the day-- to get these crazy pups out of here...
if we split the group and have 2 bunches maybe we can get them onto the deck.. which would mean the house dogs can get back in here... they need some paw holding... and these pups need one on one...
these pups-- it is like too many rats in a cage-- they bicker-- so we need to spread them out.
and the need to shuffle them on to bigger things is mandated by the 2 who might be preganat..
and i have to qualify that-- neither female behaved in a typical manner---- could be neither is pregnant.
noel who was bred last year and did not conceive-- THEN THIS YEAR accepted the male on about day 9 and was still accepting him about day 15-- not normal
then olive accepted BUMPY about day 8 - wanted nothing to do with him for the next week and all of a sudden walter got in the act at about day 16 --2 FATHERS 1 LITTER IS POSSIBLE-- THEORETICALLY THE AKC CAN TELL -- WITH DNA-- WHICH THE FATHER IS.
HOWEVER THE $40 DNA TEST THE AKC HAVE EVERYONE DOING JUST PROVES IT IS A DOG--- IF YOU WANT TO KNOW PATERNITY IT IS ANOTHER $120 EACH
IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT WALTER HAS FOR PUPS... HE IS SOME BIGGGGG DOG. AND HIS SISTER IS A FINE LOOKING BEAST TOO... NEXT YEAR FOR HER.
the next fact is that george says he can feel for pups between day 25 and 30 AND GUESS-- OR HE COULD DO AN ULTRASOUND ($$$) AND WE MIGHT HAVE A BETTER IDEA....
BUT KNOW ING DOES NOT CHANGE A THING SO IT REALLY IS A WASTE OF MONEY --- IF WE JUST WAIT ANOTHER COUPLE WEEKS IT WILL BE OBVIOUS
MEANWHILE MEGAN THINKS NOEL HAS A DEPRESSION BETWEEN HER NIPPLES-- WHICH MEANS THEY ARE GROWING DOWN
AND HOW FAR DO THEY GROW DOWN????
I MEASURED MOXIE'S MILK BAR AND THE BACK ONES WERE 8" BELOW HER BELLY WALL,,
********************
THE FOOD AND FUEL BILL FOR JAN I S PAID--- WONDERFUL-- WE WILL SH#T ON SUNDAY AT 3:PM...
WE CAN TRY AND GET THE EXPLORE CAMERA WORKING IN TH E GUEST HOUSE AND DO THE SH#TTING THERE... IT SHOULD BE POSSIBLE.
******************
AND THEN THERE IS THE END OF YEAR BOOKKEEPING ALWAYS SUCH FUN... ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS NOT ONE SURFACE ON WHICH TO SPREAD BANK STATEMENTS ETC..
************
NO WAY DO I WANT TO STOP TH E INFLUX OF EQUIPMENT ETC BUT WE NOW HAVE 2 OVERFLOW ROOMS ON THIS FLOOR ALONE
THE MOP WE GOT YESTERDAY WORKED WELL AND THE HATS AND THE SNAPS AND THE FOOD.. IT IS WONDERFUL
THOSE DOUBLE ENDED SNAPS TAKE TH EPLACE OF THE TYE WRAPS-- WE CHANGE CONFIGURATION SO OFTEN .-- NOTHING IS PERMANENT.
*********************
I AM TRYING TO INSTILL ON THESE PUPS THAT THEY MAY NOT CHEW ON EACH OTHER STARTTING TODAY
I HAVE MY HANDS FULL
