BLESSINGS. & FEAR.
King Of Zion LIFE NOW.
I am sitting by the whelping box (box where puppies are born) … puppies are coming into this world and I feel blessed and little scared …
Scared for the mammas.
Scared, that every baby will be healthy.
Scared, that I am missing too much training.
Scared, if every decision I make - is right …
Leaning into faith - knowing we are in God’s hands.
Jesus is right here with us.
Praying for wisdom.
One litter born 2 days ago.
Another today.
Sleep is little,
rest is rare,
high alertness is present.
Realizing the mind is tired,
emotions are heightened …
And holding on to peace 🕊️
Attending to manna’s and babies every
2 hours the first couple days at least,
checking that nobody is tucked in the corner getting cold,
everyone is eating,
doing best to avoid possible have tragedy …
Feeding mammas with special food,
checking milk production,
checking temperature especially since the placentas were not coming out with the babies …
having million thoughts …
evaluating constantly …
This is our litter ~ Z ~ …
We have gone thru full alphabet.
I forgot and skipped letter “Q” 😂 so this is
25th litter.
It has gotten easier and skills have grown.
But loving our girls the way I do - my heart is trembling every time …
All this …
While Alonzo is caring for the kennel and rest of the dogs …
Colton our kennel help is coming tomorrow - we love having him here - great young man always smiling and on time
helping with task around here …
Training and getting ready for trial is paused.
We will resume after the litters are born and settled.
The boys (Legado and Luigi ) are probably wondering what’s going cause they have not seen me since Monday.
Before that - they trained 2x per day and tracked mostly twice per day too - they probably think they have vacation, which they kind of do … 🤣
The positive is - that Alonzo is putting some weight on them.
They were getting lean from tracking working hard…
… with IGP trial coming up and same weekend breed survey - another balance to juggle for them to be athletic, light to jump easily
But full enough for show condition …
They are also resting which is good as they were getting little tired.
Natiz is probably mad 😠 😆 (joking), thinking she was doing so good to make me happy and now I left her😆
Her BH- VT is coming up too!
She has been doing great and learning fast.
Oh! I pray that we will resume with great success.
We have trial in March in Dallas and another closes trial is 16 hours away in May which is not option for us…
I do hope and pray we succeed.
Puzzling all together with puppies,
shows, training, trials and also
personal life to balance …
it is rather challenging task ❤️
Our job - never ends.
It is 24/7 … like a farm …
Every day the dogs must be attended to …
Fed, cared for, loved on …
Challenging yet incredibly rewarding …
Many sacrifices have to be made …
Then great love is reaped. 🩷
Biggest shot out to Alonzo - holding the fort while I am tucked in with the girls. ❤️❤️❤️
