The eggies are 2 weeks!
You may notice that we are one less puppy this week 🥺 Unfortunately little miss Quiche left us this past week. From the beginning she was a fighter, she had the most difficult start to life- requiring assistance and extra diligence to keep growing and healthy (sleepless nights tube feeding, warming, and loving). All the while Quiche remained persistent! She wasn’t going to give up and neither were we.
However entering week 2, for whatever unknown reason her persistent little fight came to an end. With us by her side, Quiche left us. She never passed the 300 gram range (while all her siblings were quickly approaching 600). We still don’t know why she didn’t grow, I suppose we’ll never know. It’s hard not to think about what could have been, her future family, her adventures, her long life journey. To say many tears were shed this past week would be an understatement.
With that said- we still have 6 VERY healthy and FAT eggies 💖 all of which are already eyes wide open (starting at just 11-12 days!!!) and walking and barking all around the whelping box! These kids are advanced and persistent just like their sister. And we can’t wait for the coming weeks to get to know them more.
