We know several people have been waiting for the arrival of Zelda’s retirement litter. Zelda went into labor normally on Christmas Eve and delivered her first puppy, a little girl, at 1AM Christmas morning. Unfortunately, her remaining 6 puppies, all born through normal labor, were stillborn. Our vet can find no underlying reason as to why the littermates were stillborn, but there was proof that they had not fully developed all the way and had passed at least a few days prior to labor. There are no concerns regarding genetic issues that former adopters should be concerned about, per our veterinarian.
It was a gutting Christmas morning for our family, but we are just thankful that our little Evie is strong and doing well and that Zelda is healthy. At this point, we have not decided if Evie will be available for adoption or if she will remain a member of our family. We thank you all for being a part of our little family through these three litters ❤️
