I was away for just an overnight and I swear Olive's belly grew another two inches! She is waddling and swaying as she walks and thinks twice about using the doggie door. Olive is a very cautious girl by nature, so is a careful and dedicated mom when she has pups. I love her tender qualities.
To date, Olive's pregnancy is 'by the book'. My plan is to have her x-rayed for a pup count on September 17th. Hopefully, she will not whelp before that date. She is in need of another trim and I will tend to that soon. Her coat grows quickly like most doodles. Till then, Olive continues to follow me everywhere and each night she climbs onto my lap to have a belly rub as I watch t.v. Sometimes, I wish I were an Annabelle doodle. :+)
Go Olive! She sounds like such a sweet mom.
ReplyDeleteOlive is a very doting mom and loves being one. This is especially bittersweet as it is very possibly her last litter. I would love to breed her to Capi sometime, but that is a decision for the future. One day at a time!
