After a very long night of labor. DeeDee has 9 puppies - 5 males and 4 females.
I put different colored ribbons on them to make it easy to identify each pup for daily weigh ins and taking notes as I observe their behavior.
The boys wear Red, Navy, Hunter Green, Purple and Black. The girls wear Pink, Pale Blue, Light Green and Lavender.
Red and Navy appear to have liver/brown noses. All the rest appear to have black noses. Sometimes a pup with a very dark brown nose will fool me into thinking it is black. Time will tell if what color spots the pups will have.
DeeDee ate her first meal in over 24 hours. In spite of the fact that she was up all night, she is not getting much rest now that she has 9 babies to attend to.
