Well I don’t really believe in luck but I don’t know what else to call it…..

Last year, we had 2 puppies born in two different litters with cleft palates, they soon died of course. Then, we had Maggie and Izzy successfully bred to our new male, Charlie, and neither ended up having puppies. Charlie was not yet fertile. In November, we tried to get Pixie bred with no luck, she had a strange heat cycle. We tried Muffin next, she also has had a strange heat cycle and I don’t think she is bred, it’s too early to tell. Then last week, Sophie delivered 3 babies, the third baby took too long to come and was born dead. This morning Millie went into premature labor and delivered one little dead baby. She is beside herself crying and mourning for her puppy.

This is the downside of raising animals. That’s for sure.
