Juno is getting close!


Juno is due in 9 days! I am so excited! She is coming from her guardian's home next Monday and she is getting her xray on Tuesday to see how many puppies she has inside. Juno has a wonderful guardian home and they are going to miss her while she is here, but they are welcome to visit whenever they want. Juno was born here at our house and she has come to visit so she knows us and our dogs. She and her babies will be loved and pampered immensely!
The whelping box is set up, the linen is clean and washed, and the camera is ready to go for lots of wonderful pictures!
I can't wait!

The cute picture above was taken by her wonderful guardian mom, Cherie!

Juno's pregnancy is confirmed by ultrasound!


I took Juno into the vet for an ultrasound and we have babies growing! We can't tell at this point in the pregnancy how many we are having, but we saw several little sacs and we saw heartbeats, too! I will get an xray when Juno is about 58 days pregnant to see how many babies we will be having. She is about 26 days pregnant right now and her due date is when she is 63 days pregnant. I can't wait!

Juno is in heat!

Sweet, beautiful Juno recently finished all of her genetic testing and passed with flying colors! She decided to come into heat yesterday so we are planning on breeding her to a parti boy from Pine Lodge Labradoodles. If all goes well, she would be due at the end of August and the puppies would be ready for new homes mid to late October. These will be beautiful parti labradoodles that should all have great coats! We should have brown and white and possibly red and white parti pups.
Stella has been here with me this week and she is a total sweetheart! She had her CERF eye exam today and has perfect eyes. She is going in for her OFA hip and elbow xrays tomorrow. Two of her sisters have been tested already and they both have OFA Good hips and normal elbows. Hopefully beautiful Stella will follow in their footsteps!
After Juno is bred, I will get an ultrasound about 25 days after her first breeding to confirm the pregnancy. Her guardian mom, Cherie, is just as excited as I am for these babies! She even has names picked out already for the babies!
