42 Days Along

Just a couple more weeks, and Dakota should be having her puppies!  We went to the veterinarian today, Miss Dakota had lost 3 pounds last week.  Did you know dogs can get morning sickness - its been so sad!  We're happy to report that Dakota is over her morning sickness, and has gained 7 pounds (for a grand total of 92 pounds).  All those 7 pounds have got to be in her tummy, she seems so round to us.  We are opting out of doing an x-ray the last week.  There's just no real benefit to exposing her and the unborn pups to anything, since we aren't too worried about a guess on the number of pups she's carrying, and she has been getting so stressed at the vet's office that I don't want to cause more stress than she HAS to deal with.

Yay for things going well, and fingers crossed that they continue this way.
