Topaz's puppies have arrived!!!

We are pleased to announce the arrival of Topaz’s puppies!!

They actually arrived on Wednesday, May 20 - very conveniently around the supper hour. The first one "popped out" at 5:30, and she was done by a bit after 8pm. The "important people" (i.e., those with reservations on or interest in this litter) received prompt notification. But this time of year is so busy, the rest of you have had to wait a few days to get the news. (As in - Thursday was my daughter's birthday, Friday was house cleanup evening, Saturday we worked at the spring yard cleanup at our church in the morning and ran in the Ottawa Race Weekend 5km in the afternoon, Sunday we volunteered at the Race Weekend handing out medals for the marathon and half marathon... And of course walking dogs, watching and weighing puppies, feeding dogs...)

Anyhow, we have - as predicted by the ultrasound a month ago - 5 beautiful babies!
Puppy #1: born at 5:30pm, male, red parti, weighing 227g
Puppy #2: 5:47pm, male, apricot, 174g
Puppy #3: 7:02pm, male, red, 180g
Puppy #4: 7:08pm, female, apricot, 133g
                (I think she is the smallest puppy we have ever had!)
Puppy #5: 7:51pm, male, red parti, 244g

Pups and Mama are doing well.

Here are a few shots of the beautiful babes!!
