Today (2019/1/25) at noon, Harley and Tucker had their first tie. This means she’s been bred!
They will do this again two more times over the next two days to help increase the chances of good fertilization and we should have her home by Sunday afternoon.
We are very excited but need to caution that while this is a very positive thing and step two in the process (heat, 3 ties, gestation, delivery, keep pups healthy for 2 months), there are still things that can go wrong so until we actually have puppies to send to their forever homes so there is no guarantee; we are however very giddy and optimistic!
We will confirm pregnancy in a few weeks but cannot get a puppy count estimate until after 55 days gestation.
IF everything goes fine, we should be looking for puppies at the end of March that are ready to go to their forever homes by the end of May. Keep your fingers crossed!!
