Pearl

Novemer 26th seems far away

     So -  here are a few photos of Pearl over the last couple of weeks. Many are asking if she is pregnant. At this point only she knows, and Pearl is keeping her secret close to heart.  I will say this.  She is starving, even more affectionate, there is swelling in certain areas, and other dogs react differently to her, more sniffing.  I don't want to say YES she is pregnant, if she isn't I would be be bummed.  I will say, the odds are good, and I have a "feeling".  I have posted a few photos from the past two weeks, you can judge for yourself.  At this stage, dogs generally don't show much.

This pose and expression seems to be Pearl's outlook on things, not the most flattering picture. 

I get this type of photo after she has been bred and I try to record potential progress.

Is that a belly bump???

Love snuggles photo with her sweetheart, Nash

She does this alot lately.

It's ZIggy

      While we wait for weeks to pass before the pregnancy check appointment for Pearl, Nash's sister Ziggy has come to visit, with her house mate Jerry (an elderly poodle).  Ziggy's precense makes me long for my Willow.  Ziggy's beautiful coat reminds me so much of Willow, the thought of her DNA, the building block of life,  exist with in Ziggy warms my heart.  A few family photos of Ziggy with her Niece's

Ziggy sits funny, because he has metal pins in her hind legs, after an accident at 9 month old.  

It hasn't slowed her down in the slightest!
