Mom to be update

Korbel's pregnancy is coming along very well. She is just now starting to show a bit. It is easiest to tell she is pregnant by feeling her belly, but she has also lost her "tuck up". She enjoys being the spoiled one in the household and is quite certain she has done something extraordinary to deserve all the extra attention.
After a couple of weeks of morning sickness (yes dogs get it too) she is now ravenous. Mike and I really need to watch our fingers when giving her a treat which is a big change. Until now she has always been the one with the soft mouth. Dogs are amazing in how their pregnancies progress. It seems like the puppies lie dormant for almost five weeks and then in the last three they grow like weeds! Somehow Samoyeds go from being the size of a walnut to one pound wonders in the span of three weeks! About November 3rd we will take x-rays to determine how many puppies we have coming. The whelping box will be set up and then the web cam. Check back often for the latest.
