Miriam's pregnancy diary 2018
22 March 2018 Often a bitch's season will start at the most inconvenient of times and that was certainly the case with Miriam's when it started today.
31 March 2018 Today I've had Miriam's first progesterone test done. Her levels were still low, as I expected so I'll re-test on Tuesday.
03 April 2013 Miriam's 2nd progesterone test and the results indicate she needs to be mated on Thursday. Tomorrow she'll have her first herpes vaccination.
05 April 2013 Miriam and I had a pleasant drive into Derbyshire to visit Lex, the stud dog. They had a successful mating so now all I can do is sit back and wait for signs there are puppies on the way. Miriam's scan is booked for 7 May.
07 May 2018 Miriam has been scanned and there are definitely puppies on the way. She wasn't too keen on keeping still so the photo below shows only one of the puppies.

25 May 2018 Miriam has has her 2nd herpes vaccination today. She's put on a modest amount of weight during her pregnancy so far and is in good health.
26 May 2018 The photo below is of Miriam at 7 weeks 2 days into her pregnancy. Still quite a tidy "bump" so hopefully not a litter the size of Annie's recent one
05 June 2018
Miriam's puppies were a little impatient and the first one was born just before 9.30 last night and the last one just before 1 o'clock this morning. If you are on my waiting list you should have received an email from me (check your junk folder if you don't see it)
