English Staffordshire Terrier?

 

Yes…..
5 females, 1 male….
Last female would not come out, we tried everything….
Only one vet option in San Diego equipped to deal with an emergency c section at $8k, 2 hours away…
We were minutes away from leaving & bam, there she was…..
This started last night, first pup 4 am….
We administered so many drugs into her to keep the contractions going…
Then they stopped for hours, out of no where she pushed on her own & got it done…
X rays showed 4 pups, we pulled 6…

pretty sure chicks keeping the last one & name it miracle….
We used a service called welp wise, remotely monitors all vitals, drugs on hand & gives you advice on proper dosages, god send…

 

Congrats! Hopefully momma dog can rest and recover now. My grandfather used to breed AKC English Staffordshire Terriers many decades ago and won best of show in Oakland, CA. I think the last litter was late 1980s. Nanny dogs, lol. I don't see many English Staffy's these days. Mostly pit mixes.

 

I posted few pages back, while she was pregnant she beat out everyone all 3 days…
Finished confirmation championship & got 2 out of the 3 majors toward her grand championship…..

So here’s “ Miracle”
These dogs look brown but they say color will change to a rich red like mom..

 

My golden found another golden on a walk

anyone here have a Pyrenees? Been wanting one for a while now. This one is available near me and I’m trying to tell myself I don’t need to get a second dog

 

I say go for 2. We had three and lost one, house just doesn’t seem quite as happy.

 

Today is Simbas birthday. He turned two years old today. He got a birthday cookie after he ate breakfast.



He then got another birthday cookie when I got home from work.



I had some pizza for dinner and he got the pizza bones in addition to his dinner. After dinner was done he got his main birthday cookie.




Next month we celebrate his Gotcha Day.

 

Happy B-Day Simba!

 

We're packing the house in preparation to sell and move, and we had to put down our two cats over the last three weeks (17 yr old litter mates). Tessa has been a little out of sorts with all the changes in the house, especially the last few days.

Sent her to day care for eight hours of play.

She hasn't moved since she got home.

 

I’m sure it’s a lot for her all at once but I’m sure she’ll love getting to know the new place!

 

She's been pretty good overall. The boxes and packing materials and general chaos just had her a little unsettled. She likes the new place and will have 2.5 acres to explore compared to our standard sub lot.
