Eight Weeks...........................WOW!

Well we've got to the eight week mark, it has gone sooooo... quickly! maybe not for everyone, and we didn't expect it to pass so quickly.  Now the countdown begins.

The road work has continued this week, but the last few days she's been reluctant to go too far, or too quickly. Eve is continuing to partner her and we've had some nice quiet walks.

On Thursday she had her second Herpes vaccination, the vets were really pleased with her after giving her the once over.

Administering the wormer is continuing to be difficult, she seems to be able to guess when it's been hidden in her food.  Also she's struggling to eat much as she has so little room for food, so she might have a few mouthfuls and then give up.  We may have to resort to syringing it in her mouth again - something we miss to avoid if we can.

We will be setting up the whelping box tomorrow.  Anything that was needed has now been bought, or we already have so we just need to organise things so that they're at hand when needed.  We did nearly have to replace the Nutridrops that came yesterday, it had been put in a cupboard in it's container and in a sealed back.  The cupboard wasn't closed properly and we found Tilly in the utility room licking it up off the floor after she had punctured it.  It has now been rebottled and is safely out of the way.
