I want to look for a blue male to breed Pandy or one of her pups to (probably one of her pups) but blues are SOOOOO freakin expensive. 

You should be able to find an owner willing to take pick of the litter as stud fee. My brother, he breeds boxers for a living, does it on a fairly regular basis.

I know, but they are soooo cute, I want one of my own lol.

Wanders - of course ... I just have to wait for them to be born. 

I took Pandy out to visit the ladies at the bank today - they love her to visit, but she tends to get car sick.  Apparently, though, pregnancy is agreeing with my baby, because she didn't even act like she was gonna puke, and she was friendly to the one teller that she knows  (not so much with the two that she hadn't seen before lol)

She's still doing well, still gaining weight, although I haven't actually weighed her again.  As it gets hotter, she's remembering the benifits of AC and not running off.  I did have to yell at one of our dogs though, because he was being a pain, and when I told him to leave it, he sat on top of Pandy lol. 

Now we just wait until she's having them, and look for her registration papers in the meantime.

Ok everyone - for those of you who still care  Pandy should be having her puppies within the next 7 days.  We'll probably be too busy with them and work and everything else to post pictures for awhile, but there will be plenty of pics lol

congrats on the impending pups.  my friend is waiting for her chihuahua to present her with four puppies.  she owns both parents and was planning to breed them, but not quite so soon.  guess the mom to be and mr studly had other ideas.  best of luck on the birth, hope all goes very well.

We had the opposite problem - we've been trying to breed them for months and it never caught (Pandy kept going in and out of heat - it was making her sick ... we were hoping that breeding them would fix that).

Yay for puppies!

I know, I'm getting anxious to see them too LOL

I set up the whelping box today - Pandy doesn't seem too thrilled with it, but I'm sure she'll change her mind once she's ready to nest.

it could be the location of the box, too much light, too much activity, she might want a subdued place to give birth.  someplace she normally would be comfortable falling asleep might be a good choice.

It could be that she needs familiar smells in the box too.  Does she have a favorite blanket, toy or pair of your old socks that she drags about the house?

my friend's chihuahua presented her with four little ones at quarter to six this morning, my kids spent the night and got to witness the birth.  i think they're glad they're not girls after watching that.  hope your little ones will arrive soon.

 Another puppy-mill surfaces when there are thousands of pups/adult dogs being put down in the shelters.  Shitzu's have their own rescue if anyone wants to adopt this breed.

Puppy mill?!?!?!?!?!  Until you know our breeding practices, please do NOT insult me like that.  If you have nothing nice to say, then keep your stupid fingers away from the keyboard.  Our dogs are happy and healthy - if either of them had any health issues AT ALL - mental or physical - we would not be breeding them.  Puppy mills breed to make puppies, responsible breeders breed to improve the breed. 

To those of you who aren't rude and who have actually read the posts that I've made - I put a soft blanket in the box for her, and it's in a quiet place.  Where she normally sleeps is in a room with the other dogs - which is definitely not quiet or dark.  I did put one of her favorite stuffed animals in there, as well as one that I used to sleep with.  We figure that when she's ready to nest, she'll be happier with it lol.

PanthersMom - cool on the kids getting to see the puppies being born, although I understand why they are glad they are boys lol. 

Pandy is still running around and being rather active, so I'm guessing beginning of next week now, rather than the end of this week.

some folks just don't know how to deal with some things i guess.  puppy mill, yeah right.  anyway, my friend stopped by this afternoon to tell me about the experience.   her dear sweet mommydog decided to deliver the last two pups in her lap!  my friend never wanted to give birth, let alone be that close to the process, but i think mommydog had other plans, lol.  wouldn't stay in the whelping box, no idea why.

LMAO that's great.  Unfortunately, since dogs almost always give birth at night, I'll probably miss the actual birth.  Holly said she would take pictures for me though.  We're still thinking that there are only 3 - that would be a good, average sized litter, so I've got my fingers crossed for that.

You should post pics of your friend's puppies

You're putting a dog thru the pain of labor/delivery just to make a buck, I don't care how comfy you make Mama it's the same thing. It's all about the $$.

So first you call Sweet a puppy mill, and now you claim that dogs only breed so the owner can make a buck, and wouldn't breed otherwise, because it's painful.

I see ignorance is the norm in "Virginville".

Sure, what do YOU think she's going to do w/the puppies? Not keep 'em, I'm sure.
No need for name calling, this is SUPPOSED to be an adult conversation, however, if you can't particiapte w/o doing it by all means, carry on.

Please don't presume that all people who breed, especially the toy breeds are doing it for profit. The smaller the dog the more possibility that there can and will be problems during delivery, that a cesarean (not cheap) may have to be performed, that complications such as an embolism may occur and that special care needs to be taken during the pregnancy meaning vet bills (not cheap). Rarely in the toy breeds do you get more than 4 to a litter and the norm is actually 2. Not a high profit margin there. I don't believe in indescriminant breeding but you will find more offenders whose dogs have no papers, than you will among those who own registered dogs. Proliferation is rampant in "Designer" breeds, what we used to call mutts, and rarely are the parents AKC or other organization registered.

Spay and neuter your own pets, I have all of mine including the pure bred Akita who was monochid and therefore not suitable for breeding, but don't condemn those who breed pure breds carefully and responsibly, otherwise all there would be are dogs from Puppy mills (often substandard to breed specifications) or Mutts. If you want to protest and stop indescriminate breeding and do something about it, there are many organizations that could use donations to cover low cost spay and neutering for pets and stray/ferals.
