I hate waiting...

As February comes to a close and Rave reaches the halfway mark in her pregnancy, I have come to the realization that I hate waiting. :-)

What can I say? I'm not the most patient person in the world. LOL! This coming Monday, we go back to the vet's for a palpation to try to confirm whether she's pregnant and how many puppies might be in there. If the palp is inconclusive, we'll schedule an x-ray in order to count skulls. ;-)

As for Rave, she's doing just fine. She's eating well (though she did spend a week demanding fish!). She's also bored and is not hesitating to tell me that she does not approve of the forced inactivity. She really is a Princess... ;-)

I need to start thinking about a whelping box...

Three weeks down...

We've hit the three week mark since Rave was bred. Still don't know if there are any pups in there yet. We have an appointment booked in a couple of weeks for an x-ray and we'll know for sure then.

Rave is as happy and cuddly as ever. Though she does tell me that she's bored. ;-)

As soon as we confirm puppies, I'll let y'all know for sure. In the meantime, you'll just have to keep those fingers crossed just like I'm doing!

One week down, eight to go...

Well, one week has past and I am anxiously waiting for the next three weeks to go by. I'm looking forward to being able to take Rave to the vet's for a pregnancy check to confirm that we do indeed have puppies!


Here are a couple of pics of the proud parents (Jim on left, Rave on right)...
