The happy couple!

Fiia 59 days in whelp. The pups were born exactly 63 days post ovulation.

Happy with her three little bears.

Full of surprises, Fiia actually delivered this puppy in Sisko's dog bed! Here she is giving him a good clean after I moved them both to the whelping box. If you look you can see her contracting. She eventually needed a shot of oxytocin and then delivered naturally the remaining three puppies at the vets. Sadly the little bitch was stillborn :-( Carelle always names the puppies and this time around she decided that the theme should be bears, so in birth order we have : Rupert Bear, Boo Boo Bear (the stillborn bitch), Paddington Bear & Yogi Bear (brown).

WEEK TWO - Pups can all see now & are getting the hang of walking.

WEEK THREE - pups start to play with each other & are introduced to solid food.

WEEK FOUR - the bears now spend time in the garden and live in the utility room.

WEEK FIVE - The puppies are getting fluffier & bolder. They really interact with us & love to explore & bundle!

This is four generations of TabanyaRuu's. Foreground is T. Sisko, to her right is her daughter T. Peppi, next to me is her daughter T. Fiia and in my arms, Fiia's three bears with proud Daddy Salo looking on. Smuu and Tuukka, the puppies Great Great Grandparents would be very proud to see this, I'm sure :-D

Pups having their eyes tested at 7 weeks. They were very good and ever so slightly sick..... They all passed with flying colours.

Having a check up at the vets before leaving for their new homes. All are fit and well.
