Well they all arrived safe and sound. Obviously Tali had read the same puppy books as we had because she did every thing she was supposed to and in the right order. The final result were five lovely Scotties, 3 girls and 2 boys - 3 brindle and 2 black. (at least as far our inexperienced eye can tell) Six people tied for first place on the puppy sweepstakes and £60. is winging its way to the McMillan Nurses. A big thanks to everyone who participated.
The puppies are growing, practically before our eyes. Tali has taken to motherhood like the proverbial duck. She is either sitting patiently feeding them, or quietly cleaning them up. The vet bedding (the white fur-like stuff in the pictures) seems to be worth its weight in gold. Everything stays remarkably dry.
