Puppies are here!

Maggie our four year old, Old English Sheepdog gave birth to her puppies last night! She had ten in the litter of which eight survived. The first puppy was born about 5:00 pm and the last puppy was born at 1:00 am. We finally went to bed at 5:00 am after making sure there were no more puppies on the way. There are five dashing males and 3 charming little females. Maggie and her pups are doing well. Rex (3 years old) and Olive (2 years old) think the puppies are way better than anything they got at Christmas or their birthday last month!

Here is some information from the American Kennel Club on Sheepdogs.
