Dixie's due date Aug 2, 2010

I am sure you will appreciate an update on Dixie's stud visit.  The breeding looks to have been successful.  Based on the actual mating dates, the due date will be Aug. 2, 2010.  Mark your calendar! 

Dixie won't start looking pregnant until the beginning of July....and then she will grow rather round rather rapidly and by mid July there will be no ambiguity as to her gestational state of being!  We will keep a close eye on her to so we can notify you of any positive signs of pregnancy at earlier dates.  For instance, dogs can also have morning sickness and other changes in appetite and disposition just like people.  

Dixie was 2 days early last year.  We certainly will be watching her very closely for that week prior to Aug 2, since that is considered a normal and healthy delivery time frame.   If all goes as expected, the puppies will be ready for their homes around the last week of September.
