Hilde is looking and acting very pregnant,
she started sleeping in her new "area" in the whelping box last night
quiet place away from the other poodles tucked away in our bathroom to make a little cocoon for her and the babies until there eyes are open and their bodies stabilize they will stay within hearing distance 24/7.


I've got a list started for the nicknames, have lots on the list, as the puppies whelp we pick a name that's our next favorite as they are born, here's the "D" litter list so far, can always change until the puppy is born and labeled a color/nickname to track their progress and growth.  It beats "hey you" or "#__" much more personalized
