Puppies 2023 - Birth

Harper’s puppies were born on Tuesday, April 25, 2023 at home.  Contractions started at 4:03PM, and the first puppy was whelped at 4:30PM and at 7:30PM the final one, a very busy 3 hours!  There are 4 boys and 3 girls. Unfortunately one did not make it, so Harper ended up with a perfect 50/50 split with the boys being Sunflower, Hyacinth, and Zinnia, the girls are Violet, Lilly and Tulip.

Kiergan had one “little” boy on Friday, April 28, 2023 via c-section.  Riker was 10.5oz!
