Pup-date:

After a sucessful birth and what looked like a promising start, the mother developed eclampsia, then other complications, so is unable to rear the puppies. Donette and I (mostly Donette) have taken on the task of hand rearing, while our daughter looks after the mother. Unfortunately the little girl pictured earlier gave up her fight for survival at about midnight last night. The remaining girl and one of the boys are struggling a bit, but the other two boys seem to be doing well and are in very good voice.

I know this is stretching NQS a bit, but sharing seems to help, so bear with me, please.

There never was nothing.
