PUPPIES!

Lets start at the beginning...my little dog Jazzy went into heat the first part of December. (We didn't get her fixed because someone told us that if she had puppies she would be better tempered.) I thought she was too young to have puppies so I did everything that I could to keep my dogs apart. Over the next couple of weeks Jazzy kept getting more pregnant looking. I finally took her to the vet 2 weeks ago and after an x-ray and $50 they told me she wasn't pregnant and she was most likely having a "false pregnancy" where her body thinks she's pregnant but she really isn't. So I took their word and told everyone that made a comment about how fat Jazzy looked that she wasn't pregnant. Well last night I went to feed the dogs and I freaked out because I thought she caught a mouse and left it in her kennel. Clay went in there and informed me that she had 4 little puppies in there. So I guess vets don't know everything!

Here is one of the little puppies

Caleb and Jacob think this is the best thing ever!

Caleb thought it was so funny when it was crawling on his legs. It was so cute!

Here is the very nervous Jazzy and Jacob with the puppy.

And this is what Jacob has been doing all day. Honestly I can't keep him out of there.

This morning I took Jacob in and told him to look in Jazzy's bed.

This was our conversation:

Jacob: "Jazzy had birds! Where are the eggs?"

Me: "Those are puppies."

Jacob: " Oh. But where are the eggs? Did Jazzy eat them?"

Me: "Puppies come out of mommy dogs tummies, not eggs."

Jacob: "Oh, after they eat the eggs, right?"

Then we had a little lesson about mammals and reptiles/birds. That was my day!
