On September 5
Dr. Stankovics from Straws To Paws did an ultrasound on Chex and confirmed that not only is she pregnant, but there are "at least nine pups, and be prepared for 12 or more." Needless to say, since Rooster turned 13 last Thursday we are thrilled that we not only got three natural breedings, but we will have a nice-sized litter, too. Thank you, Dr. Mary and Deb Leach for all your help with the timing of the breeding!
We are very excited about Chex's first litter. Chex, however, is not just waiting around to whelp, she is still field training every day. We have stopped doing agility with her for a while, so those last two AX legs will have to wait until the pups go home.
