I've been laughing all afternoon!

Gibson and Leslie are a big part of our lives.  They are constantly keeping us on our toes, making us laugh, and bringing joy to our lives.  When Leslie had her first litter we were so amazed at how she instantly just "knew" what to do.  She gave birth with no problems and minimal help from us.  It was a long night but all the reading we'd done and the whelping box my husband had built proved It's heartwarming to see her interact with her puppies.  She cuddles them close to her, corrals them for feedings and protects them; making sure Gibson doesn't get too close.  Gibson himself is equally as wonderful with the puppies.  When they are old enough to hold their own, usually around four to five weeks old, we let them begin to play with their dad.  And he is definitely the "fun" parent.  He brings his toys for them to play with, rolls over so they can climb on him and growls playfully to get them all riled up.  

I'll definitely miss playing with all the puppies, but it is quite a an undertaking when they start to run around.  They will get into absolutely anything!  So for now, I'm incredibly excited to greet the next litter that will come into our lives!  I'm sure it will be bittersweet once it's all over. 

Stay tuned for updates~
