Lyric's pups are here--Pictures!! UPDATE!
UPDATE:SEE MY LATEST COMMENT FOR TODAY'S CLOSE-UPS!
Wow--what a long two days--Lyric's labor started at around 12 am on Wednesday Feb 6th--she kept me up all night (didn't want to leave her alone just in case) and then I stayed with her all thru the day on Wednesday--it continued into the wee hours of Thursday morning--and she paced and panted but no progress....finally at 2 am, I said"OK Lyric, let's get in the whelping box and get this started". I went in and sat with her in the box and within 10 minutes her water broke--it is as if she was waiting for me to tell her what to do!
The first pup was born by 2:15 am--a lovely apricot female and then 5 more followed until 6:30 AM--3 boys, 3 girls--2 champagne colored, all others shades of apricot--so.... where is #7? We could clearly see 7 on the Xray--we waited and waited--Lyric rested comfortably while the pups ate and we saw a minor push now and then, but no pup--we were starting to get a bit concerned about this last pup--actually a LOT concerned and finally gave Lyric some oxytocin to increase the strength of her contractions at noon--10 hours after this all started. !5 minutes later, a beautiful healthy male pup came into view--PHEW!!!!!!! Lucky #7!! The breeder and I both cried --we were so happy to see that all was well...and everyone is doing well!
Here are some early pics!

I bet Lyric is glad this will probably be her last delivery :) That last little guy was happy where he was at and didn't want to come out. LOL So glad Lyric and the pups are all fine.

Congratulations, all beautiful little babies. Lyric looks beautiful and content with her new little bundles. So are you naming them after the 7 dwarfs, the 7 wonders of the world, the group of 7, the 7 colors of the rainbow, the 7 continents, the 7 days of the week, well you get the idea. :>)
Get some rest! Busy days ahead!
