The puppies are here already!! First pictures!!
Today was the day for Lyric's pups to be born! I was expecting them Saturday, but was ready yesterday just in case and now I am so glad! We have 8 gorgeous puppies, 6 boys and 2 girls. The first 5 were all male and after the last litter of 5 males, i was getting a bit nervous! But them 2 little girls came along and I was so happy! The last puppy was a male and was big and hearty.
The first pup was born at 3:30 after Lyric spent most of the night and that day panting and walking around, but there was no whining or distress at all--At 3:00, things got a bit more intense, but I thought we had a least an hour or so before the pups would arrive, so the breeder was on call but not yet here. All of a sudden, Lyric crouched in the corner and the first pup was OUT! I had the phone in one hand to call the breeder and was helping Lyric with the other hand! It was wild! The breeder arrived just in time for the second puppy and was there to talk me through it and help if needed, but I did most of it by myself which felt so great. Lyric had 8 puppies in just under three hours and never made a peep--it was so easy for her!
The pups are all shades of tannsh-red. Two are very light, two are medium and four are more red. Both parents carry for red from a fox red Lab, so we are hoping the pups keep their red hue.
They are all strong, healthy and good eaters! PHEW!!
We were done in time for dinner and my husband, who loves to cook, made us carrot ginger soup and chicken marsala! I earned every bite today!
Oh, and one more thing---Lyric's last litter was born on New Year's day and these guys were born on Rosh Hashana--the JEWISH New Year!

What gorgeous pups. Fabulous. Congratulations to you, Lyric and DH. I guess to the stud too : ) Can't wait for updates on the crew. No doubt it is good luck to be born an any New Year's Day. I'm ready to run up and help if your DH cooks : )
