Stella has come through for us this week. We had just about given up all hope of having puppies, when Stella's belly started to swell a few days ago. We bred Stella in March to a lovely male (Joey), but due to life craziness (multiple exams, papers, Michael's accident and packing to go to Japan) our breeding timing was off and all of the experts (mostly the reproductive vet) felt we had "missed" this time around due to poor timing.
All that is out the window as we were all happily wrong. Today our vet confirmed via ultrasound that Stella has got 4 or more pups in the oven. We are currently taking guesses as to number, color and sex of the litter. If you got one let us know!
Puppies are due in May, just 3 short weeks from now. We'll keep everyone posted as events unfold. See below for pictures of the pleased parents.

Congratulations, Cindy and Mike! Wish I could take one, but 2 is Al's limit. Will you still be going to Japan? I miss you guys.
