Waiting for Paika to whelp

While I am sitting with Paika and waiting for her to go into labor, I looked back at some pictures from the past.

This picture shows FC Sabina von Moosbach-Zuzelek who was Paika's great-granddam. She whelped 10 puppies in 2000, and this is how she looked like on the day of whelping.

FC Gilda v Moosbach-Zuzelek whelped 8 puppies two years ago. She is Sabina's daughter and Paika's granddam.
Keena, Paika's mom, had 9 puppies a year ago.
And this was Paika yesterday. My guess is that she will have no more than 7 puppies.

What do you think?

    We really appreciate everybody's good wishes and support. It is Tuesday morning and Paika is not showing any sign of going into labor soon. We will wait and try to be patient.
