    It looks like we'll be getting a slightly early Christmas present. My Utonagan bitch(Shadow) mated yesterday with a very handsome stud dog. :hapydancsmil:

    Whilst not the best Utonagan for type, that doesn't stop me from loving her to bits, Shadow does produce exceptional offspring judging by her last (first) litter.

    Here's a piccie of the hopefully mum to be.

          Not surprised Redstar, relatively new breed, we're only one of a tiny few breeding genuine Utonagans.

          We can mate Shadow once more in 2 years time then subject to positive health test results, the mantle will fall onto Arwen to progress the breed.

          We had a scare on Thursday, Shadow started bleeding from the nether region and we thought the worse, she was aborting the puppies? another rush to the Royal Veterinary College and SEVERAL ££'s later our fears were allieved, she had an infection and is on a course of antibiotics which seems to be doing the trick.

          Much relieved here :biggrin:

            Watch those antibiotics how they affect the unborn. Hope the vet knows. What goes into mom goes down the umbilical cord to babies.

              A quick update, Shadow is looking like a hippopotamus and starting to "nest" build (so that's where our clothes are disappearing to?). She's also "very lovey-dovey" and demands constant fuss! :doggieshmooze:

              Less than a week to go, getting excited here. :dancy:
