American Muscle Week 1 Update

All of the puppies are doing great this week!  Everyone got a trim on the tail and dew claws removed, but other than that, puppy life is pretty easy.  The pups gain about 2 ounces per day, which is well above the 1.6 oz minimum that we shoot for.  So, enough of that.  This is what everyone wants to see!

Puppies!!

Broken Bow Kennels is thrilled to announce the arrival of our American Muscle litter.  This was a litter of 7 boys and one brute of a girl.  The theme seemed only appropriate with a make up like that.  Shai labored for only about 5 hours and was calm and healthy for the duration.  Here are the boys and girl.

Puppies-The First Look

We went in to see the vet for the last visit before the pups arrive and finally got a look at the parasites that have been taking over Shai's body.

 

 

The vet says 7, which is a great number!  This ensures healthy, well sized pups from the beginning.  We can't wait to see them in one short week!

Counting Down

We had a great weekend out with the boys.  This will probably be the last one until the puppies arrive and Shai is probably grateful for that.  She is getting huge!  But in spite of the huge belly, she is a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon first!!  One thing we can never talk her out of (and who would want to) is finding birds.  So here she is, belly and all, pinning down a rooster pheasant on the river bank.
