Cavalier indoor playtime

The PNW is both beautiful and can be wet at this time of the year. The puppies enjoy time outside in their play yard while it is dry but when it is raining they have plenty of romping time in our living room. It was bitterly cold and raining today so they enjoyed playtime in our living space and of course I had to document them

Enjoy them – 9 weeks today.

Charlotte’s cavalier ckcs puppies turn 1 week

Oh my gosh – can I just say how much I like big bonnie babies? Charlottes babies were born big and hungry and they have not looked back. They are pudgy and strong. I am so so grateful to God after all the trouble I have been through over the last few months.

Without further ado, enjoy Charlotte’s yummy boys – she and Ragnar did great together. I named them after the 3 boys (young men) Charlotte lives with.

Phoenix’s CKCS puppies are 1 week old

It has been a week – a good one but a long one. Phoenix’s puppies coming so early meant they didnt have the stamina to nurse and so couldnt get the calories needed to grow. However, with a little support from me, they are growing well and on track.

Enjoy these individual photos of them. We chose the names based on Charlie’s Angels – the original one 🙂

Girl 1 – Farrah – now 7.15oz

Girl 2 – Kate – now 6.3oz

Girl 3 – Jaclyn – now 8.10

Boy – Charlie – now 7.3oz

Charlotte has her CKCS puppies

Miss Charlotte was overdue and no signs of labor, so I am so thankful to the team at Klahaya Animal Hospital led by amazing vet Dr Anders Thoreson for doing a c-section. 3 bonnie boys arrived safe and sound.

Boy 1 (tri) – 9.0oz

Boy 2 – (light blen) – 7..7oz

Boy 3 – (dark blen) 7.9oz

Mama went straight to nursing and the boys were so happy.

Phoenix has her CKCS puppies

Phoenix went in to the vet today as she had some black discharge and so we decided to run a progesterone and see how she was doing. Much to our surprise she was at almost a 0 and birth was impending – 4 days earlier than planned (and we calculate day 60 not 63 for cavaliers anyway).

With the consultation with Dr Thoreson from Klahaya animal vet clinic, we decided to do a c-section in case something was wrong. I am so glad we did as there was a dead puppy (probably for a few days) and that more than likely spurred her to be laboring early.

The 4 surviving pups were small but strong and Phoenix came through the surgery without a hitch. enjoy

Girl 1 (blen) – 5.0oz

Girl 2 – (ruby with stripe) – 4.25oz

Girl 3 – (ruby with dot) – 5.9oz

Boy (ruby) – 5.45oz

Once home, Phoenix recovered quickly and took to caring for her babies. I love moms who are wonderful and do their job well.

Nellie’s CKCS cavalier puppies are 7 weeks old

I love this age so much – they are now following us when we call and they are playing and exploring. They are just so so adorable and I adore my snuggles with them.

Nellie’s CKCS puppies venture outside at 5 weeks old

Nellie’s pups are now thriving – the pain and agony of Miss Josie 2 weeks ago is a distant memory as the pups are eating and playing and doing all the things they should be. Josie is only a little smaller than her siblings – if you didn’t know how close she came to passing away, I don’t think you would be able to tell.

The weather is still pretty cold outside and so when we hit the 50s today, I decided to take them out for a small 15 min play in the garden. They were a little nervous but quickly felt that they wanted to play and explore. I think in the coming days we will try a few more outside experiences. 🙂

Enjoy the latest pictures of the babies. To be considered for a Kazuri cavalier king charles puppy, please read through our puppy page and fill out a questionnaire. thanks.

The CKCS puppies are 4 weeks old

The cavalier puppies are now thriving again – last week feels like it both just yesterday and also like it was a year ago. It will be too soon if I ever have to do that with a puppy again. But grateful to know what to do.

The babies are wobbly walking around, and starting to play together. They make cute little growls and play bite each other. It is beyond adorable. They are eating mushy solids and really starting to get into the idea that food is awesome 🙂

Enjoy the photos of them this week. We missed last week while Josie was struggling so I thought I would do them on the blue chair. A couple of these puppies will be available so if you are interested, please contact me through my questionnaire

Our little miracle ckcs Josie

Cavalier King Charles puppies are fragile. It’s not uncommon to lose one at birth, or shortly after. They easily get chilled or dehydrated, or just pass away for reasons unknown.

For about 5 days this week, my whole litter had weird diarrhea. Watery, light yellow and very stinky. I took them to the vet several times but their stool samples showed nothing in it. We gave them a long acting antibiotic (convenia) and tylosin and probiotics. We than added Albon just in case there was something we missed like coccidia in the stool sample.

On Thursday of this week, I noticed the littlest pup, Josephine, was not doing well. She wasn’t able to nurse as long as the others and was seeming to be very dehydrated. She then seemed to be aspirating it as she started to foam at the mouth, and bleed from the nose while struggling for air. We started oxygen support and called the vet (again). He felt that she was too sick and the best course of action was to humanely euthanize her and to go to the ER (it was after hours).

I should also add that I was home alone from Wednesday as my husband and daughter went out of state for a college visit.

I called my husband sobbing and he had some good advice. He told me that while going to the ER was good, it wouldn’t be a good idea as then I leave my other 3 pups unattended for an unknown amount of time. He felt I should just love on her while she passed at home. So, that’s what I did.

Meantime, a friend of mine who lives in Spokane and breeds beagles (Dolly from JoyfulNoise beagles) drove 5+ hours to come and help – I had no idea and when she arrived I was so grateful for the help and support. My other friend Becky, who isn’t in “dogs” at all, came over also and brought coffees and made meals – I was so so grateful.

Dolly and I, with the support of food from Becky, subQd and held little Josie and her siblings through the night and Friday. At one point she was floppy and had lost all color in her feet, and tummy – she was all white. Her breathing slowed down to once every 5-10 seconds and she didn’t twitch (normal in a healthy pup). Dolly and I tried to make a plan of what point we should take her to euthanize her – it was very hard to talk about.

Dolly then came across a blog that talked about enema’s and the power they have to hydrate and replace electrolytes. The blog talked about in extreme cases you can do it every hour for 24 hours. So, we decided to give it a go. If you want to read the blog, i will attach it below. The recipe for the emema is:

1 liter of water
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
2 tablespoons of agave nectar
1/2 tablespoon of sea salt
Combine all ingredients in a water bottle and warm and slowly give your dog the amount recommended by the
veterinarian.
WARNINGS DO NOT use alternative sweeteners such as aspartame, sucralose or stevia, as they will not supply
the sugars needed to balance canine electrolytes. Commercial products designed for humans may contain the
sweetener xylitol, which can cause poisoning, seizures and death in dogs.
The fluid MUST have electrolytes! NEVER EVER give a straight water enema. Again, the reason for this is
because a straight water enema will only dehydrate your dog further.

Dolly and I are both believers and so we prayed over her and committed her life and death to God. My mom also happened to call from NZ and she prayed with us also. There was lots of crying – it didn’t help we were running on days without sleep and it was midnight. All of a sudden Miss Josie started to twitch a little – her ears and eye brows. Then her feet and then finally her whole body. We tube fed her a small amount and all of a sudden she was up on her feet. Dolly and I were blown away – we prayed in thanks to God as I can only describe this as a total miracle.

Josie needed support and we continued to give enemas every 1.5-2 hours and fed her very small amounts from tube feeding every 1-1.5 hours. So, literally we were feeding and pottying around the clock. But it worked. She went from strength to strength and by Monday was strong enough to nurse off mom again.

I should also add that the other pups diarrhea improved slowly but surely over the weekend also.

Dolly headed home before a storm hit and thankfully made it safe and sound. And I sit and marinate in thankfulness to the miracle that I experienced and that I am certain to God be the glory. <3
