Nellie welcomes her babies into the world

First thing you should know is that dogs hardly ever read the “rule book” about what a “normal” birth is going to be like 🙂 LOL. Cavaliers typically give birth on days 58-60 where another breed might go to day 63.

Nellie decided to wait till day 62 to give birth this time. Last time was day 56. We had been watching her like a hawk and I stayed up several nights with her. On the morning of Aug 14th, she started to really show signs and the first pup was born around 9:30am. Of course, since she was on day 62, I had an appointment to see my vet to assess how things were and a possible c-section at 11:30 – i quickly realized that we wouldnt make it.

The first baby got a little stuck but it didnt take us long to get him warmed up and breathing well. A 7.7oz tri baby boy. My mom is visiting from NZ and so helped give him cuddles and oxygen while I attended to Nellie.

The second pup came soon after, about 9:45am. A tri girl – 6.35oz

An hour later, we saw Nellie straining again. The 3rd puppy came head first (good) but the shoulders got stuck and so nellie was having trouble getting the body out. We gently helped with every contraction and a big blenheim girl 8.4oz was born. She gasped a lot and again my mom was put onto warming/rubbing and oxygen duty.

Another hour later, we took Nellie outside for a potty break walk and she instantly started pushing again. This one was a decent size again, and feet first (normal but harder for mom) and so my husband and I tried hard to coax it out. He was born while and lifeless and so we went to work on rubbing him, oxygen and warmth. His first breath I cried. Another boy – 8.2oz

Unfortunately while we were tending to our last little guy, the blen girl started to really crash. We had her on oxygen and warmth but her breathing become labored and slow and then stopped. We checked her over and she had blood in her stool and so I believe she suffered some internal damage from being so large. It was so heartbreaking to lose such a gorgeous girl.

The three remaining pups are doing great and we are thrilled about that.

Echo’s beagle babies turn 2 weeks

Echo is keeping her little ones very satisfied and so they don’t really want to move around a whole lot yet. Their eyes have tiny peeps so we should have eyes open by the end of the week.

I am loving their bone and their lovely heads – its a very consistent looking litter and I can’t wait to see how they keep developing once they are up on their feet.

Echo and Murphy’s beagle pups are 1 week

Echo is a super mother and has full cream milk – all of the puppies have already doubled their birthweight. She keeps them clean and warm and they are content.

I can’t wait for their eyes to start opening in the next week or so.

They are 2 days and already up almost 2oz each – these babies are thriving thats for sure. I am so happy.

So far it looks like they are pretty consistent and I can’t wait to watch them grow up. We named them after cities around the US

Dutch wins Best In Specialty at CWBC

I am beyond thrilled with Dutch – (now BISS GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin Up Trouble)

Today at the Columbia Willamette Beagle Club he thrilled me by going BOV and then BISS!! With me at the leash!

This was so exciting as he was piloted by breeder/owner – me (Sarah Sweetman). It was also exciting because this is the 2nd BISS winner from our Spencer x Puddin litter. Audrey got a BISS only last month. SO now we have 2 BISS and 2 group placers from this special litter

Dutch was bred by Chelsea Metteer and myself Sarah Sweetman. He is owned by us and Sarah Smith-Falkner.

Thank you to Leigh and Helen for Pud, and to Terri and Dan for the Spencer semen. Thank you to everyone ringside who helped me get dogs and hold dogs while I was in the ring.

It was such a fun day 💖

Unfortunately the judge, Mrs Ann C Meyer was judging Whippets (64 of them) and I couldn’t hang out and wait till she was done to get a photo with her. I am so thankful to her though.

What an amazing weekend of fun, and friendship – thank you John and Dolly for your hospitality and Brianna, Ruthie, Jonah, Hannah, Tina, Lorna and Sam for all the amazing conversations, laughs and camaraderie.

Spokane kennel club didn’t disappoint with large spacious grooming spaces, great vendors, and amazing prizes given to the beagle winners! We won 2 gift baskets – woop woop. Thank you so much!

I was proud of my beagle crew – yes it was a very busy weekend 🙂 .

Buck (15) (Kazuri’s Call of the Wild) went reserve both days.

Johnny (15) (Joyful Noise N Kazuri’s Keeping Up with the Roses) went WD on Saturday.

Audrey (15) (Rosehounds Brown Eyed Girl at Kazuri) went WB/BOW on Saturday.

Willow (15) (Kazuri’s Cover Me In Sunshine) went Select both days for a major towards her Grand.

And in cavaliers, Stevie (Kazuri’s You Are the Sunshine Of My Life) went BOB on Saturday and reserve winners Sunday. (darn he just needs one major to finish – LOL)

My little cavalier puppy Piper (Kazuri’s Play Me Another Love Song) went WB from the BBE class Sunday for her first points and only her 2nd time showing – we unfortunately missed ring time by minutes Saturday as I was in the beagle ring.

I don’t have photos of the dogs but I did of the amazing gift baskets we won with the beagles – thank you Dolly Stearns for putting those amazing gifts together 😀 lol.

Sylvie’s beagle pups turn 4 weeks old

Sylvie’s babies are growing stronger every day. They have started to make little growls and howls and play with each other and the toys in their puppy pen.

Just like the cavalier pups, I took photos of the girls in the basket and then they explored the garden for a while.

I am so pleased with these girls so far

Charlotte and Phoenix ckcs cavalier pups are enjoying the warm days outside

The PNW has a little heat wave and the pups think it’s marvelous. They love playing amongst the play toys and trees.

I just love this stage so so much. I am sad thinking about them going to their new homes in a month.

Sylvie and Tex’s beagle babies are 3 weeks old

Sylvie’s girls are being very satisfied with momma and they are sleeping a lot. They have only just begun to get up of their bellies and onto their feet. I tried to give them solids, but decided they were too full. 🙂 It took 4 or 5 tries before they started to take interest. very unusual for beagle puppies. LOL

Enjoy the photos of them from this week.
