A light shines thru the grey clouds...
« on: December 17, 2008, 09:39:28 am »
with the darkness floating all around from our beloved boys passing, we come with some good news...
If any of you remember the trip we took in November? Well, after a month of being anxious, we have confirmed today by ultrasound that our little Jigsaw is pregnant!
Here is a photo of Jigsaw and her husband, Cummins.

Awwwww...Jo  :-*

Jigsaw & Cummins will have the healthiest, most beautiful puppies ever. The puppies will have a very special way of helping to fill the emptiness Memphis left behind.

They are truly a beautiful couple.
Can't wait to see their children!

Congratualtions! I am surprised you bred her to a male without Championship  :-\ Plus, there is always AI  :)

Congrats on your prospective litter!  I don't see a problem on breeding before completing a championship. If its a good cross its a good cross.  If the timing is right and all else is good to go better to go with a live cover.  AI, particularly in maiden bitches, actually has a pretty high failure rate- more so than a live cover.

Surgical Artificial Insemination, with 3-4 progesterone tests, is as close to natural breeding as it can be

Wow - Cummins is quite the handsome, well, Stud. :D I can't wait to see puppy pics. I'm already imagining the markings. Puppies - puppies - puppies - can't get enough puppies!! I bet Jigsaw will be the best mommy.
