They've arrived!
What a good Momma!!! Myrtle did a wonderful job taking care of birthing her first puppies! We have seven new little adorable Boston Terrier babies....six males and one female (Go Winston!) They were born between 5:45pm and 7:30pm tonight. I just made it home in time to move Myrtle into her box before the first one came. She's continuing to take care of all of her puppies like a pro. We are so excited! Can't wait to share more pics in the days to come!

Boston Terrier Puppies!!!
Yes, it's true...Myrtle is going to have puppies! Proud father-to-be, Winston, is oblivious right now to this very apparent truth, but soon he will figure it out. I'm afraid he'll be pretty far down on the totem poll as far as attention goes. Myrtle is doing just fine...yesterday was quite the milestone....we could feel and SEE the puppies moving in her tummy! (We're thinking there's at least four or five.)
Did you all know that from conception to birth puppies only take 63 days????? That just seems incredibly fast, but apparently that's fact. We're not sure when Myrtle was mated, so we're just watching her like a hawk! We're figuring roughly two more weeks. We're going to get a huge box and tons of newspapers ready as well as a little fence for roping off the kitchen area. This will be puppy central with the easy to clean flooring!
We're really excited and very anxious. We just want Myrtle to stay in good health through the entire process and of course we want the best for the puppies, too. I'll post a few pics of Myrtle's ever-expanding midsection (looks like she is walking around with a barrel around her waist).
Wish us luck!
