Mornings With Moula

Dusty has bonded with her puppies and can now take breaks from the box of Muffins. But she prefers to be with them for the most part.   She is still hr goofy self though. She naps when they want to eat. And Even Raven wants to take a peek at the little muffins. All in all Dusty is living up to her Mama and me as being a good mum. I am sure Mum and Dad are very relieved. For us, we wait for Mum to invite us all into the room. But we understand that Dusty needs her space too. Ciao for now my friends...  

Dusty is  slow to really take care of her puppies. Being a first time Mum is tough becase puppies don't ever come with instruction guides. Mum and Dad are alwas running back and forth taking care of Dusty and her little muffins. I don't think the Muffins even know. But I think they know they are loved. We are all staying away from Dusty for a few days anyway. Mum keeps us busy too and the weather is so nice now that we want to spend more  time outside.  We can't wait for these muffins to grow so we can play with them all. Ciao for now my friends...

Dusty is calm and cool these days, unlike Mum who is running around finishing up at school and taking care of us, the gardens and all her students. It seems like she has a lot of balls in the air and she is trying not to let even one fall. There is still quiet time when we get to be outside with each other. And Mia seems to have the relaxation thing down to an art form. The rest of us keep watch for hawks or coyotes or the dreaded squirrel in the back garden. And we watch as Dusty gets bigger by the hour. But as Moula always said,"Keep the balls in the air until you need one" Ciao for now my friends...  

Most days and nights you can pretty much know what to expect. Especially around dinner times and snuggle times and morning chews. But when it comes to puppies, they dictate your every moment. And Dusty's muffins were no different  We all knew it was nearly time for the muffins to appear but we were not expecting it so soon. Dusty took it in stride, she was calm and collected- much more than Mum and Dad although they knew exactly what they were doing and how to do it.  It was expected of them, until it was not. And off to the doctor's they went. We had chewing bones while we waited for news. It turned out that Dusty needed a bit of help- like I needed. Everyone was so helpful with the little puppies! There are five boys and four girls. Three yellows and six black and we are so excited that they are finally here! Dusty seems to be taking it all in slowly.  Let the adventures begin. Ciao for now my friends...
