* Puppy Progress *

Last week was a sad week at the Bauer household.  Monday morning when we woke up about 5 am to check on the pups, Dustin noticed one of the girls wasn't moving.  He picked her up and ran into me saying, "we lost one."  I immediately started crying and tried to revive her at the same time.  She was still warm and had a full belly from eating but by the look of her, she had gotten squished under Hollywood while falling asleep after she ate.
11 pups all passed with full bellies!
Taking care of all these puppies is a lot of around the clock care, especially when there are so many!  Since the passing of the lil pup Dustin and I have been over bearing on making sure they are all okay...setting our alarm to wake up every 2 hours to check on them. 
We finally have a system where it doesn't have us up all hours of the night...Hollywood feeds the pups around 10:30ish (I'm still bottle feeding my little guy) then she comes to bed with us and she wakes Dustin up when she is ready to have them nurse about 3am.  They feed for about 1/2 hour then back to bed until  This schedule has made it easier for all of us!
