I've been trying to get my dog Sunday a suitable partner for the past 2 years, this time I finally got 1 maltese for her =). It was a total new experience for me to take care of a pregnant dog, and having sleepless nights on her predicted delivery day, and seeing the lil pup growing.
Sunday gave birth to Genesis on the 28th of June, 2010, 8pm. I struggled not to fall asleep the night before as she was already start scratching newspapers & cardboards. For those of you that don't know, it is a signal before delivery. However, poor Sunday's contraction was not enough to make her deliver on that night, so she'll have to wait in pain till the next night. (Dogs usually only deliver in the night)
It was my first time being a "midwife" for a dog, the feeling so so special! I guess my mother's instinct is growing, I felt so touched when I see the lil pup start breathing and wiggle after cleaning off the membrane and fluid...Genesis was so fragile in my hand =)
However, Sunday only gave birth to 1 litter, I expected atleast 2 - 3 =(...what a rare sight! Genesis is 1 week old now, and she grows super fast! I will try to post up her growth weekly.
