Olive (the mom) has a temp of 103.5F (norm is 100F-102.5F) and has been taken to the Vets.  Hope she'll be OK.  :(

 servicedogproject WORKED OUT FINE BLESS GEROGE FROM THE DANVERS ANIMAL HOSPITAL - SUNDAY NIGHT-- WE DID XRAY AND THERE WAS ONE PUP STILL IN THERRE--TO LEAVEHER TIL MONDYA SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY UNCOMFORTABLE ALL NIGHT-- SO HE GAVE HER A SHOT OF CALCIUM AND OXYTOCIN AND WHILE HE WAS SHAVING HER LEG FOR AN IV, BUD SAID "THE PUPPY IS COMING OUT.." NOT LIVE-- BUT OUT OF THERE !! SO WE ARE HAPPY AND HOME..ALL THOSE RETAINED AFTERBIRTHS STILL HAVE TO APPEAR... BUT SHE WILL BE ON MEDICATION AND SHOULD BE FINE.

Leaving the spelling just as Carlene likes it...

I didn't think it would be viable after all this time.

Oh...and another bit...# 3 Emily turned out to be a boy, so is now named Hugo!

I can't watch at work but they are scooting around well enough now that they're probably just off cam.

They had a big gathering 10/5 & 6...and I decided to go...

9 of the 11 4 day old pups

Me feeding a cookie to the eldest house-dane, Bailey

Me buried in 4 month old puppies

It was most definitely cool! Who knew scooping poop would be so much fun!

Funny, it's a year ago today that the first litter of 8 we saw were born there...

The dog on the right with the collar is the white & black & gray (harlequin) pup from that litter. His mother is the next adult dog to the left.

Well, I followed them during the winter pretty closely. There have been 6 litters since I've been watching them and they worm their way into your heart. I didn't go there much during "our" season, but I did keep an eye on them.

The organization does really good work. The pups will all be trained to be service dogs. Most will be balance dogs for those with ataxia...MS...Parkinsons...a variety of other movement disorders. Any that aren't suited to balance work will be therapy or companion dogs. Many of their dogs go to veterans with TBI and PTSD.

Sort of similar to here, a great community has grown online around them. They involve the camera peeps in the training and decisions...and absolute reality bad & good.

I'm really not in a position to financially help much...and it's a mostly volunteer organization...so when the chance came to go there for a weekend and help out I took it! Scooping poop...scrubbing kennels...doing laundry...helping with meals---there were probably 26-30 dogs there for the weekend to be fed...it felt good to give back something for the hours of pleasure I've had watching the pups grow. And a few hours of puppy petting didn't hurt since I really can't keep a dog of my own being away from home so much.

So that's the story!
