Jazzy is 5 days old!

And she weighs 2 lbs. 5 oz. Wow...big, healthy, funny puppy girl.

She's showing some signs of independence. I checked on her a little while ago and found Maggie and her napping on opposite sides of the whelping box. Funny, Maggie likes to hang out in there with her girl even if she's not nursing.

In other news, Marlee is showing signs of coming into her first heat. She's 13 months old and right on track for a summer breeding if she goes into heat now and again in May. Once she's out of her heat this time, I'll be taking her in for her OFA Hip/Elbow Xrays and her CERF Eye Exam. After that, she'll be a cleared breeding female and we'll be looking for Mr. Right Chocolate Boy for our first ALL chocolate litter. Next year should be exciting and full of Chocolate.

I posted pics of Jazzy on the website along with our Planned Breedings for 2010!
