still expecting...

That poor, poor mama.  No puppies yet.  Lots of starting and stopping of contractions, temp changes, panting, and various fluids coming out of anywhere you can imagine.  She can hardly walk.

Our own dogs are having interesting responses.  They keep checking on her and are being so sweet.  Geneva has given off eating out of empathy.  Olly keeps trying to discreetly spy on her while pretending he is not.  Tanner gets a good sniff in every hour or so and then lets her be.  The neighbor dog, Murphy, was completely taken over by the smell of doggy-milk on my pants.  The anticipation is building.
