Just as my beautiful Laika was about to have puppies, my Mrs decides to bugger off on holiday leaving me all alone to play midwife...brilliant.
Armed with a welping kit, a large durable treat to keep Milo out of the way during the birth, and a shit-ton of towels, I prepared myself for a long night (which turned out to be a long night and a day!).
Fortunately, I'm friends with a lady who breeds huskies, otherwise this experience would have been absolutely terrifying. I mean, seriously, my hands where built for fixing trucks, not birthing babies! But what the heck, it can't be that hard, can it...
As you'll see, there were some scary moments during the pregnancy and by the end of it we'd both been awake for around 36hrs! It was gruelling to say the least but having the opportunity to assist in such a beautiful part of life was incredible and something I'll never forget.
We're not dog breeders but always wanted for our dogs to have at least one litter of pups. Unfortunately for my Mrs, she didnt get to witness this awesome event, which is why I tried to document and record so much of it. However, it does mean that I get to share it with you all. And if I have to see the gory bits then so do you!
So buckle folks and get ready for creation in all its beautiful and not-so-beautiful forms...
