Inka has had her puppies
Our beautiful little Inka has been through her rough times and has had 5 puppies. It was tough for her, she gave birth to her first puppy at around 5pm on Tuesday and the last one came mid day Wednesday - poor thing! Last night, she was exhausted and wouldn't even come with me for a quick walk. I had to bring the food and water bowl to her in order for her to eat and drink but it's understandable - she must be quite exhausted! When we got Inka on Saturday afternoon, she was completely matted so we started giving her a good shave so she would be comfortable once giving birth - we knew the pups were coming within a few days time. We didn't want to stress her too much being a new environment AGAIN, but didn't want to leave her like that... She still needs a better groom but the worst is done, enough to make her comfortable while giving birth to her little ones. In approx another week, once she has gained her strength and her pups are bigger, we will give her a nice bath and finish her groom. For now, she is resting in the quietness of a foster home with her new babes!
