Second the request for more pictures, and make sure Ruby's getting plenty of treats and cuddles.

Thank you all for the well wishes and thoughts, everybody is doing fine. Trying to get Ruby to leave the pups long enough to eat is hard, she is an excellent mom. I called a friend who is out of work and told her I would pay her to come help out while I am at work (and maybe overnight a night or two) to watch over them and bottle feed them. She said she would love to.

Oh, how wonerful! I have never had a dog who had puppies, as I always have them spayed....I knew I would never be able to give any puppies up. I have always said if I were rich I would have a big ole ranch where I could take in unwanted dogs and cats. As it is I feel that four dogs are the maximum that we can take really good care of (Eukenuba dog food, annual vet vet visits and vaccines, etc.) All have been "pound puppies". Over the 40 years of our marriage we have had the great fourtune of sharing our life with twelve amazing dogs.(four of witch are with us now.) I can truely say that my life has been richer with them in it.

Let me say first off that I am not asking any one to take any of the pups, I was just posting for those who were keeping up with me and the expected liter. I have aslo always adopted, as a mater of fact my first Boxer Lucy (Lu in Ruby Lu is short for Lucy) was adopted at the local shelter when she was only one year old. Three months after I adopted her I found out she had cardiomyopathy and she died less than 2 years later.

If I lived closer and my allergies lived further I'l love to help. I loved the boxer I used to have--so much so that I took meds all the time so that I could keep her. They are truly wonderful dogs.
In that third picture Ruby Lu looks like she's saying, "Sure, I get to do all the work and you get to take the pictures!"
