Our sweet Nana gave birth to 4 puppies on June 17th. During the day she was restless and we knew it was close. She ended up having the first puppy at about 10 that night. Jer and I stayed up with her but she did great and could have done it on her own. She had 3 boys and 1 girl. We named them Mufasa, Sarabi, Timone, and Puumba. We had so much fun with them. They have since all gone home. They were all very different so it was easy to tell them apart. We all had our favorites and they all got plenty of attention. I worried about Timone, the runt because he was about half the size of the rest and got sick once and started to lose some weight that he didn't have to lose. But they all ended up healthy and are now with their new families. They got harder at the end so I was ready to be back to just Nala and Kona. It was hard to let them go, especially little Timone who was the last to go. I didn't make as much as I thought but still happy to be able to make some extra money.
Kona making room for herself with Nana and the puppies. Kona actually loved having the puppies and especially when they got older she would play with them all the time. She liked them more than Nana! She was the best babysitter.
We spent a lot of nights out on the grass playing with all the dogs once it finally cooled down.
