So today it became clear that Penelope has started to practice being a mom. She has started to take care of her little lamb toy. She made it a little "nest" with her blanket and was snuggling it. She was a little uneasy about me touching it. I was able to - so I guess that's good.
Had a conversation with Penelope's breeder today and heard about how great her mom was with her and the other puppies in the litter. If it runs in the family then Penelope should be ready to me a star mommy!
I am off to Home Depot tomorrow to get supplies to make her whelping box which is where Penelope will give birth and be when she is nursing the puppies. It is also the area the puppies will live for the first 11 weeks of their life!
