For those wondering what's going on....not to worry. So am I. This is the first time I've ever had a whelping progress like this, or perhaps I should say 'not progress.' Not much has changed since the last post. Jazzy still exhibits signs of starting labor, but hasn't moved ahead yet. Dr. Malphrus tells me to be patient, that Jazzy is still within a normal time range. So here I sit, watching a whole lot of nothing new, and trying to be at least a little bit productive at the same time. I can't say I'm exactly 'being patient," as I'm not sure there's much choice involved! I'll post updates as there are any. I'm thinking I may be ready to bag the dogs and get some goldfish.

Just as an innocent bystander I have been watching the progress of Jazzy's impending delivery. Sounds like a pretty big ordeal to me. Never having been a dog, or given birth to a litter of puppies, I'd have to say the comfy seclusion behind a propane tank seems a cozy spot to me for most anything, except perhaps smoking a cigarette. Kudos to the valiant for seeing this process to the end, but may I say there is some merit to the idea of bagging the dogs and getting some goldfish.
