Meggie is also in heat!

Great news!  We learned today that Meggie is also in heat.  She will be tested for her progesterone levels in a few days and once we know she is close to fertile we will be breeding her to Seeker.  That means that in a little over eight weeks we will have her puppies here (around the Fourth of July), and after that it will be another eight weeks before we are able to deliver them to their forever families (Labor Day Weekend?).  We have already closed the reservation list and have people who are preparing to welcome their new family members into their homes.  These puppies will be going to homes in Oregon, Washington, and even to the Netherlands!  We have two breeders coming out of this litter.  

Scarlett is doing very well and is several weeks into her pregnancy.  In a couple of weeks we will be having an ultrasound done to confirm the pregnancy and to give us an idea of how many puppies she will be having.  We have at least one family on a waiting list in case we have more puppies with Scarlett than the reservations we have already taken.  Scarlett is known for having eight to ten puppies per litter, and we may well have more puppies than the number already spoken for on our puppy list.  We may know more clearly what to expect once we have the results from the ultrasound.

Stay tuned, we are in the midst of exciting days here at Evergreen  Manor Labradoodles.
