Good morning everyone: In a couple of months, I'll finally be breeding
my "Amber". I've got her future "husband" picked out already, but it's
been quite a few years since I've had my last litter. I used to love to
read "The German Shepherd Today" by Strickland and Moses, especially the
part about whelping litters and building a whelping box. I enjoyed the
step by step pictures. Do you recommend I buy the up to date version of
that one again? Don't even know if I still have my old one anymore. I
have so many old books, Reviews, Redbooks, etc. in storage, but wouldn't
know the first place to even look for them, so that's not an option. So
I'm going to buy myself an early Christmas present. I want to ask all
of you "wise and humble" breeders, which is your favorite book about
whelping and weaning puppies, and the proper care of them and mother.
My "Amber" is precious to me (as I'm sure your girls are to you) and I
have a handsome boy picked out for her, so I want her pups to have a
great start in life. I wasn't a big breeder many years ago and never
will be, so each breeding is carefully planned so I won't find myself
having a ton of dogs. So you more "seasoned" pros, what do you
recommend for good reading material as I sit in the VERY HOT whelping
room waiting for the "arrivals". I'm not looking for a book on
genetics.......more on the whelping, weaning and care of the mother and
babies. Thanks for your suggestions. Barbara Galasso
