We have been breeding our own service dogs this past year. To help keep this GSD related we did a breeding to Jamiroquia and had 6 beautiful pups, 4 males are all show quality -not advertising- lol they are in our service dog program and we are keeping one. I am excited to be able to say we are able to bring the two worlds together - Beautiful GSDs doing awesome work as service dogs for kids with Autism. Anyway, my parents have one of our Golden Retrievers and we did a breeding. Well, my Mom is saying all along she is pregnant as she was sick, went off food, etc. So, 3 weeks before she would be due I see her and sure enough, she is big and round. So I send my Mom off for xrays a week later to count the pups and the vet comes out shaking his head and tells my Mom, guess how many pups? None! lol It turns out my Mom is so sure the dog is pregnant she is feeding her Eukanuba puppy - as much as she wants LOL To add to the GSD end, my Esme has both Majors and needs just 3 points to finish. I am so excited. I can't wait as we will be off and running in obedience for that AOE. I haven't done obedience with a dog since Ben so it will be fun.
