Welcome to the Seventh Week of Rio’s pregnancy update! This week marks the final stretch before the puppies’ arrival, and excitement is building up as we prepare for the birth.
The puppies are now fully formed, and their organs and body systems are functioning correctly. They are little walnuts, and their fur is becoming more defined and luxurious. The puppies are also continuing to develop their personalities, and we may be able to feel them moving around inside the mother’s tummy. Although I have not felt anything yet.
As the puppies grow, the Rio’s body is working hard to support their needs. We are continuing to provide Rio with high-quality nutrition and plenty of water to keep her hydrated. Maybe even a little corned beef and cabbage for St. Patrick’s Day. A girl has to celebrate.
Grandpa continues to take Rio for her daily walk. A casual two-to-three miles around the neighborhood. Rio is still enjoying playing in the 2 feet of snow in her yard.
Overall, Rio still seems like our Rio. Using my over active imagination, I think her tummy is bigger.
In the Seventh Week, we are finalizing preparations for the arrival of puppies. We have a lot of supplies ready, such as blankets, towels, and are are still working on a whelping box.
Overall, the Seventh Week is an exciting time as we prepare for the puppies’ arrival. We’re thrilled to be a part of this journey and can’t wait to see what the upcoming weeks have in store for us! Stay tuned for more updates.
