Each time it is a big wonder! A wonder that the nature gives. Each time you are alone with your friend in this critical moment. I am very delightful that Arnika is a great mom! And she is totaly trust us! I saw in the evening that it starts little by little. We both were trying to sleep and to safe a little energy. But how you can sleep? Finaly 4 O"clock in the morning the first female made us both happy. After followed all the other without a big gap. I felt that there are other two babies. They were higher and therefore took some time. In the end at 8 O"clock we could relax. It was the happiest night and the most lonelyest night at the same time. One big breeder wrote that sitting witht the female in the night is the lonelyest moment in his life. How true it is! Each time you worry that everything would go good. That female has enough strenght. That puppy would go correct. So many things can happen! And you are sitting allone and keeping your dearest friend in your hands and trying to help how you can. However, you can not help too much as this is Qeen Time. Birth is Mother Time. But I was so happy to spent this time together seeing eyes full of trust!
