Beans has Babies
I may have mentioned it before, but a couple of weeks ago, one of our dogs had a litter of puppies. Basset Hounds, to be exact. Seven of them – five males and two females. They are absolutely adorable! The video was taken the first night they had been born, so they are pretty small – and they sounded like gremlins. Sorry about the darkness, too.
Beans (the mom) was a lot more attentive this go round. Her first litter was touch and go.. She was probably too young to have pups, so she didn’t know exactly what to do. Luckily, my husband was a vet tech for close to 8 years, so he was able to help out. He was able to tie off the cords and clean up some of the placentas.. It was gross, but she took note!
This time she was able to clean them up, chew the cords and treat them like the little balls of fur they are. =)
It’s now been two weeks. They have been transferred from the bathtub they were birthed in, to a kiddie pool. Their eyes are just about open, and they are getting a little more adventurous. They still have to pull themselves around on their tummies, and crawl over things, but they are so cute when they do it!
They have gotten a bit bigger in the past two weeks – they’re a little fuzzier, and a little louder. Which is good, because Beans isn’t too picky as to where she sits when she gets into the tub to feed them. She tends to sit on them.
I’ll put up a new video shortly. For now, this will have to do.

I must say, though.. The first time I saw it and read it out loud, I thought it said [...]
My Review of “My So Called Freelance Life” by Michelle Goodman
Initially, I did not plan on reviewing this book, but I figured that I may as well since I am waiting for my BookSneeze book to arrive, and I have been rather vocal about my desire to work for myself. I’m still honing my review skills, so please forgive me for any faux pas that [...]
Valentine’s Day is Around the Corner
Growing up, I loved the day.
Mom would bring my sister and I to CVS to pick out that nifty pack of Jem & the Hologram or Transformers Valentine cards. (Yes kids… The Transformers have been around for quite a while. Jem is another story.
We would dress up in our ‘Sunday Best’ – as long as [...]
Do You Watch ‘Lost’?
I tried.
I really did. My husband and I wanted to give it a shot and we rented the first season on DVD, sometime around the third season. We even made a day of it! We got the blankets out into the living room. Mind you, we were in a studio apartment at the time… [...]
