Right in the middle of a major move and still living through lockdowns, Einstein decided it was time to welcome 11 beautiful little puppies into the world. Our second litter with Einstein, she proved, again, that she is an amazing mom. She delivered all 11 puppies in record time and all naturally. Even the vet was cheering her on when she went to her wellness and puppy checkup with the vet a few days later.

She continued to be an amazing mom throughout but had to give up breastfeeding due to mastitis. Thankfully, we caught it early and she was back to normal in no time. We kept our beautiful Leela (who is now Tulip) because she was very much like her grandmother,my heart dog, Daisy.

Despite being just freshly moved into our new home, the puppies took it in stride and were wonderful little pups that we raised right under foot. They loved evenings when it was snowing outside and I had the fireplace on. The litter consisted of 7 boys and 4 girls and all were nice and big from day one.
