Yea, she did it on the couch... We just wanted her to be comfortable, so that's fine. She's in her whelping box with them now. The couch cleaned up really easy... Vinyl FTW!
Haru did a GREAT job, super chill and in control. We are uber-impressed. All this buildup, months of planning, Shig's travels to and from Japan, weeks bonding with her intensely hoping it will go well and she will accept us as her owners... Finally we get to this point... and she's done in like 45 minutes. LOL
The Ultrasound lady said she *thought* she could see a third heart beat, but she only saw 2 puppies. We'll wait and see, but she looks like she is done. We do ultrasounds because studies show that young pups who are still in the womb and subjected to xrays have an increased risk of cancer.
And WOW is this easier than a Masha litter. LOL (so far...)
Well, Jen and I left Haru alone, she was just chilling and nursing her pups... We watched an episode of Tosh.0, came back to check on her... There's 4 puppies now! Crazy!
We think maybe us not being here reduced her stress a bit and maybe that helped her have the last 2. I say *last* 2 but at this point we have no idea. LOL

...and your couch...well good thing it is vinyl!
I'm still holding out for one more pup though! :-)

One pup of each sex... it's hard to refrain from imagining the matching possibilities. :-)
