aYup, all TEN of them dropped right smack in the center of the waterbed at 3:00 AM!  



Mom (Asuilu) 1/2 Arctic Wolf, 1/4 Lab 1/4 German shepherd. Fighting Weight ~ 85 pounds:



Pa (Amaruq) at 7 months. 1/2 Timber Wolf, 1/2 Alaskan Husky:



Of course he has GROWN since then! I'll have to get another recent picture of him up soon! He now tops the scales at 125 pounds - at 11 months and a week!! Gonna be a Monster! And who would have guessed he would prove to be THAT fertile at 10 Months??  

The Pack:



A Handful for sure! We only expected four or so, so we will be looking for proper homes for the 'extras'' that tagged along. Will post when the time gets near...

Man, What a DAY!!! 

Cheers,
Nog - Now Bagged! Gonna get Worse, MUCH Worse methinks!

Interesting times around here now... 

Cheers,

I wish we had room around here for a dog of that size, gorgeous dogs you got there Nog

[Blackrt03]

big family you got there Nog. The little ones look so cute

Hey Nog.... Does this make you a grampa 10 times over???

Those are some nice dogs! That's the way dogs should look in my opinion. I would love to get a dog like that, but Rodney wont let me   

Funny how the puppies have spots though. It doesn't look like the parents are very spotted.

LOL! Tell Rod he should chat with me! 

I agree, these are the way Dogs should look!
The spotting may or may not stay. Almost all of our hounds change dramatically in color and pattern as they age. Amaruq's Mom (Granny to this lot) was an Alaskan Husky that sported the spotting, looks like it transferred down through to this generation.

All of 3 days old, and half already spoken for! Wow! 

Better hurry if you want to keep Your Lady Happy ROD! 

Cheers,

Ill take one, send it over on the ferry.

The "Hamsters" are growing like Weeds! Incredible how fast they do that at this age! 
Poor Ma is getting just a tad be-draggled!
All are VERY healthy, and appear to be thriving on the mix of 1/2 ground moose (sometimes deer) and puppy chow Mama is wolfing back!

A pix from day 5:



And I actually got Amaruq to stand still for a split-second! First decent photo of him in Months!



Starting to see some Real definition! HUGE chest, and actually quite wide through the back and back end! Coming along more than nicely, and a fantastic disposition to boot!

He definitely has The Look down!



He had his first nervous and quick look at his kids yesterday, then bolted away swiftly! Smart Papa!   

So, life continues to be Fun around here! Hoping the newest additions take a little more time before they start wandering about!

Cheers,
Nog

All continue to do WELL and GROWING!!  

Just barely to the stage they can get out of the tub they've been calling home since they were born.
Gonna be a MadHouse around here shortly methinks! 

Added a couple of short videos to the gallery. Enjoy!

Nog,  me thinks you're gonna need a bigger boat...

Like an Ark methinks! 

[IronNoggin]

Growing even FASTER now!!   

They can ALL get out of the tub at this point. So, the Big Move to the downstairs kitchen (immediate access to the back yard) will have to happen right shortly methinks. When I checked on them just a short time ago, one was already nuzzled up to Mama's food dish and checking out the grits!  Twenty-two days seems just a little early, but hey, with their background, maybe not...

Had one of the Little Ladz out the other night. Time to meet Papa:



Certainly does take after his Pa, down to the NO FEAR Attitude!!   



Amaruq is exceedingly gentle with his wee ones, and very much seems to understand they are his! Cool!

And life between Ma and Pa has returned to near "normal". She tolerates him well, no growling nor menacing any more. Guess she too figures it may well be time for a little help!!

And so the FUN continues...

Cheers,
Nog

This is good stuff Nog   Thanks for posting.

Due to a couple of them toying with Asuilu's munchies, we decided to see just what they thought of trying on a bowl themselves. The results were downright HILARIOUS! Puts a whole new meaning to the term "Dog Pile"!!!



As you can see, most ended up with as much ON them (and the floor and everywhere else that is!) as in them!



Zapped that whole bowl in a matter of minutes! WOW!!!

Here's a short vid of the festivities...

Realizing they simply would NOT stay in the pool any longer, and that weaning time has come along, we moved them downstairs yesterday. Thank The Goddess for Good Friends! Gathered up a puppy cage and two puppy feeders (helps a LOT with the dancing in the food routine!). All settled in well, and Asuilu relaxed even more! She's GOTTA be happy those sharp little teeth are being used to chow down puppy chow rather than being used on HER!!

Feeding time at the Zoo again:





They grunt just like little piglets when they're lined up at the trough! Damn funny to watch!!

Stay tuned for the next installment. Very next decent day we get around here, it will be the Outdoor Adventure for All! 

Cheers,
Nog
