Northwoods Vixen whelps 11!

In the final days of her pregnancy, Jerry and I knew that Vixen was very big but had no idea what we all were in store for.

Beginning at about noon on Saturday, May 21, and finally finishing up about 12 hours later, Vixen whelped 11 puppies. Even thought the count was high and the time was long, Vixen never seemed to struggle or tire.

The breakdown is eight males—four black & white, two liver & white, two orange & white—and three females—one of each color. Nature has a way, perhaps, of evening the score. Vixen’s first two litters were heavily weighted in favor of females—14—to only six males.

This is Vixen’s second litter by CH Elhew G Force. Jerry and I kept four of our own from that litter to raise and train—and kept in touch with or trained the other five. We knew we had an exceptional cross and decided to repeat it.

We are happy and fortunate to report that Vixen and all her puppies are healthy and vigorous.

Two male puppies are available for sale.
