Ohhhh, thats just lovely. If she can shovel the path like that, then having puppies should be no problem (hopefully). Good luck Rose.

I wish!
Another long night on the settee, but no signs Im afraid. She is quiet and relaxed tonight too and still eating well, so if I had to guess I would think not tonight either. Will keep you all updated if anything changes.
