Jim -- just great. I've looked at a lot of pre-whelp x-rays, so it's easy for me to see those skulls. Can't wait to see pups. You're absolutely right. When I look at my kids, I can't hardly believe when they were born they were essentially the size of their muzzles. In my last litter, I had 4 that weighed 1.5# and 2 that weighed 1.25#. Can't believe that 6 months later, Canon weighs over 100#.

I love your whelping box. I've got to build a new box and I like your construction and materials. What are the dimensions? Do you have some type of door that goes across the front for when the little scrapers decide to escape the box? What is the flooring material inside the box? How do you connect the corners? And, I love the colored squares. Great idea. Do you have a tarp under them? What's Cassidy's due date?
