Happy Mother Dog's Day

The weather was lovely for the MD weekend and we got so much done outside! My chickens have a new play yard courtesy of Dave and we got some fencing done in the horse pasture. I also had time to do some gardening, finally getting our vegetables in the ground. Sunday started with nice presents for me from all the four-legged kids, including Max, Duncan and Charly, who are all staying with us at the moment. I'm the substitute mom for them until they go home.
The mom I like to honor on Mother's Day is a beautiful girl with 27 babies. Velvet whelped three litters of service dog puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and was a devoted mama dog to each one of them. Now one of her daughters is a mom herself and Velvet is a grandmother! Time sure flies in the lives of our dogs, doesn't it? Much too quickly, I think. Here's wishing every mama dog out there an extra helping of love on Mother Dog's Day! The pictures below are of each of Vel's litters.
