It also makes it harder for others to call your dog away. Just my suggestion.Yeah, we always try to select names that are not common. Shit heads outside the ring often try to call off dogs. Pisses me off.
Will you have to bottle feed the puppies, if so I feel for you, I had to do it with this litter. Good luck with the pups and I know in the end you'll find the right name for each one.

We don't know about bottle feeding but are prepared. With two of us taking turns and a human bed in the whelping room we might make it tolerable. What nursed the pups fine with her last litter. Keeping fingers crossed.
I hope she can, and it's great you're prepared makes things go better when you start out on the right foot. There was two of us also, my wife took the day shift and I took the night shift, Iwas never so glad to see those four weeks end.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
