The Window Cleaner did it.

Posted on February 15, 2021 by pensitivity101

No, this is nothing to do with my poor attempt at cleaning the windows last week when Hubby was in hospital.
We had news today of a pregnancy that we are really pleased about.
No fanfare or staged pictures for this one, just one rather rotund little body and the expected delivery of four or five youngsters in about three weeks.
This is a cavapoo as taken from the internet.
Winnie is one of these, though she is purply grey and white rather than brown.
At eighteen months, her mummy was going to wait until she was two years old before letting her have a litter. However, due to sad unforseen circumstances in another family, this has been brought forward to this season instead, especially as the window cleaner’s dog took a shine to her.
Whilst the windows were being cleaned, the dogs got to play, and there you go.

Her owner has homes lined up for the pups, but as Winnie was one of 11, there is a strong possibility she will have more than five, so naturally the question was asked. We have responded that should she not be able to find homes for any ‘extras’ to come and talk to us.
Don’t get excited. Getting a new pup is not on the cards at the moment, and these little beauties can sell for as much as £3000 each. We don’t have that kind of money anyway, and much as I love the little dogs around us, both of us are in favour of something bigger when the time comes. Hubby wants a male this time, but we are in total agreement that the dog will have to choose us.

Meanwhile, we look forward to next month’s arrivals which beats anything by a certain couple.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    A happy accident for certain! I hope the momma to be is delivered safely (and for her sake does NOT have a huge litter on the first go round)!

    If there was only one mating there’s less likely to be a massive litter. Good luck with the birthing! When my Jack Russells had their pups (some decades ago now) it always seemed to involve me staying the night on a camp bed by the whelping box.

      I think our friend has things well in hand. I’m glad she already has homes lined up for an anticipated five. Hope I can get to see them beforehand, but with social distancing, it’s doubtful!
