Greetings dear readers!
Last July 5th my dog Shana gave birth to 8 puppies, today I would like to tell you her story and how we got here.
Currently, I have 3 dogs at home and with the puppies are 11 in total, we already have homes for most of them but it is not yet time for adoption.
Join me in this story time.

Saludos apreciados lectores!
El pasado 5 de julio mi perrita Shana dio a luz 8 cachorritos, hoy quisiera contarles su historia y como llegamos hasta aqui.
Actualmente, tengo 3 perros en casa y con los cachorros son 11 en total, ya tenemos hogar para la mayoría de ellos pero aun no es momento de la adopción.
Acompañame en esta story time.
Shana came home when she was just a month and a half old, I remember it was in the middle of pandemic 2020 the morning she was brought to my house I put her in my bed and we slept until about noon, as a little girl she was very playful and very hungry, at that time we had a cat named "puma" they became very close until puma left.
Shana llego a casa cuando apenas tenía un mes y medio de nacida, recuerdo que fue en plena pandemia 2020 la mañana que la trajeron a mi casa la acosté en mi cama y nos quedamos dormidos hasta eso del medio dia, de pequeña era muy juguetona y con muchísimo apetito, en ese tiempo teníamos un gato de nombre "puma" ellos se hicieron muy unidos hasta que puma se fue.
Well let's talk a little about the proud father, I plan to make a separate post about this puppy because I think his story deserves to be told in depth, Loky came to my house through my partner at that time, he was hers but her family did not want to have him at home, so to avoid giving him to someone else we decided to keep him in my house, he is a pincher cross puppy is somewhat nervous and very playful with lots of energy.
I feel that loky is in a legal vacuum because officially he is not mine, but he is here with me... in spite of many things he is a faithful companion.
Bien hablemos un poco del orgulloso padre!, Tengo pensado hacer un post aparte sobre este perrito pues creo que su historia merece ser contada a fondo, Loky llego a mi casa por medio de mi pareja en ese entonces, era de ella pero su familia no querían tenerlo en casa, asi que para evitar darlo a otra persona decidimos tenerlo en mi casa, el es un perrito cruzado con pincher es un tanto nervioso y muy jugueton con mucha energía.
Siento que loky esta en un vacío legal pues oficialmente no es mio, pero esta aqui conmigo... pese a muchas cosas es un fiel compañero.
Well, time passed and I must say that at that time I was not living at home, Shana became pregnant with Loky, on July 4th I saw her a little strange and I arranged a place where she could have her dogs, that day I stayed late with her but apparently it was not yet time.
Bien, paso el tiempo y debo decir que en ese tiempo yo no estaba viviendo en casa, shana quedo embarazada de loky, el dia 4 de julio la veo un tanto extraña y le acomodo un lugar donde podía tener a sus perritos, ese dia me quede hasta tarde con ella pero al parecer aun no era momento.
July 5th // Dia 5 de julio
Well the "intense" starts here, I will try to tell you in a not so lexicographically way, that day I woke up a little late and my aunt told me that Shana was about to give birth, I wake up calmly thinking that everything is going well...
when I go to where shana was I see that she is not there, and there is a puppy still inside the bag but alive, I kept calm and before looking for shana I had to help the puppy basically they left all the work to me, once I cleaned and made sure that the puppy was breathing normally, I went to look for shana, she was behind the house digging, I guess she was making a nest, I carried her and brought her to the room.
This one started digging instead of using the sheets I put on her.
Luckily was able to come help me with shana and the puppies, as soon as she arrived shana had the second and third puppy, we were with her every step of the way.
Bien lo "intenso" empieza aqui, trataré de contarles de una forma no tan lexicográficamente, ese dia desperté algo tarde y mi tia mi avisa que shana inicio a dar a luz, me levanto con calma pensando que todo va bien...
al ir donde estaba shana veo que no esta, y hay un cachorro aún dentro de la bolsa pero vivo, mantuve la calma y antes de buscar a shana debía ayudar al perrito básicamente me dejaron todo el trabajo a mi, una vez limpie y me asegure que el perrito estaba respirando con normalidad, fui a buscar a shana esta estaba detrás de la casa excavando, imagino que haciendo un nido, la cargue y la traje hasta la habitación.
Esta se puso a escarbar en lugar de usar las sabanas que le puse.
Por suertepudo venir a ayudarme con shana y los cachorros, apenas ella llegó shana tuvo al segundo y tercer perrito, le acompañamos en cada momento
The first born was already looking for food.
El primero en nacer ya estaba buscando comer.
This was the biggest puppy, we named him Aquiles.
Este fue el perrito mas grande, le pusimos de nombre Aquiles.
At all times we checked that the puppies were well, for that we put them aside for a few moments while Shana rested, and at this point we had about 5 hours or more of labor.
En todo momento revisamos que los perritos estuvieran bien, para eso los apartamos de momentos mientras shana descansaba, ya en este punto teníamos como 5 horas o mas de parto.
Of all the puppies, Achilles was the fourth to be born, and his musculature was noticeably more developed than that of his siblings.
De todos los cachorros aquiles presento mayor tamaño siendo el cuarto en nacer, tenia musculatura notoriamente mas desarrollada que sus hermanos.
To her surprise, one more was born... Shana took breaks between each birth of approximately 40 minutes or more.
To her surprise, one more was born... Shana took breaks between each birth of approximately 40 minutes or more.
The last one to be born was this little one, she had 8 beautiful puppies, but we stayed with her for a while longer.

After a long day and 8 puppies, Shana can take a well-deserved rest and feed her puppies. We honestly did not expect so many puppies, which poses a slight economic problem.
The good news is that we already have some families who may want to adopt some puppies.
Before giving up for adoption we have to deworm and vaccinate each puppy which entails important expenses, not to mention the food for 11 dogs in total.
Después de un largo dia y 8 perritos, shana puede tomar un merecido descanso y alimentar a sus cachorros, Honestamente no esperábamos tantos cachorros lo que nos plantea un ligero problema económico.
La buena noticia es que ya tenemos algunas familias que posiblemente quieran adoptar algún cachorro.
Antes de dar en adopción debemos desparasitar, y vacunar a cada cachorro lo que acarrea gastos importantes, sin mencionar la comida de 11 perros en total.
Well, my dear readers, we have reached the end of this post and before saying goodbye, we would like to inform you that all donations and help for the puppies are welcome.
You can donate to my hive account or if you are interested in adopting and you are close to make it possible.
Even a vote-up will be of great help.
See you Cowboys!
