Lady Asherah All Aglow

Ash says “if you are going to snap pics of my mummy tummy make sure it has some artistic merit:-) Ash approved of the pics and said she thought she looked very ruben”esque” in the photos.

Easy Breezy Expectant-mom-to-be will be entering her seventh week of gestation and is glowing like a "moonbeam on a cat's ear".

Lady Asherah is much plumper than last week and is still storing extra bits of food around the house. Her storage locations are getting more creative and becoming a treasure hunt for me. Yesterday I found
small rations of raw beef  in the crew's toy box, my bedroom closet and the bathtub! I read somewhere that this practice is because the dam wants to make sure that there is extra food for the pups in case there is a short supply and to ensure that a predator does not steal it for their own consumption. In any case, just like her first beautiful litter in 2010, momma Ash knows best how to prepare for her young and she doesn't need a manual like us humans:-)

Some rambling pics of Lady Ash all aglow and her crew comrades "Cybelle" and expectant daddy "Rook" on the range.

Counting the days

Time to do some "dogma" exercises

Ash practises her "sphinx" pose

Ash says her dogma exercises are refreshing for the mind and the body especially during pregnancy

Expectant first-time dad "Rook" says " I need time to meditate too". He says he has invented a new dogma exercise - it is called "strike and hold a pose for a few minutes while resisting a doggie treat and the latest copy of ranching life".

Rook says "I can't wait to read my latest edition of my favourite magazine!"

Caught in the Act!

More hiding places to store food

Time out for a peaceful nap in the doggie den

Rook says " I can't wait to be a daddy!"

Rook says "I hear coyotes in the distance - could they keep it down, I have a wife that is pregnant!"




The bulls will be expectant fathers too sometime in March


Lady Ash says "ok I think you have gotten enough pics!"

Miss easy breezy mom-to-be

Miss Ash dreaming of her future pups. Stay tuned for next week's update!
