Mac n' Sasha's Third Litter
My last two litters came on Valentine's Day 2002 and the
     4th of July 2002.  April Fools for these guys?  :)
This is what   >> you're getting yourselves into :)))) 
Meet Turk.  He just turned 2.
Duchess/Tia from Tsuki's last litter >>
They talk about 45 degree angle cooking where most dog owners have to lean over the dog to reach the counter/stove. 
It's slightly different with Akitas :))))  More like sideways hobble cooking :)
Anybody who's met this guy's daddy knows this runs in the family :)
Mac n' Sasha's first litter :)
Sure you don't wanna'
boy Chad? hehehe
#3 GIRL is going to live with Darby and Jennifer and their new little kitty Yoda :)
My North Dakota buddies won't be getting a baby now.  They just rescued one of those funny looking Akitas they call Rottweilers :)
                                                                                                                                                                        (see below)
Here's my North Dakota buddies!  That's Peach/Alex from Sasha's last litter.  He just turned one and he's blowin' his coat.  He just weighed in at a whompin' 93 pounds.  Oink oink :)
They were going to
get one of the babies
from this litter but rescued this funny looking Akita instead.  They named her "Penny".
Welcome to the family Penny!
UPDATE ON MAMA SASHA:
Feb.18th - Too early to tell if she's pregnant for sure but we are having gas problems :)  Puppy farts, I not so lovingly refer to them.  Pregnant girls with gas :) 
Feb. 26th - okay, I'm 99.99% sure we're pregnant.  Sasha is starting to be my velcro doggie which she does, worse than usual, when she's pregnant.  Annnnnd, we're getting a fat tummy :)  Mine's from the cream cheese, aaahahahaha
Mar. 13th, Oh, we're havin' puppies for sure!
Here's fatso.   :)
There's that small animal aggression again, hehehe.
This is Yoda.  She's waiting patiently for her new friend to come home to Illinois  :)
^ There's my favorite guy in the whole world!

WELCOME TO THE FAMILY EVERYBODY!
Booboo

They're watchin' for their puppy :)
TWELVE DAYS TO GO!!!
I don't think mommy and daddy are as anxious as we are :)
Whelping box is all ready to go.  As soon as they can climb outta' here they're going out in Yoshiko's kennel. 
Mac says, "Leave me alone mama, I'm busy right now." :)
I'm able take those big ol' bones away from all of these guys but they get these pitiful looks on their faces, hehehe.  Gotta' always remind um who's the boss around here. 
The plastic and wire are to keep them safe if they happen to escape when I'm not around.  Saves on carpeting too :)
White boy
What farm animal does this remind ya of?
Shame on me :)
It's March 29th.  Less than a week to go!!!  Is anybody as anxious as I am?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
        KAREN!!!
It's April 1st and I think the babies will be here today.  Sasha didn't goose me her usually three times while I made her breakfast this morning.  She didn't eat either.
Macky is all concerned about her rear end and here's where I caught him sleepin' last night :)
    Such a big baby. 
Mud on his nose and all.
We're in the 
  whelping
      box! 
4:47 p.m.  04/01/2003 

  It's still going to be a while but I think the holiday puppy tradition continues.  Your baby will be born on your birthday Karen!  Wish us luck!!!
8:32 p.m. and we're still waiting.  Her contractions are getting closer now.  I think we'll have a baby by 10:00 :)
Guess Sasha fooled me.  FIRST BABY
    BORN 12:50 a.m. April 2, 2003

3)   2:17 a.m. GIRL  16 ozs.  Identical white markings as boy #2 :)  She's already brindle.  First I've ever seen that. :)

I took a bunch of pictures but my camera is dying.  New one is due any day.
I expect at least 2 more pups.  Wish she'd hurry up.  :)
5) 8:34 a.m.  BOY  17ozs.  Looks like daddy and the rest of the gang.  Bigger white tip on his tail and less white everywhere else.
She makes me wait SIX HOURS between pups!
No stress there!  SHEESH.  #5 is just a tank and took longer. :)
6)  9:32 a.m.  GIRL  16ozs.  Daddy ditto :)  Right front has an ankle sock on.  White tip on her tail.  One back foot is all black. 
Rotten picture but I had to prove there was a white boy :)  He's in all the pictures, you just can't see him :)))))  Another ghost baby.

Okay, I got a couple hours of sleep.  Buttt, both the camera and I are still tired.   Better pictures tomorrow :)
My little
internet
buddy
had
"precious
gem"
nicknames
all picked
out but this
gang is too manly for that.  I asked her to use "Lord of the Rings" names. 
She's great at namin' the babies.  They'll have their nicknames by tomorrow I bet.
Ghost boy :)
Day number two and it's cloudy so I can't get any decent pictures.  Maybe tomorrow.
My little buddy came through with the nicknames, here goes;
#1 BOY we'll call STRIDER

#2  BOY we'll call PIPPIN
#3  GIRL we'll call ARWEN, Elf Princess
#4  BOY we'll call SAMWISE "Sam"
#5  BOY we'll call GIMLI, King of the Dwarfs
#6  GIRL we'll call EOWYN the Lady of Rohan
Meet the Six Pack :)
