I just discovered that Ella likes to line her babies up in a row before she feels comfortable to leave them and go potty or get a drink. She is constantly licking and cleaning them. They are the cleanest pups in all the city. I've been watching her and making sure all the pups are eating evenly. She is really cut with her babies, so protective. The 3rd pic from the left is a pic during the birth of the puppies. The others are pictures from yesterday when Ella was taking care of them. I find that I make sure I always have my camera in my hand when I go to check on the pups, because they are so cut to look at.
