Ayla is such a dutiful mom. She only leaves her babies once a day for potty
and never for food. We have to feed her in the whelping box.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

13th day - Magnum is allowed to come a little closer.
Maybe it’s because he got a nice brush and wasn’t so dirty like last time he visited Ayla and the babies.;-)

Ayla found her new favorite place -
Which is very comfy and she has everything under control. She can even look trough the windows and sees what’s going on out there.
