This is a picture of Liz the week she is due to whelp.  Her temperature is already fluctuating and she won't leave my side.  Whelping box is ready and she has her whelping trim.  I think she is almost as wide as she is long.  Looks like a big litter.

May we present our very pregnant Liz and her unseen swarm of puppies:

She is in her bathroom, behind her whelping box, lying on top of the air vent.
