Hello Staffie Lovers

Well I know now with 100% certainty that Zeva is preggies. I am furious. I kept her and Zulu apart for 2 weeks before she came on heat and 2 weeks ago. Literally on opposite sides of the house. Turns out our alarm went off and the security company came over and left the gate open allowing him access to her and even though the separated them again after a few minutes before they left it would seem it was enough time for him to cover her.

I was planning on a litter next year this time with them which is why I didn't fix Zulu when I got him.

She is almost 4 and he is almost 1. They both pure breeds so the puppies will be gorgeous and I have loving homes already on stand by so the puppies will be well taken care of.

I am worried about Zeva though, I have never been a mommy to a preggy doggy. What do I do? Does she need extra food? Certain type? Does she need help when the puppies come or do I just keep her calm and safe and give her extra love?

She is due in about 2 weeks maximum.

She is walking slower, sleeping more, eating less and is very agitated with Zulu.

Please don't go off at me for not fixing her and him. I had planned a litter. Just not so soon and did all I could to ensure it didn't happen. I have also given the alarm company a piece of my mind as they were very irresponsible.
