Darcy has been checked by the vet and is doing really well. She adores the puppies now and is feeding them herself, although we are continuing with supplementary feeds every 2 1/2 hrs until we can be sure she is producing enough milk for such a large and greedy litter.
Here's the litter - very hard to photograph them as they keep wriggling around (note - any pink noses will turn black over next few weeks):
We have given them all puppy names for identification purposes - to be changed when they acquire owners. Many of them are named after our past boxers or friend's boxers.
