Yvette has been absent from the Club for a few weeks due to the birth of eight beautiful Schnauzer puppies. Sleep deprived Yvette said tending to the needs of a new mum who is dedicated to being with her puppies with only short breaks away is a full time job for the few weeks that the pups need to be kept superwarm (it’s like a sauna in the birthing room). Yvette said all she needed was someone to throw icy water on her and flay her with birch sticks to complete the picture!
 
The 5 gorgeous boys and 3 beautiful girls are all thriving at six days old now. The puppies’ eyes and ears will still be closed for another week and by Week 3 they’ll stop dragging themselves on their front legs (like turtles) and will start to walk.
 
Already four have lovely homes and families to go to when they’re a little older!
 
Yvette will return to the club in two weeks when the puppies become a little more independent.
