    No, not under a broody. No shell. I have a recorded video from the past hours; I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH and know others will want to know about this, too. In my hands the process of contractions to expel excess fluid and draw in the yolk sac began! I can't believe it! Baby is back in the bator...

    GOD yes on the yappy front. Every sheltie I've ever met has been a shrill yapper. Agility! What kind of dog were you working? Or were you watching? Or were you doing chicken agility (it's the coolest thing ever)!?

    What small breed of puppy do you recommend?
