Mara's C-Section - January 6, 2015. The pictures below were taken as the surgery progressed. All went well. Yes she was LARGE! X-ray showing the many little skeletons.  (Click to enlarge). Ready for sedation. Incision has been made and the first pup emerges, still in its sack. The rest of the pups follow one after another. Everyone available takes a pup and cleans it up. Recovery mode - comfortable and warm. Mara - alert and ready to go home soon. Back
