My little angels

Jente gave birth to 11 beautiful puppies last Saturday, on the 29th of September. These last days were most difficult days in my life, but my little angels fighted for their life. Now Jente is feeling better and I have hope. I have cried for hours, not slept for days, and I was even afraid to hope.
