A note from your breeder...
Hi everyone! I just want to let you know, it's been a very busy week around here at Aubert Den/Aubert's Airedales. We have had some basement flooding issues and now have had a restoration crew in our home since Mitten whelped her pups last Saturday. My reason for mentioning this is..my emails are pilling up and I will respond as quickly as possible. I will also be sending out emails this week notifying everyone where they are on our reservation list and as to which litter your baby will come from. If you have any immediate questions, please phone me 231-233-0269
Kindly, Ashley

Mitten and her dozen dales...
Mitten is doing great, as are her 12 beautiful babies. Everyone is weighed daily and gaining about an ounce a day. Right now, pups are weighing 1 lb to a 1.5 lbs. They are becoming more coordinated by the day and should be able to stand by our next blog posting. The pups can now hear and are beginning to make their first barking sounds. Their eyes should open over the next week.
Perch
Perch is a very proud father! He has had a great week.
Maple
Maple is just under a week away from her due date, March 5th, and now beginning to "nest". She spends a majority of her day resting by the fire fueling her pups or laying on the dog bag with her baby, Mugo.
At this time, Maple's puppies are fully developed and are crowded inside her. They are active as they prepare for their upcoming birth. The next blog posting should be a birth announcement!

Moose
Moose has had an eventful weekend after stealing and eating the puppies' mini kongs. So today we had the pleasure of visiting our friend, the vet! After a few x-rays, we found that all is well and whatever mini kongs he did eat, he has passed. Whew! He was scheduled for a very costly surgery.
Helpful References
Here are a couple of helpful references for Puppy Parents, I will be adding to these weekly. This is a great way to learn and prepare for your upcoming Airedale as well as learn about what your breeder is interested in! Again, just for reference. If you have any questions feel free to comment on the blog or email/call directly.
