| The Birth of a Puppy |
| At Drews' Brittanys we find the birth experience to not only be amazing to see but also educational. Seeing a puppy or baby being born can be pretty neat. You may be tempted to breed your own dog but please before you do we suggest you take a good year to research lines, issues known to the breed and speak with breeders. Know the costs and risks of breeding and speak with your vet. Breeding for the experience can be seen at any breeders home. ** Our lines have been hand picked and took us years to get to where we are. |

| The mother dog removes the sac and placenta that has helped to feed the puppy for the last two months. Though it may seen icky to humans the sac and placenta are eaten by the mother and considered a source of nutrition for the female who is exhausted and often has opted not eat in hours or a day. |
