Koyuk is nursing every couple of hours around the clock. She keeps a very tidy whelping box and clean puppies but does insist on fresh linens before she lays down. Thus we get to share the experience.
Here are a series of pictures taken throughout last night.

 She is a loving mother...

 and an exhausted one.

 Good morning. Time to start another day - or take a nap.
