Great news! Kona's puppies have arrived!
After hours of labor and a few shots of oxytocin, Kona finally free whelped her first puppy (in the vets office) at around 2pm on Saturday afternoon. Kona did not take well to natural childbirth and after more waiting it was decided that her final three puppies would be delivered by c-section.

Kona had a girl, two boys, and another girl, in that order. The final girl was large and VERY high in the horn of her uterus, so the vet was very happy with the decision to go with a c-section. It was better for poor Kona believe it or not. More likely than not, she would have been back in the vets office to get that last pup out anyway.
Their approximate birth weights were:
Female 1: 12 ounces
Male 2: 1 pound 4 ounces
Male 3: 1 pound 4 ounces
Female 4: 1 pound
