Ethan awoke early that morning to a sensation he’d only had once before. But he immediately recognized it as labor. His pups were coming. He grunted at Ike, his son from his first litter, who was asleep next to him to get his attention to get help. Ike awoke, looked at him, and he too knew right away and rushed off to get help and call for @Dasher, whom Ethan would raise the pups with as he was the original father.
The pain and contractions lasted for quite some time but he had Dasher and Ike and others at his side for help and support and within the next several hours Ethan had given birth to four healthy pups.
The first born was a little girl with a gray based pelt like Dasher and white up her legs. Ethan’s family also had that pelt coloring though so it wasn’t unusual for this little girl to carry it, as his father had this pelt. He and Dasher had predetermined names for the pups in order of gender and birth and a firstborn girl would be named @Ember Jay so he whispered her name to her and licked her head softly.
The second born was a male, with a pelt similar to Ethan’s but also more of a mix of his and the man he mated with this time around. His pelt was a white base with a black overcoat and a black mask. He looked a lot like Ethan’s mother and if he was a girl Ethan would for sure have named him after her, but the name that was predetermined for a second born boy was @Elijah Franklin, a name that had the same initials as Ethan did, so he whispered the name to his little boy as he had done for his sister.
The third pup was another gray based pup. He was a boy though unlike his gray sister. His pelt was also on the lighter end but he reminded Ethan so much of his brother and his father who both had these colorings, so he named the boy @Leo Hawk, after his dad Elijah Hawk. The two would share a middle name.
And lastly the little fourth pup, a pure white little boy, other than one little black patch between his ears that made Ethan chuckle a bit. It reminded him of Ike’s markings some, as Ike just had a random brown patch over his face. Ethan gave him the name @Donnie Ryder though. He whispered the name to his boy and licked his head as he had done the others.
He then turned to Dasher. “We have four healthy babies.” He said, love in his eyes and his voice. He kept looking down at them. “1 girl and 3 boys.”
Then he turned to Ike. “You have 4 new siblings, 1 sister and 3 brothers.” He saw Ike smile and also noticed his son being respectful and careful and not touching the babies but Ethan nodded at him. “You can touch your nose to their heads, gently.” He allowed. Ike eagerly did so but made sure he was careful, and then backed up.
Ethan curled his tail protectively over his little family, before exhaustion took over and he too fell asleep, his 4 babies at his stomach nursing. He was beyond happy.
