Nova’s beagle pups’ 1st official photos

Nova is a wonderful mama already to her babies. They are only 24 hours old but I wanted to take photos of them so you could see them. <3 They are so squishy. How she fit all these chunky babies in her tummy i will never know <3

I have had a few people say “You have lemon beagles”. That color term is mis-used a lot and red or tan/white dogs are often called Lemons when they are not. True lemon beagles have a yellow hint to their white areas, and their colored parts end us as a pale yellow not a red or a tan. They are honestly pretty uncommon as it is a diluted version of a recessive geen. From a distance lemon beagles look almost white all over.

Red and white or Tan and White pups appear almost white at birth, but usually have a little color around their ears / eyes, and then the color on their bodies darken into a tan or red as they grow older. So my three pups from this litter are Tan and White or Red and White.

Small Red/White boy (will have a green collar on in the future so I can tell the RW boys apart)

Nova has her newborn baby beagles.

Nova was due on Monday the 6th. On Sunday the 5th in the evening we started to see some signs of early labor – a little shivering but nothing really exciting or intense.

I slept beside her which is my normal protocol when they are in labor. All of my moms-to-be have a camera on them so I can watch them from the other room and let them have privacy and space.

Monday morning, it was much of the same – she was uncomfortable but not digging or panting or the normal things we see progressing labor, but she wasn’t in distress and fetal heart beats were good, so I watched and waited.

Monday around 4, I saw her start to push, and by 4:03 I had a healthy tri girl with lots of white in my arms. Nova was a little confused at first but it didn’t take her long to start licking her baby and wanting to take care of it.

She didn’t take long before she started to push again, and by 4:30 I had a red and white boy safely here.

She was on a roll, and we had our 3rd baby at 4:52pm – another tri girl

Nova then settled down and slept for a while. She started to nurse them and clean them.

Around 6 she started to push again, and at 6:15pm we had another tri girl

At 6:35pm, we got another red and white boy

And at 7:24pm we got a tri boy – Nova was an absolute rockstar!

I thought she was done – she settled in and slept so I cleaned everything up. By 9:30pm I decided to get her some food in the hopes that she would be hungry. I had been texting my friends each puppy picture and my friend Malia texted me “I am manifesting a Red and White girl and a bonus baby”.

Nova did eat, and about 20 mins after, i noticed that she was bearing down again. It looked to me that there was a bonus baby coming after all.

Nova had a giant 11oz red and white girl. Wowzers – she was a little hard to get out, but when we got a newborn cry, I was crying alongside it in thankfulness for the blessing I had been given

Nova did so well. She loves her babies and is so gentle with them. She cleans them and encourages them to nurse. A good mother is worth her weight in gold and I am beyond thankful for the mothers that went before Nova to pass on the instincts she has today.

DeeJay’s beagle pups are 4 weeks old

April 2, 2026 sarah.sweetman@outlook.com 4 Comments

DeeJay’s pups are finally starting to wake up and get up on their feet more. This week, since they are eating regularly, we decided to combine them with Ivy’s pups – they are almost the same size as Ivy’s pups despite the 2 week difference in age.

Being with older puppies has meant that DeeJay’s girls have gained a lot of confidence and strength. It’s very cute to watch.

Enjoy the photos of them from this week <3 Cutie patooties

Ivy’s pups are 6 weeks old

Where have 6 weeks gone?? Time is flying by much faster than I would like it to for these precious little beagle puppies. They are still very small and so I think I will hold onto them for an extra couple of weeks just to make sure they are strong and healthy for going to their new homes.

They are enjoying more time outside now that the weather is not as cold which we are grateful for. They learn so much when they play outside and their little muscles are developing more. I love how curious and confident they are.

I still haven’t heard from akc who the dad/s are – they say maybe 4-6 weeks – sigh – we have waited that long already. hopefully the results will be in before they start going to their new homes.
