Hotwyr Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Had the babies last night. Who would have guess we would have 6 bitches in a row ALL Black/White then 1 Dog also Black/White then a Liver/White bitch and 1 final Black/White Bitch Total - 9 pups 8 bitches 1 dog Rae ETA: sadly the little boy passed away an hour ago :'( We think from some type of bowel obstruction. This is the 1st time since breeding that I have had a living baby pass on. God but it hurts Run free sweet boy......

Paptacular! Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Dewclaws got done today at the vets. One bled quite a bit but seems to have settled now. They were given bandages but fell off fairly quickly. On the way home in their basket they were crawling all over each other so got blood all over each other. Nothing a facewasher bath didn't fix. ETA - Looks like the bleeder reopened the wound on her bedding. Got her wearing cotton wool booties now to keep some pressure on. Edited January 31, 2011 by Paptacular!

Paptacular! Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Ok, so the bleeder never really stopped. The vet who did it is an hour round trip, luckily the vet around the corner is seeing her. She has to go for a light GA and stitch. ;) Considering forwarding the bill to the original vet!! When they bought the pups out they said the bandages dropped off but 'that's ok, they've stopped bleeding anyway'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This surgery was recommended by 2 people as well. And now my mother is making me feel like a butcher for doing something that normally gets done.

Paptacular! Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Now Portia is reluctant to feed the one operated on. She will if I hold her down but surely I can't do that forever??? feeling a tad overwhelmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paptacular! Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Now she's starting to growl at the one who had the op if she tries to come and feed. Please, I really need some advice. I'm starting to feel like I'm doing all the wrong things and like I should have never done this in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotwyr Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Ok, It just smells funny thats all. It needs to smell the same as the others so you could try rubbing it in the other pups... then try taking all the other pups off her and popping the op pup on her. I know it's hard but keep trying and don't stress 'cause if you are Portia will be too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakeydoak1 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Even try giving it a bath to get the vet smell off it. And then rub it with some towelling that the pups/mum is lying on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Baggins Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) All of the above plus give her some rescue remedy. Does she have a bandage on the leg??? I would take it off if so.
