puglvr Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Just a question about pups that are born dead. On the weekend I helped with the whelping of a pug girl. 2 live pups and 2 dead pups. The 2 dead pups had unusual "sacs'/placentas. They were quite thick and"meaty"is the only way I could think to describe them. the other two live pups had "normal" sacs. Has anyone else noticed this? We also had what we thought looked like an unformed foetus. Just like the foetus shape but like it stopped forming and went hard. BB I read in the December litters about you litter; What is a "macerated pup"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB I read in the December litters about you litter; What is a "macerated pup"? this definition from google. sterile necrosis and dissolution of the fetus. May be ejected in this form or go on to mummification. My pup you could feel the bones in the sac no placenta. Sounds like you had two macerated pups.
