In labor - please help - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Please advise. My friends yorkie is in labor. She had one puppy about an hour ago. She has 3 or 4 (not 100% sure based on x-ray). The 2nd puppy was starting to get our right after the first one but it got back. What should be done c-section or just wait for a little while. I have bad experience with waiting losing couple puppies before with my dogs. Should I urge her to go to emergency room right away?

I think we need a little more information!..Has she delivered anymore pups yet?...Is the pup coming back feet first?...Or head first?...How are mom's contractions?

No contractions. I didn't see it myself but the bubble was showing. Mommy is ok.

The bubble might not have been a puppy but maybe just a water sack. If you have any Nutri-cal or Karo syrup give a little to the momma. Many times they will go 1 or two hours between puppies.

I heard you should try giving a teaspoon of dark beer to help with the contractions and try feathering the birth canal.

I sometimes give one teaspoon dark beer to mama after all the whelping is done. i have been told it helps bring the milk down.
