A pit shot is a shot the mama gets to clean out her uterus after delivering puppies, to help avoid infections. Which has to be done within 24 hours of delivery. So mama feels contractions, as if she was going to deliver again. So mama was a little crampy & tired from the whole ordeal. She's such a good mama. I am very proud of her. She' such a little cutie.The puppies are soooo precious.

Congratulations on your puppies!! They are tiny ones!

Their skin is very thin and are definitely premmies... but I've got 3 little fighters and am keeping my fingers crossed. Wish us all luck. MOM is doing great - like she's done this a dozen times. = )

Wow, 5 days early! I'll bet that was a surprise. Congratulations. Nice sizes. Keep working with them, be sure to supplement through the night too. I had to do this with 3 in my last litter. They all made it, but it took getting up every couple hours to help them nurse and give a little supplement. Do you have any Pet Drops to give them? They really help. I had to have them over nighted.

Just now catching up on this thread.......I am so sorry to hear of her false pregnancy. I'm sure it is so disappointing after hoping for so many weeks. Hugs to you and your girl.

I told her to bring the mama in, as I didn't want her outside for to long with the other yorkies. Well less than 5 minutes of coming in the house she had her first puppy. A fast delivery, 2 girls & 2 boys. All seems well mama & her puppies. I am soooo happy. Way to go Tootsie. Nice surprise. Easy delivery for mama.

WOW! That seems really quick.......way to go Tootsie! Hope all are doing well. And so tiny too........are they all doing okay? I'd better check the nursery forum for pics of all these new litters.
Congratulations.

Aww, congrats on your new litter! Those are pretty good sizes even though they came early.......I'll say some prayers that they will catch on to the latching on thing and will stay healthy! I'll be watching for pictures.

Thanks for the support. I used to show persians almost 15 yrs ago ( just locally) but had to tube feed at times, so am familiar. That's what I'm doing with this little guy. If i can keep him strong just another couple of days, we might make it!!!

Good luck with your little guy. I'm relieved to know that you have tube fed before. He has a much better chance now. Best wishes, and hope you get a little sleep in also.

These are Tootsie's puppies born July 23. She had 2 boy & 2 girls. Look at the size difference, plus check out the mohawk on the little one lol.

Awww. They are so sweet looking. Yup, you got a big one there, is it a boy? But he is very sweet.
