| Very Sad Story!! A good friend of mine lost her Yorkie yesterday she has been breeding Yorkies for 6 years and has been very good to me on teaching me the things I need to know. So here is the story Babe was Due on Dec.7 and she passed 3 puppies great on her own and then 45 mins later all went down hill she rushed her to the Vet that morning and they had to do a c section the last pup got turned around and got stuck in the birth canal this so called Vet never did call, Deb called 1 hour later to see how she was doing they said fine to come and pick her up around 5:30 well when she did to find out they never gave Babe any food and never checked her blood sugar so after Deb picked her up took her home Babe started to have seizures,vomiting and diaraha could not keep anything down Deb tried to give her food and water but she would not take it so back off to the ER Vet where they put her on IV and tried thier best they told Deb to got back home and take care of the puppies 3 made it the one stuck died so Deb went back home and I soon as she got home the Vet called her and said Babe passed away as soon as she left. So now Deb is getting out of the Breeding Business she has lost 2 Yorkies in this past year and I am really thinking about it myself there are so many chances that a breeder has to make and with all the emotions I just dont think I wil be able to do it, Lilli is due in 2 weeks and I am a nervous reck! Babe was only 2 years old and lost her life due to a bad Vet that didnt even bother to give her Antibotics when she left oh they said they forgot to give her the meds when they left.I just cant believe this I have been going to this Vet for 4 years and I am just in total shock, some of advice to people that maybe want to start breeding, think of you Yorkie first and make sure that you understand the BAD things that can happen, Sorry so long, please pray for Deb to get through this hard time, Kristi |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | That is a very sad story. I'd file a complaint against that vet. How can a vet "forget" to give meds after a major surgery like that. My thoughts are with your friend and these tough times.

| sad This is so sad to read. I am sorry for your friend. It is best to speak frank and openly with a vet..are they breeder friendly? Many are anti-breeding and you can not blame them. They see so much neglect and suffering that comes with bad breeders. So, I would want a referral from others breeders when looking for a vet. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | OMG how tragic !! That poor poor mommy - Your friend must just be so devestated. I can relate to you on your feelings now - when My vet started asking me about breeding my Chanel when she was little - he asked me some powerful questions - one was - "Can you cope with the loss of Chanel if something goes wrong"? My answer was NO WAY.... and I made up my mind that day - It a brave and wonderful thing to breed.... but emotionally, I know I couldn't do it....PLEASE Give your friend my condolences - that's just awful for her. |

| Thanks everyone for your prayers, Deb is going day by day and is bottle feeding 3 puppies every hour, But this was the Vets fault they didnt even give her anything to eat for about 8 hours so those puppies where taken everything out of her. Deb is going to get to the bottom of this and see what can be done, right now she is greaving and wants the best for the poor little puppies that almost didnt make it,But I have talked to her and told her that she is in our prayers,Thanks so much for all of your wonderful comments that helps so much!
