X-ray says;0 pups

[cain]

Well just talked to my friend ,she said she took her girl to the vets for an xray,today is day 55,they said they didnt see any puppies or sighns of false pregnancy.They wondered why her vulva is enlarged,they said she didnt have any signs of infection either.I guess they had to do 3 xrays.So shes alittle bummed she was geared up for pups next weekend!

aww sorry to hear that...i know how exciting and scary it is to wait to see if she was pregnant...maybe it wasn't meant to be...

i remember your previous post about this. this is hard b/c you are hoping for so long.
the little girl may not be a good canidate for breeding. usually one tie will do it.
i am so sorry

...............ME TOO !
Took Tammy for her scan today at day 60/62 - no puppies, boohoo. The vet says to try her next season
She was 4lbs but is now nearly 6lbs in weight - will need loads of walking now to get that extra feeding off her ! And yes, you are right, it's the waiting that has been the worst - all that preparation for nothing, boohoo
Vet says she's in fab condition though and these things happen - she will probably take next time.

Oh man that sucks. I know I was frustrated when Ollie went past her due date, but at least they were worth waiting for.

Someone else just had a false also. That has to be such a disappointment.

But what you gonna do!!!

I wish all of you luck next time.

It was me pal SWEERTR72 - Darla wasn't pregnant either !
Not sure if I will try her next time - will wait and see at the time. Have been offered two studs, but might try my own once more as he is tiny too, and I would rather a tiny ......for Tammy's sake.
Glad Ollie is doing well - LUCKY YOU !!!!!

I would say it must be something in the water, but I am over the Atlantic from you !!!
Tell your friend I know just how she feels ! Poor her - you get soooo excited after two months of waiting, and then you panic, and then you spend the money to go to the vet for a scan/x-ray, only to be told she has no puppies in there ! Poor Tammy is all offended with a red sore shaved belly now - the Vet shaved her - I have just bathed it with surgical spirits, poor dog......I will no doubt be all excited in a few months all over again, if I can bear to put myself and Tammy and poor Casper's manhood through all that again, lol Thanks anyway for the kind words......tell your pal to go for it again next time - if she does, I will (I don't know about her, but I have spent a fortune on bedding, whelping area, special food, and then the Vet....oh and a good book - so it will all go to waste unless I do it again sometime ! Fridge is full of food that will now go off though )
Was looking forward to a puppy after 7 years, too !
Best wishes, Debra x x x x

Oh Cain....you are in Ohio - have just sold my beloved Mini classic over there - it goes Saturday !

I'm so sorry for your disappointment. Canines do reabsorb their young sometimes so maybe they were pregnant and these just weren't meant to be. Hopefully you'll have a blessing next time.

Oh thankyou for that - yes, I am very jealous of your wee puppies, lol - never mind, hopefully next time ! The Vet thought she may have reabsorbed them too
By the way I'm glad the tails went ok - would have hated to have had to do that....not a nice thing when you love your babies sooooo much

Being a breeder is not easy, especially when you care so much. I have a littlle girl who is having trouble breathing sometimes. I don't get much sleep cause I listen for her all the time. She's growing like a weed and will hopefully outgrow the congestion. Meanwhile I'm on the lookout for signs of pneumonia and doing alot of praying. I must admit that breeding does make me happier than anything else I've ever done. Don't give up, you'll get your turn.

You are doing a fab job - just think how greatful this wee one is for all this love and attention - I would keep her if I were you - this one will be special !!!
Things like that are when you know it is worth it to give them a life and be happy like you are doing
Good luck with her, and I hope her breathing improves !
