| Hi everyone Hello All. This is my first post. I joined this weekend when my little Wendy was nearing the due date for her litter. She went into labor late on Mother's Day Night. Unfortunately we had to have a c-section Monday morning and only one of the four puppies survived. I am having to tube feed the little guy because he is having problems nursing. Luckily, Wendy is feeling good and trying to be a good Mama. I also had to go ahead and have Wendy spayed because the vet said she would be at risk of the same probs if we ever bred again. Please keep your fingers crossed that our little "Braveheart" makes it; he is almost 24 hours old. He is still crying quite a bit, but I am hoping that the crying stimulates his lungs and is not an indication that anything else is wrong. He was having a hard time breathing after he was born, but seems to be doing better today thank goodness. I am trying not to worry too much. Tanya |

| Wendy and Baby Boy Thanks Everyone. I will post updates on our Baby (Braveheart ). He's tough enough to make it this far, so I am praying his condition continues to improve. |

| Wendy and Baby Boy Good Morning. Thank you all for your prayers and good wishes. I am sad to say we lost our little boy last night. I was really hoping he would make it. I knew when he came home his chances weren't very good; he was having a hard time breathing. I thought for sure once we made it through the first 24 hours things would work out. Poor Wendy, she tried so hard to revive him too. My concern now is to keep her stress free and help her get back to her healthy, happy self. She was very agitated for several hours last night, but is doing much better this morning. I have rearranged everything back to her pre-pregnancy days and she seems relaxed as long as I am nearby. She is asleep by my feet right now, snuggled up close to Gidget (my 4 year old and Wendy's 1/2 sister). It's amazing how close the two of these girls are; Gidget knew something was wrong and as soon as Wendy was in the room with us last night, she curled up next to her as if to comfort her. I really love these girls of mine. Hopefully, Wendy will be back to her old self by the time c-section staples are removed. Thanks again for your support. Tanya |
