I have been worried about the situation that she came from since I first saw your original post. Do you know if they were also breeding dogs that are larger breeds than herself?? I know this is far-fetched, but I really hope that they weren't in a hurry to get rid of her because they knew that she is truly pregnant and that she would need a c-section for some reason. I am sooooooo glad that she is going to the vet tomorrow.
