Delivering a baby and whelping a puppy, yes there are a few similarities, but there are also vast differences. I thought this was all understood and agreed upon earlier, green before, bad, green after, good. I don't know how many litters you have whelped, but you might want to find a good mentor along with a good vet to help. With experience comes wisdom. |
I agree!

Please understand though that Mardelin's advice and what she has described comes from years and years of experience whelping. I see that your first litter was in January? Like myself, you are still gaining valuable first hand experience and learning all you can, I'm sure. You will find that Mardelin has a wide range of knowledge and is most helpful in areas that newer breeders like us can only imagine.

I think maybe you have misunderstood some of the comments here. I don't think anyone...yourself included was trying to attack anyone else, so I am sorry if you feel like you have been backed into a corner and that you have to defend yourself. I actually think your experience in the human medical world would be very interesting to discuss as comparison, if done in a civil manner, of course.
