Hello, everyone
I come feeling very grateful for a website dedicated to these beautiful dogs, however I have an issue
I adopted an abused stray a couple of months ago, an while she is not a full blooded yorkie--she does have the facial characteristics, and personality of a yorkie.
She and I bonded immediately and unfortunately when she(Little Bit) came into heat last month my beagle locked-up with her.
Little Bit is definitely pregnant--she is approximately 7 weeks and has already gone from 9 pounds to 15. I am on a very tight budget, but I am concerned that she petite to give birth to beagle mix puppies. I took her to the vet last Saturday and all he would say is what I already knew--pregnant, Terrier--bring her back in 2 weeks and hope for a large litter as that will decrease the size of each pup.

What I need to know is if it is likely Little Bit can give birth without the assistance of a vet. Based on what I have learned on the internet I am planning to be with her when she goes into labor which should be around the 16th of August.. Se has always been clingy but she is becoming needier. If she needs to go to the vet she will I just need some advise on the probability of a safe home labor. Any additional sites you could recommend would be greatly appreciated.
