Oh, she healed SOOOOOO nicely! You can't even tell. She had 4 pups and all survived. ......and......she had a litter naturally last month (3 boys and a girl). She had no complications whatsoever. I skipped a heat as they recommend after a c-section and she is healthy as can be. I'll attach a picture of her belly about a week before she actually had the babies and the c-section....

She never did get sick or have any complications. I hope all goes as well for your beautiful girl. I did rub her belly every day (about twice) to keep it clean (just warm water on a wash cloth). That's Tiah and Grammy in the second picture.
That is so awesome that all of your puppies survived. I think that 5 was just to much for Tinkerbell and she just could not handle all 5. She is doing great with 4 though. That is so amazing that she could have babies again naturally. I was wondering about that. Thank you for the wonderful pictures. Man I thought Tinkerbell has a big belly...but WOW!!! Congrats on your new litter and I am going to try and find your nursery thread to see all the babies.
