If you don't take give her the shot, keep a close eye on her and check her temperature daily, they can go down very fast with a retained placenta or infection. |
I know, I will. I don't think the doctor will give me the meds to give her. So it is a matter of forcing her aay from her pups, and I am just not sure. How often would you check her temp?
So far she is eating and drinking as normal, and having normal bowel movements. She barks when she wants to go out, we take her, and she jumps right back in with her babies. We hand feed her, and bring her water holding it in the box, and she ate 2 cups of food, and 2 dishes of water between last night and this morning. So I thought I would just watch that....but I have no problem taking her temp too. Anything over 102 is a temp....right? And how often?
