Horrible....horrible... This was crazy~!
I want to know if any of you have had this happen before with birthing Yorkie pups
The lab I posted about a week or so ago about my daughters Lab and vet saying 11 pups, Mecca went into early labor.
The vet had said it was a large litter and they may come a day or so early.
My daughter kept calling me all day...Telling me Mecca was acting funny...wouldn't eat...panting...trying to hide....
I told her the vet said a couple days early....not 5!!!
Well, then she called back crying..mom get out here now.
Mecca just had a baby on the bed. We tried to get her in whelping box..
I went over the speed limit , I felt so bad after telling her it wasn't labor...
When I got there another one was born and she was suctioning it with the bulb.
Mecca was in such pain or so afraid she just wouldn't break the sac or nothing.
I tried... but she refused to go in her whelping box.
Then a big gush of fluid soon after I got there. Waiting for a half hour with her pushing many times, I told Jen that get ready, that I felt it was going to be a dry birth and that if she didn't have this puppy soon, she needed to head for the vet.
It was a dry birth and the puppy was really struggling ....
Then a placenta just came out on its own and no puppy.Just plopped on the floor!!!
No puppy for half an hour...but then when she pushed out comes puppy with torn cord within an inch of its tummy. I thought for sure that the poor puppy would be dead.
This happened TWICE,,,,Plop..placenta on the floor...with a puppy being born again 20 minutes later with torn cord an inch away,
Needless to say, she went on to have 11. We ended up catching...and I mean catching as she wouldnt even lay down all the puppies...she ignored them all...so we had to break all the sac...tying cords,suction...and swing all 11 puppies.
It was HORRIBLE!
The worst scare of birthing I've ever went thru.
And I have a farm and have birthed goats and other animals.
I really don't think this is what Jen expected at all.
I don't know if she'll ever try it again,
Mecca and all the puppies went to the vets the next day.
All are doing well..thank Goodness.
I wanted to wait before posting as we didnt know if any..or how many would die from fluid in the lungs or something.
I hope this never happens with my Yorkies. Her bedroom looked like a war zone after 9-pm to 3 am of her having puppies all over the room!
Sorry so long
