The weirdest thing was we were worried about bottle feeding 11 pups!
But she started licking the pups, loved them to pieces. AFTER she was done.
They are all nursing well, and at over a week old the biggest one is bigger then my 9 1/2 weeks old pups...lol
My daughter even went out and bought a video thing with the TV monitor so she could see at all times that they were doing well, along with constant checks.
Boy are they cuties...8 boys tho...only 3 girls.

If you had not been there then it is likely she could have lost the entire litter. I cannot tell you the number of breeders I have talk to over the years that lost puppies because there were not there when the birthing started and they come home to dead puppies still in the sac. I hope mom and her babies do well. By the way, great job!>>quote
I've went thru 1 dry birth with a Yorkie pup...
But it died. And I thought once the placentas come out it was 100% for sure they'd be born dead. Wasn't all oxygen cut off at that point?
We were soooo shocked,,,,yet excited when they come out doing better then the dry birth...we suctioned so much fluid out of his lungs...He had the roughest time.
