She got sick the next day. I bathed her but by then it was already in her system. When it was whelping time, she started vomiting green bile. Copious amounts of it, it would fill a cup if you had measured it. and her labor never did progress. i took her in right away because even with my limited knowledge, I knew she was in trouble. She had one dead deformed puppy and one healthy puppy. Ceeby was only nine months old at the time. His first breeding. i didn't know any better at that time. The vet tried to tell me it was because he was so young and it could have been but because she had gotten sick early on, right when the babies were in the stage of forming.I KNOW it was the flea medicine altho he denies it. Research I read somewhere after that said not to put it on pregnant bitches. |
Thanks for sharing that. That was very unfortunate for you and sorry to hear it happened, and maybe you have helped another person in the future prevent from happening.
Thanks.
