What do you think?

We never had to use it, I watch and count the placentas, altho our Vet said Tiffanie might have 6 to 7 puppies on the x-ray and at 6, I waited 1/2 hour after she delivered her last puppy and felt and thought I felt another puppy, so after the 1/2 hour we took her to the vet just as a precaution and it was her uterus. I would only use it if Vet said to and that would be in his/her office or him/her here with me.
