I began massaging her tummy and praising her when she pushed to keep her from licking and on the right track. I had a feeling we were dealing with a big pup. We could see feet but couldn't seem to get further. I feathered her while greasing her up and went back to massage. As soon as we had hips I pulled the pup. We have a 7.0 oz. gal at 3:00. We got her cleaned up and going before Teddi threw up. She started pushing again right away and at 3:30 we have a 6.0 oz. gal. Mom and pups seem to be doing fine. |
I am sooo glad that you had the experience to help Teddi with that puppy. I'm curious what Calsorb is and when you decide to use it.
