this week end we lost a boy.. he was over a pound and is at the vets and I am anxious awaiting a post mortem to be done to see why at 2 a.m he was fine and by 8 a.m. he was gone.. we were shocked.. and I am sorry I have missed so much.. I just have not been able to be one here..
kandie has had litters without any problems so we have no clue at this point in time but again waiting to find out.. anne |
I have been very sad following along with what has happened to your puppies. I know you have been working with them and you must be exhausted. Angels pups will be 3 weeks old tomorrow and they are all gaining her smallest is still considerably smaller then the other pups at 10 oz now, the other pups are at 16 oz. or just below it. I have noticed Angel does not want to feed her pups anymore. Today she started having a bright red discharge especially noticed after urinating. The pups are very active I have been supplementing them inbetween feedings. They seem to nurse as fast as they can, I have to hold Angel down or she stands up to feed them. I feel so sorry for her. She goes right over to them if she hears them whimper. Then she looks at me as if to say what are yoy going to do or do I have too. I have had Angel on antibiotics for Mastitis. I caught it before it got too bad. I am going to start putting milk on a saucer for the pups tomorrow.
