Ok so I took the lil guy to the vet and he passed away. The vet looked him over and was quite surprised by his color and so on. She continued to look him over checked for a cleft palate. All in good health other then his cord . She then started squeezing his belly and what we though was milk started to pour out. The dr took a swab of the fluids and took a look under the microscope. She came back and said its not an infection and by this time the puppy had took a real turn for the worse. He wasnt holding his head his mouth wouldnt stay shut. It was just awful. Anyhow I talked things over more with the vet and she said his condition was probably internal and had nothing to do with the mama cutting the cord too short. She assumed it was a diformity and suggested putting him down. Well before I could say yes or no I want to try he passed. Please say a prayer for the lil guy he was a true fighter and I wished there was mroe I could do to save him. |
