Need help! Well not me but my half sister's friend bred her shi tzu. Although I have never bred or intend to breed I have learned alot of things here on YT. The dog is only 1 yr old and I told her she was way too young and the dad was 1 yr old too. They know nothing about breeding and I was so mad when my sis told me she bred her. I groomed her a few days ago and the girl asked me if I thought she was pregnant so I looked at her tummy and she looked pregnant so I said yes she could be but according to the dates she was rather small so I told her she might only have one pup or it can be a false pregnany. Well my sis calls me this morning and said that she had 1 puppy at 6 am this morning and hasn't had any other pups since.
Also the girls vet said it could take several days before she has another pup if she has more...is this true? Shouldn't she take her to the vet just to make sure that she's not having issues passing the next pup if indeed she has more pups?
Any info I can pass to her would be greatly appreciated. I already told her not to wait too long and have her vet examine her but I don't think she plans on taking her to the vet. This makes me so mad but at this point I have to stop being mad because whats done is done and I already let her have it the day I groomed her....I just need to know what else I can tell her. What can and cannot happen if she doesn't see a vet. |
