She might be fine but just keep a careful eye on her when it gets closer. I have 4.5 lb moms that do great. How big was the male she was bred to?
On another note I have had a dog spayed before when she was a couple weeks pregnant and it didn't hurt her, but not 5 weeks. With her the only thing she struggled with was depression. Her hormones were all out of whack and I guess to her it was like she "lost" the puppies, so she was really sad for a week or so...but she's fine now. Talk to your vet and see what he/she says, that would be the best route. |
