Worms can make them look bloated and tapes can really take then down on weight, and take all the nutrition out of their body. Once you get rid of the worms you can see their true body weight minus the potty belly. Her belly could have been bigger due to the worms. Just a thought... I would start feeding her a good puppy food and mabey even supplement with some vitamins, you could ask your vet about that. If she is pregnant she and the babies will need to catch up on all the nutrition they lost due to the tape worms. Like another post said. Breed every other day for 5-6 days for best results. Sperm can live for up to 3 days so you don't need to breed 2 days in a row. Good luck and hope all goes well for momma and babies. |
