Thanks, but there was absolutely nothing to pull on at that point. All of the umbilical was still in mom on both puppies at the same time. They were both sitting there with their belly's against her vulva. I was on the phone with the michigan state emergency vet at the time and she advised me to let them sit there (their heads were out of the sack and they were breathing on their own) In order to pull I would have had to hold the puppies bodies to pull on anything, I couldn't even get hemostats on the cord yet. It was a pretty odd situation.
