Dee, I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of the pup. It is so heartbreaking to lose newborn.
I know what it's like to have two litters back to back. Chizzie had her six
pups and a week later Chattie had her three. It was during the time I was recovering from the 4-wheeler accident.
I can tell you that you are in for one heck of a ride. I wish you well with both of the whelpings-- do you know how many to expect from each mom? You will have more laughter and joy from a passle of pups it's just getting them safely delivered and past the first few days that is such a worry.
Will be closely following your progress.
