By the way, puppies are so cute and funny... some of them are sucking at each other's ears and paws thinking its mommy's nipples... LOL
I fully understand your frustration about e-vets costs. Same exact services at triple the costs just doesn't seem right just because it happens after hours. But, I wouldn't want to risk an infection from a retained placenta, but that's just me. I'd be worrying myself sick.
Your babies are so very cute and tiny; my singleton last week was about 6 1/2 ounces at birth. Quite a difference. Good luck with them all....watch that tiny one closey.
