Yes tails were docked yesterday and I thought it might be that. Compresses helping with massage, milk is white. Temp going down to 102.0. She has been up and out of the box more today and got some exercise. And she's eating and drinking. Discharge is bloody stringy and I think normal, she is self cleaning. As for antibiotics, how does that effect the pups ? BTW shaking has stopped, will continue with calcium foods
