But do thoughtless BYB worry about this?? Does the thought even cross their minds?? probably not. They cant afford a spay/neuter or C-section or proper vet care, but they think they could handle a sick puppy?? or a sick momma??
I think YT should put a sticky about the subject in every section of YT so that everyone has an opportunity to see it on this forum. Granted-not everyone will read it...but it would be easily seen for anyone skimming the forums.
I realize nobody is perfect but to come to YT looking for help for a dog thats whelping pups or a few days from it--thats even stupider!!! Most of us on YT know exactly where babies come from and how to prevent it if we really dont want babies. | 
For awhile I have been reading these posts and shaking my head. I am trying to figure out the concept some people have. I love my dog and I would do anything for her, but in the next breath they breed her to anything that is available and then want to ask for help. So what happened to loving the dog and doing anything for her. In my opinion if they loved their dog they'd have gotten it spayed/neutered. But that's just my opinion. I just find it totally irresponsible to come on a public forum and ask for help when the dog is days from whelping and then get all righteous when the answers you want aren't given. Get over it, The advice isn't bashing or being mean it's just straight honest bluntness. My Mom used to always say "If you can't handle the heat stay out of the kitchen"
