Losing a female or a pup hurts more than you know. Last year I lost 2 pups, the first time that ever happened to me. The year before I spent $2,500 hundred to save my girl's life, she went down a week after she whelped. Since she was 5 it was to be her last litter. She is now retired/spayed and living her life ruling the house. But, you go to any length for the love and welfare of your dogs.
