Could it be possible that the 9 month old male also bred with the mama I have and these two little babies be preemies or whatever? She had her for about 3 weeks after the two (my male and the mama to the puppies with problems) were mated (the female would still have been receptive) Any time I saw the adol. male she had him diapered but it only takes once. I neutered my male because he had been with 4 females and I did not want to mate him anymore and expose him to problems. I love him dearly. Also, I was very concerned over these puppies now I am wonderning if the adol. male may be a problem. Is there a way to get relieable information? Now that the adol. male has sired a litter just born yesterday to them, the pups are healthy so how do we know if there is a problem? She is doing most of this with a vet and I have no say in any of it so all I can do is not help in any way. But the sick pups are my responsiblity too no matter what. This has strained our friendship dramatically and I do not have anything to do with her dogs now except to take care of these 2 little sick ones. I have done all I know to keep it from happening again but they are my reality now. My male is fixed and mama soon to be. |
It does sound like you have a huge mess on your hands with health issues as well parentage of several litters of puppies. I would suggest that you start to DNA check them all and make sure that you inform any buyer of all puppies as well. Since I am not a breeder and only try to learn from who I consider nothing short of the best I would think you should be placing and not selling all the puppies with any kind of known health issues. So you only had one male that you used for your litters? There isn't a possibility that there might others beside the sick litter and the so far healthy litter?
