I'm not defending this situation in anyway, but her profile does show she lives in a small town - one that may not have taxi service.
I don't know either of these things for a fact, but if I'm right the fault lies with the parents for not rushing this pup in for immediate care....not with a frigtened young girl. A girl who may need our help even more today IF she can get her parents to take this little one to a vet. The internet may have been her only way of getting help.
If I'm wrong, then I'm in full agreement with everyone else here and I'll apologize to you all for my assumptions. I see it as often as everyone else here - people coming to YT for free medical advice, just looking to save a buck. And I HATE it!!!  But I've also seen terrified children who couldn't get their parents to listen or to care. Let's try to wait and see which case this is.
KAS, please tell us how your girl is doing today.

Bonny I've reread this thread as painful as that reading is, and given syntax and word usage, it may be that this poster is young. If she is in a small town, no taxis.
So to KAS, please update us on the status of your Bailey. Our concerns are all for your dog,a nd the future health of these pups.
Most of us here, can understand if you are very young, you simply just were not ready for the challenges of whelping a dog. And all will highly encourage you/your parents to spay this female so that no one is put in danger again.
If you are young, IMO the parents are at full blame here. Not spaying a female, leaving the care of a pregnant bitch to a young adult. For shame!
I do so hope that Bailey is well.
