A spay is not an option in this case as she has already said that will not be happening, so lets just get of that subject and try to offer any more Relevent advise we can, yes?
If we as an online community want to stop unnessesary yorkie deaths, disregarding what the breeder is saying and trying to get them to abort a perfectly viable litter isnt exactly going about it the right way... There have been many cases lately where that has been the right thing to Suggest, but once they say an absolute no- it's time to move on.
Because if this, I imagine there are so many that after reading previous threads such as this one, wont want to have to go through the same, so won't bother asking for help and assistance, possibly leading to an unnecessary death or two.
Yorkietweetie, have you started to get your whelping kit together? Do you know what you are going to use as a bed for them- going with an x-pen? |
Please don't assume I was saying to abort the puppies; I would never say that. I say only that examining the consequences of our actions is a good thing - now, during, before, and after the event in question.
That's not so radical is it?
Do we want all new members who might be reading this thread to think that putting two dogs together - with no further forethought - and no real idea about how to whelp . . do we really want everything to think this is a great and FANTASTIC idea???
I think not.
I agree - now is the time for damage control and for the OP to do the best she can with the whelp and the puppies.
Do I recommend that every single person that is considering breeding their dog give it a
great deal of
thought,
research, and
consideration?
I surely do. I will say no more and allow those who are willing to help this breeder, her female, and her puppies to get on with it.
