so far we have had no puppies and shes shown no signs of going into labor soon. her tummy gets bigger every day. we set up an area for her to whelp which is lined with blankets and is big enough for her and her puppies and tall enough for only her to be able to get out.
yeah the "due" date they calculated was based off when the her signs started showing bad i guess.
to answer the are they going to spay question, im not sure. they got the female because the male was a stud dog with the previous owner, so they wanted puppies in a few years or so. this just was allowed to happen earlier then they wanted (still not saying its right because this situation would have probably happened again in a year if it didnt happen now).
hopefully they will come around and want to take her to the vet. i keep bringing it up but they seem to not think they need to. im just hoping for the best and preparing for the worst. hopefully not the worst but at least preparing for what we can |
I don't know how you know these people but this dog does need to go to the vet before the puppies for a check up and X-rays as well as after the pups are born. Sounds to me like these people want the puppies to make money well puppies who are from a non health checked parents and don't have AKC papers are not worth much so maybe you should inform them of that. Does the mother even have shots and had any vet care? If not these puppies could really have some issues. I would take the dog to a rescue or a vet myself. I pray that something dosent go wrong and I pray they have a hard time selling the pups so maybe they won't breed anymore.
