I hope they are prepared for the vet bills that a problem delivery could bring about. Depending on your area a C section could cost hundreds to over a thousand dollars. Any dog can have problems whelping but little dogs are much more prone to have problems.These people do not seem to be aware of the gravity of this situation. If you calculate from the first mating you will be within two days of the delivery date usually. If they continued to mate throughout her heat cycle you could be looking at some immature puppies being born that may not survive. She also could have a very large litter which also decreases chances of survival.
This little dog is too young to be bred to begin with. If they could not prevent a breeding this time they will not be able to prevent a breeding next time she goes into heat......should she survive this. How many litters do they think this little girl can crank out? A large litter also increases the chance that she could have calcium issues after delivery......also very serious and can be fatal. This is such a sad situation. |
