Greetings to all of you,,,,,
First timer here and hoping we can solve this very disturbing happening.
Our 2 1/2 year old Bella, just had her first litter of 4 puppies and everything had been going on just fine until we noticed, she is losing quite a bit of her hair on her sides. She had never had a whole lot of hair along her sides so this had become quite noticeable. I had the vet check her out and Xray indicated she was carrying 4 puppies,,Yeah,!! Unfortunately we lost the first born male but she had two other males and a single female.
The puppies are now 7 weeks old and are in good health and very energetic,!!! We noticed Bella was losing her hair about 2-3 days ago. Another thing to note is that after she had the puppies, she was panting all the time even tho she always had clean fresh water available to her.
Can anybody help with some suggestions and do we need to be worried????
