That aside, how much does she weigh? Does she have any health issues? She really needs to be checked by a vet as soon as possible and continued visits until it is determined whether she is pregnant or not. Her care under the supervision of a vet is more important than anything right now. If she is small or she is not built for an easy pregnancy then the vet can do things to save her. This is very serious. She could handle this pregnancy with little or no problems or she could die from this pregnancy. The puppies could be in jeopardy or have serious health issues. A vet is your only answer to save the mother and her puppies. Let us hope that she did not tie and that this is a lesson learned. Vet care is critical. Everything else can be dealt with at a later time.
Most reputable breeders wait for the 3rd heat cycle or the female is 18 months or older. Males should be at least a year old. I hope this is just a false alarm. | She's 4.5 pounds |
