I don't believe that a reproductive vet would agree to continuing the pregnancy. I have known of pregnancies aborted with medication--pups either absorbed or whelped early when their is no chance of whelps surviving.
I hope the op comes back with updates, even if the end result is traumatic. We hope to teach and learn on this forum. I hope someone learns not to let their pups breed unless it is planned, researched, etc. |



My suspicion is that there have been a lot but we don't hear about them. I personally witnessed a puppy dying one night in the Emergency Clinic and the owner refused a C-section to save the other puppy. I posted it somewhere on this forum, but people really just don't believe it will happen to them.
