No I have not delivered pups on my own.
I have contacted the breeder who I got delilah from and she will just be a phone call away. |
Would she consider coming over for the whelp? THat is quite usual when an experienced breeder lets a breeding female go to a novice. Also a much less best is to have Skype video on, so your breeder can observe the whelp and might be able to recognize a whole lot faster than you distress in your female. She can coach you in real time how to cut the cord, let Mama eat only so many placentas, the rest you dispose of immediately.
Also you need to know that if an emergency happens whether the breeder is there or not, you can get help medical help really really fast.
Being prepared as I see that you are willing to do is a breeders best defense!
I wish you very good luck with the whelp.
