I totally feel for you, whether you meant to get your baby pregnant, or not! There is NO perfect person in this world, but many who have more experience in whelping than you or I. Your story will surely help someone out there that is thinking of breeding their dog. They are sooo darn cute... and I could totally understand why one would want more cuties in this world, whether they are experienced in it or not. I am not here to judge you, just to say that I'm sending positive thoughts to you and your little gang for the most positive outcome!! Please keep updating, when you can, as I am interested in how things will progress; there are many on here who are more than willing to share their experiences and give you support if/when you need it. I would, but I have no experience. All the best!! |
Ditto!! Good post. Michele learned a lesson the hard way, and hopefully by sharing, others will think twice. Breeding is not that easy, and while dogs have done it for years, sometimes, a lot of times actually, things don't go perfectly. When even considering breeding, you have to be prepared for the above situation. For others reading and considering breeding, can you really give up weeks of your life to help raise a litter if mommy dog can't? It's a huge responsibility. Kudos to Michele for stepping up to the plate. I wish nothing but the best to you, your girl and her litter.
