Too many times I see threads on here about a fading pup and the owner desperate and not knowing what to do. Prepare yourself for the worst to happen so youll be prepared for anything. Also save money in case Bella needs a c section. Most vets require cash up front

Thank you for stressing the importance of this effort to save a starving baby....rather than let the pup starve to death because of a fear of tube feeding, learn to do it so if you need to, you can be responsible for helping the baby!
