Default Annabelle was attacked

This morning I was taking Annabelle out potty, it is our morning routine. I let her walk up around my tuck to the back hill and she does her business. Today there was a stray on the other side of my truck that i did not see until it attacked Belle. It picked her up in the air and started to shack her. I immediately started yelling and trying to grab for it when it dropped her. Annabell took off after it trying to get it back. She didn't have any signs of injury so I watched her for a few minutes. She started to shake uncontrolably, I rushed her to the vet. THey sent us home and within minutes she started to pass blood. We went back to the vet and they Xrayed her to see if there was any interenal injuries. There were none. He decided to get somoe blood and while we were waiting her back end started to swell, right near her Tail. We relooked at the xray and sure enough there is an air pocket above her tail bone. The other dog must have punctured her in the hind leg area. We could find no signs of one though. We were sent home with antibiotic and antiflamatory medicine. Since then the swelling has spread down through her perineal area and it looks as though a puppy is crowning. Her milk is drying up fast. Yes her puppies are 10 days old now. I have started bottle feeding them , but would love to learn the tubing technique. The vet says to leave her with the pups and maybe they will be able to keep her milk coming in by stimulation. I feel so lost and mad The owner of the other dog is out of town until this weekend. I am worried that hte pups are not getting what they need. I am feeding them their puppy food. They seem to be eating okay.IF anyone might have some advice or prayers would be welcome
