Excellent idea!! (Here is a thought for you and that old vet....maybe he didnt take xrays at all since he didnt show them to you.....and since he said you cant measure pups on xray.....maybe he has no xrays done on your momma, maybe he just CHARGED you for the xrays.....my suspicious mind....just a thought.....)
When you take the films to your other vet, have him/her show you how to measure a skull on a pup, and then compare it to the opening thru the pelvic ring. If it looks like these babies are not going to pass, if I were you, ....what day is she??.....if she is day 60 or later, I would go ahead and schedule your c-section.....if they have to do an emergency c-section, I think they may charge more for it.....if it is elective, there is no confusion, no rush, no anxiety....
