First welcome to Yorkie Talk - such a concern to adopt a pregnant lass with health issues.


First go to Debbie Jensens website which has very good information for you on whelping. You did not mention if you have ever bred before but I am assuming you are quite new to breeding/whelping. I think the best for you is to find a vet that is experienced in whelping and have the whelp at the vets. If this can't be find a whelping coach. You are about 21-23 days away and need to set a fire under your preparing hands. Be prepared to bare the financial burden in case a Csection is needed and or if your gal needs to seek emergency vet care during the whelp.


In terms of the tumors - you definitely want to learn how to tube feed from the vet prior to whelping just in case you need to get nutrition this way into the pups.


Did the vet mention how many pups your gal is expecting? Did the vet mention any likely issues with the cataracts or milk production as a result of the underlying health concerns?
