I can see though where hemostats would work much better if you were alone with the bitch during the whelp. The floss method would NOT have been possible with only one set of hands.  |
Yeah unfortunately I'm usually by myself, so floss is out for me, LOL Gosh I talk like I've bred a million litters, I actually have only had THREE in three years.. four will be later today sometime. My parents showed and bred cockers my whole growing up life, so I have been "whelper helper" since I was in a training bra.
As for iodine, to dab on the end of the cord.
