Well, I had to go down to see Faith for myself. I have been dealing with this breeder by phone once and the rest email updates. There is no doubt that faith is in trouble, she is so small that she must be held to her mothers teat and even then is all to easily dislodged by any movement by the mother. This breeder is a wonderful woman but feels that if the pup can’t suck on her own, then maybe it is just nature’s way. I could not disagree more but I am somewhat helpless in these circumstances. The only help she will provide is the physical support of her hand as she assists the pup on the mother’s belly.
So, the power of prayer is all that I can rely upon.
So very sad,
