Alright...you need tons of towels...nothing that you care about throwing away. --clamps or dental floss (for the cords) --scissors, best if it's childs scissors --make sure you have a clock handy to keep track of time --a bulb/snot sucker (I think it's a "mucus bulb?") Try to keep her near the box. Look for signs that she seems to be panting or pacing or pushing. Look for tightening of her muscles. Do you notice her turning to look at her rear or licking at it? Make sure it is quiet and calm where she is and remain calm yourself. |
okey whats the mucas sucker for? to get stuff out of the pups mouth? what steps do I take? |
she breathing fast |

Once she starts to deliver, providing that the pups come out easily (and chances are good that they will): --Make sure that the mom doesn't run and drag the pup. --Give her a few seconds to see if she is going to break the sac herself --If not, pick it w/ a finger nail and tear it open --Hold the pup w/ a clean towel, they will be slippery --suction the mouth first, a few good times, then the nostrils --rub the pups back quickly and vigorously to start it breathing --tie/clamp of the cord about 1 in from the pups belly --cut the cord (on the mother side of the knot Make sure the pup seems to be breathing...pads on its feet should slowly turn pink and it should start to whimper. I'm trying to type this out quickly, so I'm sorry if it's short and blunt. |
If she is panting just stay calm and with her. She may be pacing, nervous, digging at blankets. Shortly (minutes) before she starts to deliver a pup, she will start to push and you will see a clear liquid when her water breaks. Do you have your supplies together? If she DOES start pushing, try to keep track with how long she is actively pushing hard. |

If you can send some one to the store for a can of goats milk, Karo Syrup and eggs....you'll want to give the following recipe when she's done. 1 can of goats milk equip parts of water, 1 tablespoon Karo and 1 egg yolk beat all well together....give a bowl and another in the morning. \ Get her to the Vet in the morning for a POP shot..... |
