And because her answer was short and to the point and didnt write it how you would have ...it was wrong? what people have to realize is that you will not always agree with the advice given but we have a right to say what we feel, she felt that the best thing was to go to the vet, so she said it and because she didnt add a smiley face to it you guys jump on her post. you say you are asking for a little bit of respect but you have to give it to get it. Its not having the last word that gets these fights going its not agreeing to AVOID the drama. You didnt like what she said...oh well in life we arent going to like everything.

Ya know, I don't think anyone JUMPED on her. A lot could have been avoided if she had just re-read her post. It DID sound rude in the way it was short and blunt. And not just one person felt that way. They ALL did. Then because she couldn't just say, yea, I am sorry it sounded so blunt.. She got defensive and argumentative and to the REAL breeders, who are trying to help. telling Anne she has issues was SO out of line! If she was a breeder and had been reading the breeding section and truly trying to help, she would have known the circumstances that Anne was going thru at the time and realized at the first post from Anne that she was coming on a little too strong in her bluntness. Instead she chose to argue and belittle Anne and that was totally uncalled for. Compassion and kindness can go a LONG way. ESPECIALLY with a new person asking a serious BREEDERS question. If you don't have some good, experienced advise, then you should either (1) not post at all, (2) say I really don't know, but I would check with your vet or (3) (if you are REALLY trying to be helpful) PM one of the breeders and ask if they could answer the question. All any of us are asking for is a little respect. Some people have to have the last word no matter what and that is what gets these fights going. I have seen it posted all over YT.. BE A POSITIVE POSTER! When someone comes on showing thier new cute puppy, it is fine to give a short blunt answer like " how adorable!" But a serious breeders question should not in my own opinion be answered bluntly (or rudely) by someone who is a non breeder and has no idea if it is an emergency or not.

i beg your pardon but others of us did feel it was rude from the get go long before Anne said anything. it was being discussed in the breeders group. I can also tell you that she was reported more than once. i literally sat on my fingers to keep from posting what i thought but after i thought about it and looking back at this person's posting history, I considered the source. perhaps no one said anything before because they were trying to be nice to that person.

Thats what I mean, we should all just do that because look how the thread was going before Anne commented on her post...it was going good. The OP was getting good advice. Thats my point...do not respond to post on what you feel is rude etc...if you feel it was unnecessary then hit the report button and thats that. I am by no means taking sides, I dont know either one, reason why I responded is because somethings gotta give. we have to find ways around the drama and by everyone just using that button and not saying anything YT wouldnt experience as much drama.

No she isn't having any contractions at all. I checked her belly a couple more times today. Her uterus is still a little swollen but thats about it. I gave her calsorb a couple times today.
