| Keeping you in my thoughts and checking back all the time for updates. I really hope the last 2 survive, just hang in there, you never know. We are all with you. On another note, I am shocked how much a difference 3 days can make, Alfie was born on day 58. Just goes to show the hardships and miracles of breeding.

| That is a big difference. Consider that they are conceived and born between 58 -63 days. Most of mine are born around 63 days, in most books it will tell you that pups born before day 58 have huge mortality rate. I had one litter many years ago that were born on day 54. Actually thinking back too, it was my first litter. 2 did survive but the vet never thought they'd make it. Nearly lost the mom too. Its not as easy breeding and raising these pups as some think. |

| Do not blame yourself in anyway, you are doing all humanly possible...as with human babies who are born too soon, the lungs are not developed enough to function outside the womb... Teri Shumsky, one of the backbones of the breed had a small incubator made for early puppies...so it is really all about the lungs at this point. If the other two are being fed and stay warm, they may have better lung function and can pull through..wishing you luck. PS..and people fuss and grumble about the price of puppies!! |

I hope Jenn has gotten some help today and the two pupppies are still fighting to survive. |

| People sometimes have no idea what breeders go through to raise these pups, how about the many sleepless nights of bottle feeding or tube feeding every 2 hrs when you have tiny ones, or preemies? How about a c-section, in this area they run over $1000. There are lots of things to consider in becoming a breeder. |
