Hello there, How are those babies and momma doing..Did you have their tails docked yet. The breeder we baught Manolo from left one of the pups tails long...CUTE. WHAT A CUTIE PIE...I like their tails too bad its not that popular in the US. What the heck you just need to keep that little girl..Smile......Lissette

How are you warming the fluid up to 98-99 degrees? I have a pap puppy at 10 days old that is not gaining like I would like to see and has looser stool than I like. I have lactated ringers and used to sub Q one of my cats so I am not worried about the process, but I'd like to warm up the solution a bit (but not too much).

manolos mom · 10-16-2008, 04:07 PM

You know, Im know expert but I made sure it was luke warm like when you warm a babies bottle. I have gotten all my learning from mannnnny calls to to ER vets in Dallas..Good luck I hope your baby gains. This might just be your small baby. I have 3 babies with me now one is 1.5 the other is 1.98 and the tiny is 1.2 lbs. They are 10 weeks on sunday..Lissette....

I dread having to post this but we lost our third girl today. I'm shocked because we thought she was doing so well. Late yesterday we noticed she had a bit of a 'cannon butt' and was irritated. She still seemed pretty good and was eating and showing some vitality. She seemed to fade as the night wore on though it wasn't apparent at first. As it seemed like she wasn't perking up, I started feeding her just a small amount every 45 minutes or so, trying not to stress her system. Around 11 AM I noticed some blood in her poo. She continued to eat just under a cc every 45 minutes but passed around 2 PM. It's beyond words how I feel about this. As for the others, I took them to the vet today. He did the tails and dew claws on 2 of them but felt it was too risky to do the small one. He explained that it has more to do with size than time since birth as to the safety of having it done. He said it would be no problem in her case to wait a few more days before having it done. The two that had it done are just fine and the small one is doing well and nursing although I'm nervous about her losing even the slightest amount of weight. I've supplemented her a couple of times today just to make sure she's getting enough. The two bigger ones are now in the 6 to 7 ounce range and the small girl is 3.7 so she is gaining. I don't know what to do with myself with no babies to feed and Bonnie is sad too. Thanks, all, for everything. You've been great but I couldn't pull these babies through. Jim

Jim, it's ok, if she had blood in her stool, then something was wrong with her anyway, you did everything you could and that is all we can do, I am so very sorry, your in my prayers, I have been thier too many times, it hurts I know, but this happens when there are tinies in a litter, the malt boy is still doing well, his one eye has opened but I can still loose him, I know that, all I can do is keep trying, this will be the first tiny puppy I have bottle feed from day one that has lived, if he makes it, and I will be as lost as you, if he does not. It is just part of breeding, the down side I call it, keep watch on the other girl, sounds like she will do fine. I do hope so, my heart goes out to you, and bonnie, blessings your friend Denise and if you need me you email me anytime!

I am so sorry for your loss of the 3 girls, I know how hard it is, hang in there you have the joy of 3 others and Bonnie. I am really sorry, sounds like you did everything possible under the sun to save them

katelin · 10-16-2008, 09:25 PM

Oh, Jim, I know this is painful for you. I'm so sorry. It is so hard to see them failing and not be able to change the outcome.

I'm looking forward to brighter days for you and Bonnie.

NanaDtreasures · 10-19-2008, 10:45 AM

Jim I am so sorry you lost 3 of the little girls.
Hope all is going well now with the others.

katelin · 10-19-2008, 12:44 PM

How are things going, Jim?

jenchai · 10-20-2008, 05:15 PM

Hi Jim, I am so sorry to hear your loss, I hope everything is doing well with the rest of the puppies.

My Candy is due this week (61 days today), she has two puppies, this is our first litter and I hope everything will go well for her.

Bless you all!

Woogie Man · 10-23-2008, 10:10 AM

I thought I'd give an update on Bonnie's pups. I FINALLY got the little one's tail and dew claws done today. I was afraid about her being too old to have it done but she did great. No squeals while getting it done and she's doing fine now. She's only 2 weeks old and this was her 4th trip to the vet. I brought her in Monday and he still wanted to wait a couple more days but today he was happy with her progress and went ahead with it. The others (1 boy and 1 girl) are doing fine but are little fattums. They're both just over 11 ounces each and their eyes opened today! My little one is 6 ounces and hasn't opened her eyes yet. They're all little cuties. I just love their look when their eyes first open. I'll get some pictures of them up soon. Jim

GurleyGirl · 10-23-2008, 10:25 AM

Just reading thru this thread today....

Glad the surviving pups are doing well.... sounds like the little one
is here to stay!

Hope all continues to go well with your three little darlings!
