Prego and peeing white little beads? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Did the vet say what he could do about the kidney stones? Will she require a special diet? What kind of food was she on prior to being bred? I wish I had a better understanding of what causes the kidney stones. I am lucky none of mine have had problems with stones.

Not to scare you but I have read a few studies linking kidney stones as indicators of liver shunts.

Often, some dogs dont show any typical signs other than kidney stones. Canine Liver Shunt

Has your girl had a BAT performed on her prior to breeding? I would definitely talk to your vet about this option before you do a C-section because sometimes the anesthesia is more than they can process.

Crossing my fingers and wishing for the best for you and your girl.

Im so sorry this is happening with your little female, crystals/stones can be so painful for them, I know my little male had crystal/stone surgery 2 x in 6 months. and with her being pregnant that poor girl. I dont have no advise on when she should have a c-section but wanted to say if she has stone surgery make sure they take the stones and have them tested at the lab to see what kind they are, that way they will know exactly what prescription food she will need to be on, there are different kinds for different stones so this is a must. did the vet say she will have stone surgery? if so I dont know how she would even be able to nurse her pups, she will be to weak and to sore and will have to heal first. If I was you id go out and buy nurceing bottles and puppy milk, nutri drops for the pups and the mom. you will need all this stuff after the pups are here. heating blanket too. I wish your little female the best of luck, keep us updated.

Stones in the urinary tract are common in dogs and cats. Even though dogs and cats do get kidney stones, it is bladder stones that causes more problems. Stones can also occur in the kidneys, where they are called nephroliths
Bladder Stones

Just letting u know roxie's ceckup yesterday went ok, decided to hold off on c-section! Going to monitor and try to let her go natural. She is now 58 days! Her temp this am is 99.3, and she had a thick clear jelly pass when peeing....any thoughts?

The thick clear jelly discharge is normal. She may be loosing her mucus plug and getting close to going into labor. I pray all goes well for her.

Roxie now day 61 and this morning passes some THICK greenish brown discharge...is this normal? This a.m pups were moving slot and know no movement?

chachi · 02-09-2009, 12:33 PM

I have read on here that green discharge usually means theres a problem

bjh · 02-09-2009, 01:32 PM

You need to get her to the vet right away. It sounds like she has a dead puppy in her. Please keep us posted.

apyle5 · 02-09-2009, 01:56 PM

I have called the vet twice and he keeps telling me to b patient....that she is going into labor! Tar is why I don't know what to do, he says give it a couple hours. She is nesting but no panting....

bjh · 02-09-2009, 02:37 PM

Have you taken her temperature? It is possible she is in labor but usually a green discharge means a dead puppy or a detached placenta and that could cause the puppy to die. If she is running a high temperature I would not hesitate to take her to the vet. Are you feeling any movement at all? Considering her health problems I am surprised the vet does not want to see her. I do wish you the best of luck. Please keep us posted.

Hoping all goes well, will be checking back for updates!

apyle5 · 02-09-2009, 03:15 PM
