| Need a mentor Before anyone reads this and has negative feelings, let me first say 10 years ago I did breed my yorkie that I had, so I am not completely "new". However, I did NOt do the research I've done now, so I feel like a beginner! I thought the lady that brought her stud to my house would be my mentor. Now that we are less than a week away from due date, she has been unavailable even though I've sent numerous e-mails. Anyway, if there is someone out there that wouldn't mind me calling them if panic sets in....I would love to have support! Just some info. to keep you up to date. My Maggie was bred her 3rd heat, she is 2 years and 4 mos. old. She weighed 4.6 lbs. The stud is 3.9 lbs. She has gained 2 lbs. X-rays were taken Monday, July 13th, which shows probably 4 puppies ( we saw 3 skulls and what looked like 4 spines). She is doing well. I have read everyting on here and I think I do have all the whelping supplies. I am just looking for moral support. Thanks in advance! |

Sorry that you couldn't count on the owner of the stud.

When she starts contractions, Just post in the breeders section, in red, something like: Puppy Alert. The breeders will come out of the woodwork to help

| Naw! Leave her alone....That whole temperature thing is sometimes erratic, unless you're taking it three times a day, why put her under undo stress.

| You could not have better help than Mardelin! My Bella whelped at the end of June at 2am and Mary was on the phone answering my questions. She is very helpful and reassuring. She has been a huge help through out the whelping and after! I wish you luck and for a safe whelp!
