| Larger dogs having c-sections. Ok I figured it out. How many of you have larger dogs Yorkies or other that had to have a c-section. Five pounds & over.

| okay. Well I don't want to be rude or anything. But any unhealthy dog due to being overweight, old, or too young would have problems. Shouldn't this poll compare healthy dogs to other healthy ones? |

| I'm unclear on what's being asked. I thought that you wanted to see if larger dogs end up getting c-sections as well as tinies. in order to do a poll, start the thread then click on the bottom where it says "poll" then fill it in. hope this helps |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | Why just limit it to 5 lbs or over? Why not TINIES??????? Never had a c-section on mine. Friend had one done on her 4 lber and with her other 4 lber, they pulled for over an hour to get the pup out!

| As I have mentioned before I know of a breeder that schedules c-sections without ever allowing her dogs to start labor. She said she does it so her dogs won't have to go through so much pain. Guess SHE never went through a c-section. They have 4 litters each this way. |

Let me clarify this is NOT me by they way..I don't schedule sections. Someone started a rumor that I had 5 sections on a female and I wonder if they saw this and assumed.. | |

| C sections can be required on any bitch even the larger sized Yorkie female. Mine usually free whelp but I have had two in 10 years of breeding that had to have a section. Both were six lbs both were 2 years old, both were in good shape with no known history in the previous pedigree of there being sections required. In both cases, the bitch went into labour, pushed out the bubble then shut down, labour stopped and the vet gave alittle oxytocin, still no labour. This was in 1995 and the bitch had two puppies in there, both were pretty big and the Vet thought likely to do with size of the pups. So a section was done but the Vet assured me she could free whelp next time. I waited a year, bred her again, this time three puppies, they were a little smaller but same scenario. THe problem now was determined she had uterine inertia where labour starts but stops and she closed up again so pups had to be sectioned. I don't breed if I find out they can't free whelp so she was spayed. I have another bitch now that had her second litter last Sept. First litter, section was required but both pups were dead, one quite early in the pregnancy. the Vet thought that's why labour never really proceeded as it should have. Bad luck, I waited a year bred her again, two live pups but had to go csection as she also had uterine inertia which I knew what it was from the first experience. She was spayed early this month, I won't breed her again. BUt there can be different reasons for Csection. A pup can be too big, get turned the wrong way blocking the birth canal or if there are many puppies, the dam may not have the energy to finish pushing them all out. With a large litter there is the danger of the uterus rupturing and if that happens you better get in there quick as you can lose the dam pups and all. To know if that is possibly happening, you have to know labour isn't going the way it should be. |

| I respect everyone on this forum. I really do. However...I have to ask: How can you continue to do this? If I have a bitch that has problems from the beginning, or has had a c-sec , i'm gonna spay. NO MORE! |
