This totally depends on the dog and how many puppies. The puppies already demand calcium from the mother before they are born. (bone formation) We could have lost the mother and all of her puppies if we had not been watching her very closely BEFORE the puppies were born. The mother developed preclampsia and needed an emergency injection of calcium about 5 days before the puppies were born. We had been giving her cheese along with puppy food and this was not enough. The vet told us to supplement before especiallly if we knew the litter would be large. (more demand on mama's body) The puppies will get what they need if it is available (calcium), but they depleted all of hers and almost caused her to die |
I have been following this thread and just wanted to say you are in my thoughts and prayers for an easy delivery. Wow so many exciting things going on her @ YT today I don't wanna leave the computer!:p |
I've been following this thread and I'm so glad you took little Mama to a new vet. It sounds like she got a really good checking out and all the news was good:) Praying for a safe whelping and beautiful, healthy pups. |
How did I miss this thread? I just read through the whole thing and thought momma would have had her pups by the end and it now looks like tonight! Prayer's coming for an uneventful delivery. Hugs to momma. Can't wait until tomorrow to see pics. Glad the new vet was helpful to you. She was so lucky to find you as her new momma. |
Can't wait.. I just read the entire thread, and can not wait for the babies! I am glad that the new vet was so helpful. Your baby is lucky to have you. Best wishes, and Roxee and I are sending hugs, kisses, and prayers! We can't wait to see some pictures of the new babies. |
Good News! Kelly, so glad Kiley is doing well and you changed vets. This vet sounds much more attentive, and you need all of the assurance that is possible right now. Thinking of you and Kiley throughout the day, and will check mail when I return home tonight. Take care, Deborah |
