Molly had 7 puppies! Molly's puppies starded out at 10:48 a.m. and the seventh was born at 2:50 pm. we have 6 boys and 1 girl. The girl was born first! They all weigh around 3.5 oz to 5 oz. I'll have better weights later. The 7th puppy had a little trouble with the cord, he is a fighter though. But he needs a lot of prayer! |
7 pups wow. Thats a lot of baby's. will pray for the little one, hope mom and all 7 do great. |
worried about #7 His cord looked like a mess of intestine and the vet walked me through the cutting of the cord. The first 6 were ok. but since there was so musch cord still attached mama thought it shouldn't be there and chewed it too short and he started to bleed out. we got the blood to stop twice and it has been 4 hours since his birth. But he is just not as active as the rest. I'm not sure what to do next. |
Congrats on your HUGE Litter!. I will definitely pray for the 7th pup:heart79: |
Congratulations on the birth of your large litter. I will be saying some prayers that pup #7 will hold true to the phrase of "Lucky Number Seven". I'll check back later for further updates. |

Oh poor baby, :hands: Can you get him to the Vets office? Please keep us posted. |
# 7 #7 is with mom and staying warm. I will try to put him on to nurse again I'm just not sure how often I should try |
Oh poor little thing. did the momma eat on any of the intestines? |

Is he actively trying to nurse? If he is nursing but is not as active I would try moving the other 6 to a warming pad and letting him nurse alone. Do you have any nutri drops or nutrical. I would give him a few drops of nutri drops or a little nutrical. If he is not nursing you could get some puppy formula and feed him with a dropper. Best of luck to you. That is a large litter. You will have your hands full for the next 10 weeks or so. How big is the mother and father? |
It wasnt intestines the vet said. It was just a jumbled mess of umbilical cord. She did great with the first 6 but got confused with 7 and she was soo tired. It was weird though! nothing like the others. And he is still alive!!! |

At least she was polite enough to whelp in the daylight hours. |
Thank you! Thank you all for your best wishes. I'm going to sit with molly and babies. I'll be checking back later so if any of you have more advice for molly and me please leave me a message and I will be checking again soon. Thanks again! |
#7 is nursing!!! He started nursing on Molly when I put him on the nipple!:D |
CONGRATULATIONS....that is awsome! |
Congratulations... I've had moms chew the cord too close... and it seems like it bleeds forever... If it has stopped bleeding I am sure he will be OK. All the best to you and your lucky 7!! :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork |
