Calcium used in labor sometimes will help speed things along. It will make contractions more intense. I personally think it can be dangerous if used wrong and gets things going to fast. I will use it after the first pup if contractions seem weak or if she is having problems pushing the first out.

Progesterone test can be done to determine the right time for a csection.

Hormone Levels: Determining Breeding Times and Whelping Dates in Dogs

Since she isn't in labor yet, is the use of it putting the dog at risk?

Calcium is one supplement that deserves some special attention. Supplementing a pregnant dog is definitely not recommended. Giving calcium supplementation, especially late in pregnancy, has been linked to increasing the risk of eclampsia (low blood calcium) in nursing dogs. Excess calcium has also been linked to difficult deliveries, soft tissue calcium deposits in the puppies and certain joint abnormalities in the pups. For this reason, do not supplement your pregnant dog with calcium unless specifically instructed by your veterinarian.

It is often used when they are in active labor to increase contractions. Do I think harmful.. That's hard to answer. No if she is in active labor and used right. It has been my experience that using it before the first pup or before pushing can speed it up to much and it doesn't give the puppies to line things up. Sometimes that 12 hours of light contractions are needed to get the pups and body ready. That's only my opinion from what I have seen from breeding myself.

:thumbup: good post

Just in~little Mylie had a c-section this morning and had one puppy a little girl. Let's just pray that she also had her spayed. She is lucky to have made it and just needs to be placed in a pet home and loved. We really need to spread the word to anyone who will listen that breeding 2 lbs Yorkies to produce tinies is unethical and animal abuse.

From what I have been told Julie Gambill Pennington is who Tanisha got Mylie from and she needs to be outed too! Anyone know who she is?

The tips are just rolling in :thumbup:

I've just been told that the breeder is actually
linda steele of garlin yorkies in ohio

I just did a google search and her Website has been "SUSPENDED" :confused: :eek: :rolleyes: But looks like she is a member of YT ;)

Why did I keep looking???? :eek:

megansmomma you are impressive! Did you ever think of a career in private investigation? :)

More..................

Well Tanisha, you didn't really expect someone to take care of your dog from free did you? Let's see, you post about AKC fraud, you post about Welfare fraud, you post about your shoplifting arrests then you complain about not getting FREE emergency vetting? Come on lady you had no intention of paying for a Csection for Mylie you just wanted to scam someone out of a free emergency spay. WOW :eek: keep talking and proving what a horrible breeder and human being you really are.

If I were in this position with a pregnant 2 lb Yorkie in full blown labor after my vet told me csection I would have had my credit card tapes to my body so as not to forget it. Can you imagine driving 45 minutes and then having to turn around and drive back? All the while you have a 2 lb dog in labor. This woman need to not breath the air the rest of us are breathing. This is just totally disgusting!

Now after trying to scam this Vet she is going to blast him all over the internet. She just continues to fall to entirely new lows. She just $uck$ :mad:

It helps to have multiple spies too :cool: The information is now just pouring in. I guess Tanisha doesn't have as many "friends" as she thinks she does. ;) All that hard work she did on FB friending hundreds.....thousands of people...she will never be able to figure out who is watching her and keeping us all informed. :D

"They don't care about animals just about making sure they make a buck!!!! unbelievable!"

That coming from someone trying to make a premium profit off breeding tinies that should never be bred, actually made me laugh out loud, for real. Disgusting.

i know you're reading this so this is directed to Tanisha Trine, Tanisha Breton of www.pricelessyorkiepuppy.com, Michigan Yorkie Meetup Group and whatever other alias you go by ...

what gives you the right to play god with someones reputation when you are the definition of being morally bankrupt? you have a history of posting complaints when someone doesn't go along with your sick little plan to breed the tiniest dogs possible and sell them for outrageous prices. well tanisha how does it feel to have your name trashed all over the internet?

and how dare you say the vet doesn't care about animals and is just interested in making a buck when thats exactly what you are doing!!! at least the vet doesn't put it in writing in his online ads like you did when you posted offering stud service:

"ALSO SHOW PROOF OF A NEGATIVE Brucellosis test even if it is a females first time breeding. (The cost is only about $30-$50 which is cheap when you consider how much you can get for a litter of puppies)."

if you ask me whatever the vet charged wasn't enough to compensate him for having to deal with you and the nightmare you created because of your greed and stupidity.
your lucky he didn't call the authorities and have you charged with animal cruelty which is exactly what breeding tiny femals is!

Looks like poor Mylie was sold and ended up back at the breeder in less than 24 hrs only to be sold again to Tanisha and have to go through being bred . Poor girl this just irritates the hell out of me.

I seen her FB. Page she was in labor and was passing green fluilds so she decides to take the furbaby to the vet for a c section and from what she says one vet wouldn't even see them because she had no money but the great thing Is furbaby and mama are ok she had one girl!!!

Green fluid :eek::eek::eek: Why would there have been green fluid coming from the dog during a whelp. Would a breeder please answer why there would be green fluid. :confused:

What does one truly expect an emergency vet to do when someone shows up with a dog? Not defending the practice, but I can fully understand why someone would refuse treatment of a dog they have never seen before with someone who "forgets" their credit card. I'm sure they have learned the hard way that many of these pet owners promise to run out to get it (while the dogs are being treated) and just don't come back. It sucks that they have to refuse, but I do understand. I'm wondering if Tanisha would be so understanding of someone coming to pick up a dog from her "forgetting" forgetting their wallet and letting the dog go home with them with the understanding that they will bring the money by later. For some reason, I don't think so.

Now, if it were me, I would be calling everyone I knew and asking them to go over to my house and get my credit card, call the vet and give them the information over the phone rather than wasting time. But again, that's just me. My regular vet has my cc info on file, along with a list of people who are authorized to seek emergency care for my pets in the event I'm not around.

So let us recap: After being told by a vet that her dog would most likely need a c-section, she decides to have the dog labor at home on the off chance that the puppy would suddenly be much smaller and the pelvis much bigger. The dog then starts passing green fluid. Can someone enlighten me? In people, green fluid means either an infection or that the fetus has passed meconium in to the fluid due to distress- I would assume it is the same with dogs.

Only after the green fluid shows up does she get concerned enough to go to a vet. Without her money. Now, presumably she knows she is going to an emergency vet 45 minutes away. Presumably one would think that , knowing your girl was likely to require a c-section, one would have an emergency plan in place including method of payment. I know, I know, I am making presumptions about what a normal caring person would do...

After showing up at the vet without any $$, she gets miffed that the vet won't see her. She now presumably returns home (another 45 minutes) then returns to the vet again (45 minutes again) so the c-section can be performed. The dog has now been in distress for well over 2 hours. If that isn't animal cruelty on her part, I don't know what is.

Some people really should be horsewhipped.

Green fluid is a HUGE danger...means puppy is or has detached from the wall. This is an extreme ER to get the pup out and out alive. After at least one pup has been born it can happen and can be normal, but NEVER before!

:yeahthat: :bravo: :yeahthat:

So, that means Mylie is only 17 months old. Poor little thing.

15 months old when she was bred. This was messaged to me on FB.

Tanisha Trine
Thank you everyone... I cannot tell you how exhausted, elated and over whelmed I feel. I swear it's been a long time since I've cried that hard.....So you all know she had a scheduled c-section scheduled today at 12:00 well mother nature de...cided she was going to a little earlier...She went into active pushing labor at 1:30 am and wasn't making any progress (but at least we gave it a good shot) she just wasn't bring the puppy down at all. Then I went potty and she disappeared I searched for 15 minutes for her I was like what the heck where can she be lol then finally found her in our bed under the covers with her water broken all over my hubby's legs! he didn't even realize lol so at around 4:30 decision that enough was enough she wasn't making any progress I pulled the plug especially after I saw green fluid . I started calling some emergency vets picked one and raced all the way there a 45 minute drive since my vet didn't open till 7:00 am....See More
4 hours ago · LikeUnlike.Linda Steele thank goodness it's finally done
4 hours ago · LikeUnlike · 1 personLoading....Tanisha Breton ....cont. I got there and the vet wouldn't even see her since I didn't have cash in hand can you believe that??? I was shocked I even talked to him over the phone and he never said anything about making sure I had money (hubby get's paid t...oday I told the receptionist)She said didn't matter no cash no service I was hysterical I had already knew it was a super long labor and was frighten we'd loose puppy. So I cried all the way back home another 45 min. drive and headed to my vet's office at around 6:30 am and waited for them to open then to find out that just because they opened at 7:00 am the actual Doctor didn't get there till 7:30 am so the long and the short of it she had a c-section done and she is in recovery and we have 1 girl PUPPY and gezzz I am tired with no sleep and ready to just have another good cry of relief that we made it and mom and baby are here alive!!! THANK YOU GOD!!!! What a blessing!

Wonder if she walked to the vet. I just Google searched her home and the vets address and according to Google map it is only and 18 minute trip. Now lets just say for for argument sake it's 4 AM and the streets are empty, you have an in distress 2 lb yorkie who has green discharge while in labor would it take me 18 minutes to get there? I'm going to say we could cut that travel time IN HALF as I raced to save her life.

After reading your post and going the driving directions I now a very frightening thought come to my mind.......as I seem to always hit it right on the head I could just cry.

My guess it will only be a matter of time before Mylie starts to go "down hill" and that both she and her puppy pass away. :( I think her entire story is contrived to garner sympathy for her lack of morals and ethical breeding standards.

I would also put money on it if Dr. Sampson was given a call that he would not know anything about a 2 lb dog needing an emergency spay this morning. She probably died while giving birth at Tanisha's home. If my suspicions are correct this is animal cruelty to the next level.

Priceless Yorkie Puppy

I want to just throw up! :thumbdown:eek::thumbdown

Ok, once again. You have a dog you know will likely need a c-section. You decide to allow it to labor for several hours at home. Only AFTER it has gone in to distress do you start to locate emergency vets. Why are you calling around? Comparing prices? Why choose one that is so far away? If you had time to call around to vets, you should have had time to pick up your wallet. Just saying...

Sorry, I get that emergencies happen. But this wasn't an emergency until you let it become one. You knew the girl would require a cesarean. You know that costs money. You know that vet offices are closed for more hours than they are open. If you don't have that emergency fund readily available, then plan ahead and apply for care credit.

Poor, poor little Mylie. It really is a shame that she ended up with someone who is so completely clueless and cruel.

Dang this psycho lives like a mile away from me :eek:

What exactly is funny about this??? What is up with all the "lols"??? There is nothing to "laugh out loud" about.

P.S. - happy to hear you and your hubby were able to work things out considering you liked him so much you were trying to find a reason to exempt him from paying child support. He seems like a REAL WINNER. He didn't realize that a dog's water broke on his leg?? You are discusting.

That is so true. Between puppies it can mean a retained placenta that is dissolving but after more than six hours of active labor and no puppy it could be disaster. I don't think we will ever know the real story. I hope Mylie is truly OK!
