Not to mention the potential costs, even with things going fairly well.

| Please listen to what these breeders and other Yorkie owners are telling you, and for the love and safety of your little girl, PLEASE take her to a Yorkie Rescue, so that she has a better chance of living through the delivery, and that her puppies have the best chance possible. If you LOVE HER, you'll do the best for her. Please keep us posted on her as she progresses if you choose to keep her anyways. We all are praying for her and her pups. |

| Something else to consider IF you decide to surrender Momma...please try not to wait until the last minute. Any rescue group would appreciate the advance notice to be able to prepare for a surrender such as this one. A suitable foster home will need to be available & ready in addition to a vet who can handle this kind of high risk pregnancy and/or a possible c-section. Many things need to be in place to ensure Momma & her litter have the best possible future. A lot of information has been provided to you and if you'd like to talk to either Mardelin or myself please pm or call, ok? Or if you would please update this thread, I know I would appreciate hearing from you. Take care, Jo Ann

| Just Wondering I'm wondering if it might be possible for a rescue to Foster Mama till the pups are ready for adoption then return Mama ( Spayed ) at the owners expense back to the OP. That way she can be monitored through the rest of her pregnancy by someone with experience and the pups & mama will stand a better chance. The Rescue keeps the pups and finds them homes. Something to consider. |

You just recently had a litter so you already know the cost but cant you reuse your supplies???? Why are you asking for handouts if your "capable" of handling this momma and her litter?? I thought I saw your name here on YT before so I went back and read your other postings, this is the third time you've said money was tight and you asked for supplies for your numerous dogs (?), your uncles 4 chihuahuas that you took in. What happened to the litter you just had? they should have been ready for homes less than 2 weeks ago...do you not have any supplies left over?? I cant help but question the parents of this recent litter of yours...You got momma from answering an ad and if you came right away she was free? and you took her home and bred her?? Please forgive me if I'm wrong, but I dont want to see any YTers getting taken advantage of by sending you more pet supplies. Is this 3 pound pregnant yorkie real? I just find it really odd that someone could get so many free purebred dogs & even a pregnant one when you cant afford to buy them a blanket?? If anyone decides to send puppy supplies to you, I guess its their business, but I'd much rather give pet supplies to a rescue than someone on an internet forum with a couple of sad stories. Please put this little momma's best interest first and take her to a rescue. | |

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I didn't see anything that said the OP recently had a litter (possible I missed it in her posts...) But, if your father's best friend is a vet, wouldn't it be in the best interest of the dog for your mother to turn her over to him for help? After all, you really don't have a good history on this dog and you don't know what problems she might have. 3 seems to be a little young to have had to have all her upper teeth removed unless there was some other underlying problem. And just because the original owner said they are 100% sure the father is another yorkie doesn't mean it's true. If they left her out in the backyard, even briefly, it could be the neighborhood Casanova through the fence...

Thats a great idea to turn her over to the vet, if the vet is willing to do it. | |

| What would be nice is if the OP would kindly update this thread. Many on here were very concerned for her situation and immediately went out of their way to help her...including some of the best of the best breeders and rescue groups. Just saying...

| it would have been nice if everyone didnt immediately start saying stuff like she should release her to some one else..........like people were making sound like she wouldnt be able to take care of her...........i really felt sorry for her............yes it is a bad situation...but it didnt warrant her being jumped............all she was asking was information...cause she was trying to help this female out........im not shocked at all that she hasnt come back to update us..........can you really blame her?

| I have to agree with Tnyorkiemom. I've read through the entire thread and just feel horrible for OP. The most advice she's getting is that she must give this pregnant dog up and/or spay her now, killing the unborn puppies. Sorry if I'm stepping on any toes here, but I think it's pretty clear she wants to keep the momma dog, and wants to do what she can to help her through this pregnancy. Yes, it can end horribly, but it can also end with a healthy mom and three puppies, too. The best thing might be to just give what advice can be given to her so she can get the momma through this and help the babies thrive once they are here, IMHO. She did take in the dog, and it does seem like it wasn't taken care of properly before (ie, teeth missing, not spayed in the first place). I think she wants to do the right thing, but without aborting the pups.
