YT 2000 Club Donating Member | This reminds me So I have finally found out how to use Skype. And what does this have to do with this posting. Well, it is an amazing tool, and you can videocam conference thingie with it. So we have a very important meeting via Skype; and one of our breeder participants had pups 5wks ago today. She attended. She with her dark circles, is in the Whelping room; with her and Mom's pups all around her. The breeder has only left the room for the most basic of necessities. So even with large breed puppies, the breeder the "good" ones feel on call 24/7. Do we risk hypoglycemia? No not really, But cold pups for sure, or pups that fail to latch; and our litters tend to be large, so we need to rotate on the nipple. And supplement feed. We weigh 2x per day, and or at the minimum once per day. And then there is the very heartbreaking fact that sometimes despite all you do, the Mom (who doesn't mean it) sits on a puppy and kills the pup. Even at 4 wks old they are not yet out of danger from that. Momma requires lots of feedings (she is a big dog), and also we often times literally have to beg the Mom to go outside to eliminate. Mom does not want to leave the litter for one second, I've seen a bitch hold all elimination for 36 hours!!!!!!!! There is no way in hell that I would take a pregnant near term bitch to a motel, with a high chance she might go in labour. That would be my personal idea of hell. Or another nightmare would be, a natural disaster that prevents me getting my dogs into the vet. Hurricanes, tornadoes, meteor hits; you get the idea.

I've learned so much from just this one thread about this tragic loss. These are things I can pass along to those considering breeding.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | I am certain the OP has beaten herself up plenty...no need to continue to do so. Start a new thread if you wish to inform others.

| Oh, OP, I hope you don't feel beaten up. I and so many others just like to recognize and appreciate the good information our reputable breeders share with us and put so much of their heart and soul into writing in threads about breeding and sick dogs. I so appreciate the time and caring they take to try to help all of us, even if we are not ever going to breed. At least it is information we may one day get a chance to pass along. I hope they never stop.
