| The Little Orphans Here is a Pic of one of the 2 little girls left in my care. Their mother died during a botched C-section, and I've been bottle feeding now for the past 2 weeks, they've gained an ounce and a half each, and are getting feisty on me! Up to 5 and 5.5 ounces, the smallest has her little eye open and is starting to try to walk. Thought I'd show how sweet they are. They definately love their "bottle" I'll be glad when they are weaned and I can SLEEP again.

| Aw! Just to adorable for words. Poor things lost their mommy while she was bringing them to the world. I am sure their mommy is resting in piece at rainbow bridge with knowing they are under your care. By the way I have visited your site and it and all your babies are superve. |

| Thanks, that is sweet of you to say.. I love all my kids dearly! I hope their mother is resting peacefully, her death was certainly very sad. I unfortunately didn't know her, or her owner. There is a vet here who refuses to be educated in technology, but is very "cheap" and he uses a morphine pill to put dogs under for surgeries, well unfortunately for her, and these little girls, that was too much for this poor yorkie mama, and she and the other 2 babies died. I wish someone would force him into retirement, he's very old, and a real liability. I'm just glad I was able to help out.

| Hat's off to you for taking in those precious babies! To me, anyone who takes in orphaned or rescues unwanted babies has my utmost respect. Don't get me wrong, it takes special people to open their hearts and homes to furbabies but it takes someone extra special to open their hearts and homes to orphans and rescues. I look forward to reading more updates on the babies Suzi |

| What a good soul you are Becki! Those little ones need someone to watch over them right now and they've got you. It's sad when some people just take price as their guide to get services done, for something as important as a c-section you better have faith in your vet. Good luck with the little ones...

| Babies........ You are so kind to take in those little babies! BLESS YOU HEART!!!! Such a sad, sad story about the Mom and other two babies. That vet needs to have a law suit or two files against him for malpractice..... What are you going to do with those little ones? I visited your web site and it's just wonderful. I loved the babies playing. SO CUTE!

| Oh my goodness Becki....you are really special for doing this. I will look forward to updates on them. That vet should be made to retire, how horrible of him to do this. |

| My goodness, how precious! I too had orphans late last yr. They are too precious for words. I was lucky and had a surrogate mommy, but still had to face lots of worries and obstacles. Good luck to them and to you. Best wishes, |

| Awe! You are such a great mommy! They're very lucky to have you taking such great care of them! As for the vet.. old science vets.. the ones who out right REFUSE to change with the times and improvement of practices.. He has to GO! You should really consider reporting him and have him permanently booted! His refusal to change with the advance of science cost the life of that poor dog.. And goodness knows how many others.. I guess the owner of the girl who passed away just didn't want the babies?? If so I can see why they went to such a vet..
