Oh, she healed SOOOOOO nicely! You can't even tell. She had 4 pups and all survived. ......and......she had a litter naturally last month (3 boys and a girl). She had no complications whatsoever. I skipped a heat as they recommend after a c-section and she is healthy as can be. I'll attach a picture of her belly about a week before she actually had the babies and the c-section....

She never did get sick or have any complications. I hope all goes as well for your beautiful girl. I did rub her belly every day (about twice) to keep it clean (just warm water on a wash cloth). That's Tiah and Grammy in the second picture.

That is so awesome that all of your puppies survived. I think that 5 was just to much for Tinkerbell and she just could not handle all 5. She is doing great with 4 though. That is so amazing that she could have babies again naturally. I was wondering about that. Thank you for the wonderful pictures. Man I thought Tinkerbell has a big belly...but WOW!!! Congrats on your new litter and I am going to try and find your nursery thread to see all the babies.

Normally my babies would be in the nursery, but they aren't yet. I've had a very....well, AWFUL Summer (almost died in addtion to a severe injury to my knee that required 2 surgeries). Anyway....my MIL ended up whelping my pups and keeping them for almost the first month of their little lives. I've had them a week now and will get pictures on this week. It is WONDERFUL having them home and getting to know them!!!!!

Oh I am so sorry to hear that. Well I hope that all is well and that your knee is doing fine. You have a long road to recovery and I wish you all the best. I am a Cerified Nurses Assistant so I have help tons of people with knee surgeries get back on their feet and home. Well have fun getting to know your little bundles of joy. I can't wait until mine are a month old. They are going to be so much fun to play with.

I'll give you a very helpful tip.....trim the hair off their ears at about 5 weeks old....you will be SHOCKED how much comes off and it helps the ears to stand tremendously. I've not had a pup with down ears at 8 weeks old. You'll also notice that their little nails will need trimmed before then. You are going to absolutely LOVE this entire experience from here on out!

PS Thank you for the well wishes on the knee....what an ongoing nightmare!

Sharonandtink · 09-23-2007, 07:07 PM

Thank you so much for that tip. I recieved my Tinkerbell and her ears were down and I had to tape them for a day. They just stood up after that. I will make sure to do that. I can't wait to see pictures of your wonderful puppies.

Congrats and thanks for sharing all the great pics! So adorable!

what beautiful bundles of Joy! "Congratulations to you & Tinkerbell! :]

Here is the update. We still have all four puppies. We have:

Pebbles (Big female)
BamBam (Big Male)
Delilah (Little female)
Yoda (Very Tiny Male)

The bigger ones are doing great and this morning Pebbles opened here eyes up. I am so excited. The others I am sure are not far behind.

Yoda is not doing so great. I had to take him into the vet on Friday because he was so small and not gaining any weight. They have kept him thoughout this weekend and are going to keep him until they think he is ready to come home. They think that he might have something neological going on because he gets these little tremors sometimes. It might just be something that he will out grow because he is so small. It is very hard to tell at such a young age and size. But he is almost 4 oz!!! That is some really good news. He does have his big brother with him to keep warm and for the company.

Other then that everything has been great. They sure do get around without even their eyes opened yet. I can't wait for them to get bigger. I will update the pictures in a little bit after I get some more homework done. They are just too good of a distraction right now.

They are so adorable. That is great news about Yoda, hope he continues to gain. I just had a litter of 5 yesterday and I can't wait until they open their eyes up & get a little more active. They are just so sweet & I can't stop looking at them. Good luck with your babies!!!

You and the pups are real beauties!!!
Hope all continues to go well for them. I know this has been quite an experience for you.
I posted a pic of my Tinkys' yorkie pups in the nusery today.

Today was not a good day for him I think. He is not walking as normal and I am sort of worried. He is gaining weight and currently at 8.5 oz. All the weight seems to be in his little butt. He looks like a pear shape to me. He crawls around with his little belly dragging. If he is like this tomorrow, I think that I am goingto take him in. He may not be in pain, but he is struggling to do anything. He loves his food though. He gets these cute little milk mustaches.

The pictures are Yoda from today. Enjoy.
