does anyone have any experience with a yorkie giving birth? General Dog Discussions
please no negative comment- I am NOT a byb, I bought my dog back in november. She is 2 years old, the lady I got her from said she was unable to have babies, her vet confirmed it- they never did the actual "testing" to find out. When I got her she was in heat, my vet saw her and said that her not being able to have babies could be true since she was not spotting ir bleeding, but I chose to have her fixed since it can cause cancer as she gets older- she had an appointment to get fixed the 21th of this month. I thought she was sick because I switched her food, and she had loose stool, gas a slight bloating, I called the vet and they said to put her on rice/ boil chicken and slowing add food, thursday I noticed her belly was VERY bloated, so I called and brought her in to make sure it wasn't anything serious (bloat,infection and so on) Comes to find out they did an x ray and she is pregnant- with 3 possible 4. They vet said she is due any day now, gave me some hand outs and told me to research. I have done so much Research, my head is spinning,I switched her to puppy food, im taking her temp 2x a day, made a whelping area, you tubed many videos to know what to expect, I'm prepared for a c section(having to bring her to the hospital if in dis stress, or complications) I'm nervous for my precious baby Anyone with some advice would be greatly appreciated**From what the lady said, the male dog that was not fixed that was around her was a yorkie as well, but who knows.....that why im prepared for a c section, i know if it was a bigger dog, its not a good scenarioThank you guys! Im trying to be calm It was def a SHOCK! Thanks so muchFirst off, this is NOT bs, I wouldn't waste my time- second of all she was born with a birth defect- no tail, it was not doc'ed- since she was around in tack males her whole life before i got her and went into heat 3 times with no spotting, her previous vet said she prob could not reproduce, no testing was done to confirm it- If you read my details she had an appointment the 21 to get fixed, if you knew so much, they cant spay them while "in heat""She is due any day now, the vet said nothing about the option to abort, and she did go over everything to look for and what to expect and what was "normal" and what was not- She is an excellent vet and told me to Research as much as I could to prepare myself- she will be getting fixed 8 weeks after giving birth, and how dare you come on her with such negative feedback, read the details, I asked for no negative comments. Im on her asking for advise, NOT someone questioning my situation- I have 3 children, the last thing I planned on was taking care of a pregnant dog and puppies, but im making the best of it and trying to get advice from someone who has gone through it before, so if you dont have any helpful advice, please do not comment on my question, I'm looking for info, not put downs.
