This is too young for an intentional breeding, but accidents do happen and once they happen, you just got to deal with it. There is also the chance that an abortion could interfere with her ability to have pups later. If these pups have already been conceived, then they deserve a chance to live unless carrying/delivering them could harm the mom. > Marsha > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sue E > To: [email protected] > Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 6:19 AM > Subject: [Chihuahuas] Unwanted pregnancy or just female development? > > > My female chihuahua went into heat on the 12th of last month.
