It wasnt easy and she nearly had a Csection. She delivered one pup (still born), then 3 hrs and no pushing or pups. Went to vet, who took an X-ray and suggested Csection-not really based on size, just her lack of progression. OR Pitocin and wait. I did the pitocin, we waited at the vets office. She had some hard labor, but didnt progress. I was signing the papers for the Csection as she was looking tired. Then as we are discussing the payment, she breaks some water and starts delivering! Second pup is born, a girl, small and white. Then another 45 minutes later delivers a not fully formed stillborn pup :( Then another 1 hr and the last and biggest pup was born, twice the size of the other living pup. The black one you see in the pics, lil miss fatty made her way into the world. Labor started at 730am, and we went to vets after a few hours, and then we werent home until 3am. When I helped the pups latch on, showered and went to bed. I have a question for you all. During all this fiasco, which I didnt of course have 1500.00 for a C/S lying around. I was amazed they didnt want to set up any payments. I have been going to this vet a long time. I had the vet (not my usual vet-one on call) tell me they needed 700-800 down and would only consider payments if I was declined on some vet credit they offer. But they were not so much worried about my dog, infact willing to turn her away over money. the vet even went so far as to tell me I could sign over my dog to her and then she could do the surgery. I was stunned. I of course was willing/able to put down 500.00 and pay it off in 2 months. While Im sure they are concerened people wont pay, the williness to send her out, knowing she could die asstounded me. Luckily my dog decided to finish the deliver then and there as I was signing the forms, and making other arraigements to pay. Initially, of course I didnt want a C/S due to it being hard on her, and I didnt like they immediately went to that. I had been into see my vet that day, who thought that my mother would do fine with the babies she had. He didnt expect a C/S which is why I took her in. Any way, it all went well. Well, so to speak. We only have 2 pups, but she is a fantastic mother! See links to pups, mom and dad below. Oh, I forgot to mention, I cant say when the last time I cried so hard, and dry heaved so badly over being so distraught. Its amazing what these dogs bring to your family, and how attached and worried one can get. I know I did. http://img521. imageshack. us/img521/ 2281/pupsrp7. jpg pups! http://img131. imageshack. us/img131/ 4180/blackxw2. jpg http://img521. imageshack. us/img521/ 2905/sophiaji9. jpg mom http://img521. imageshack. us/img521/ 3346/kodamy3. jpg dad ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
